[pine valley]

So I can start playing

[storm blaze]

Indeed

[iron zealot]

Does anyone know if this has been resolevd?
https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/1-3-1-unvars-hegemony-doesnt-scale-with-intelligence/79270

Basically, the scaling proc chance (2%/int) doesn't seem to work and is just 2%--but that was a few months ago.

And apparently it was first reported in 1.0

[zealous prairie]

Does anyone know what the infernal shade necromancer build is? Its on the Maxroll tier list, but the guide still isnt up yet.

Does anyone know how it works? There is a video of someone killing the training dummy with something like that.

[molten basin]

Hey, how does the imprint system work in multiplayer?

[pulsar elk]

i want a 2t7 bow with both the prefixes being t7, does me having a 2t7 with one prefix one affix mess it up?

[candid elm]

Not necessarily. If you get a copy that has one of the prefixes you wanted and can also get it to have an open prefix slot as well, you could then just craft on the second prefix you wanted, then use Havoc to try to make both prefixes T7.

Getting the open prefix slot could be either: 1. if the second prefix is T1-T4, Despair to try to Seal, or 2. if T5+, Removal and hope it hits. Chart here with Despair Seal chance https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/seal-chance look at the last column for 4 affixes.

[pulsar elk]

ok i experimented a bit so yea even if i proc a 1 prefix 1 suffix, i hope to remove the second non t7 prefix and then put what i want and then hope for it to hit t7 with rune of havoc

[azure holly]

Its the echo completion bosses not spawning or unable to be killed. Wasnt clear in my post

[candid elm]

Yeah, it can be pretty random to get it all to work without running out of Forging Potential. But it is definitely possible. Remember to put in Glyph of Hope whenever you're not using something like Glyph of Despair.

binas imprint guide is good

[blazing glacier]

Bina is going over a farming strategy here, not talking about the ideal imprint bases or making 2t7 items.

@pulsar elk if you want 2x T7 prefixes your imprint should have 2x T7 suffixes and ideally a T1 prefix so you don't have to gamble on removal.

[burnt crag]

he talks a bit about getting the imprint / affixes you want, I might've linked the wrong vid. it's the 30 minute one.

[pulsar elk]

oh so the needing reverse of what i want is true? i saw that on some earlier messages about imprints

[burnt crag]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1rK6AX8eUA

maybe that one

[blazing glacier]

Yes. The tiers don't change spot from where they are on the imprint. They might reroll to a different tier but they will stay.

With double suffix T7 and T1 prefix you have a chance of adding a 4th affix which would require a removal or chaos gamble, but generally you would just;

1. Craft desired prefix
2. Seal undesired T1 guaranteed
3. Craft desired prefix
4. Havoc

The problem is that the affix reroll chance is really high so even if you imprint the T7 prefix you want it likely won't keep on the proc

[pulsar elk]

oh so with this youre building a 3t7/4t7 item, so basically any 2t7 proc i get i should craft on it and hope for the best

[blazing glacier]

It would be 2T7

you just move t7 from suffix to prefix

[pulsar elk]

the current bow i have on imprint is 2t7 one on prefix one on suffix, i should just remove the other prefix and craft like that to make it 3t7, all the times my imprint procced it was one prefix one suffix

[blazing glacier]

When you say 3t7 do you mean 3 tier 7 affixes?

because I am not sure what your plan is

[pulsar elk]

yes sorry i mean that i make it into a bow with 3 tier 7 affixes, what i want is the bow to become both tier 7 affixes to be on prefix

[blazing glacier]

An imprinted 2T7 has like <0.1% chance to become a 3T7 when it procs and its not even constantly procing

[pulsar elk]

oh no no thats not my problem, i just want to make the 2t7's to be on prefix

instead of 1 and 1

[blazing glacier]

yeah, so don't worry about 3t7 for now, that's only relevant if you want to hump hundreds of hours into minmaxing a character

[pulsar elk]

yea yea, so the 1 prefix 1 suffix can proc as a 2t7 in prefix?

[blazing glacier]

No, you have to craft the base

but you should never craft on your only 2T7 of a given base

as you could ruin it

[pulsar elk]

oh yea i have like 5 2t7s as of now, so basically any extra i get i craft on them hoping i make them 2t7 on prefix

[blazing glacier]

1. Imprint T7 prefix + T7 suffix, take the 2T7 you get, slam havoc into the procs until you get a good 2t7 suffix base with decent FP
2. Imprint that new base with 2T7 on suffix and try to remove a prefix
3. Imprint base with 2T7 on suffix and 1 prefix, ideally T1 - extra steps as needed
4. Take those procs, and do steps mentioned above to craft

[pulsar elk]

i have a 2t7 on both suffixes, oh so you make it a bow with 3 affixes, havoc reroll so the t7 gets to the prefix

[blazing glacier]

#🎥┃video-shoutout message see @ 3:06 of this video - I show crafting one

that's a bit harder than what you are trying to do though, since you don't care about the seal, you can just seal any bad affix and havoc

[pulsar elk]

ok thank you very much for all the info 🙂

[vernal sail]

What is a spell sigil?

Sorry if that's dumb to ask

[bright ether]

which primordial items cannot be purchased from skarven?

[slow eagle]

That should be the planned feature that adds more customization to our skills

[slow eagle]

Check that on last epoch tools with its item db (it tells you where to get the items) LE tools is pinned in this chat

[bright ether]

thanks

[icy drift]

What do you mean by that

We need some context

[tranquil briar]

Hey guys !
I am looking at the skill nodes for the Sentinel's Lunge skill :
Is there one that makes it go to the back of the target enemy ?
I assume the "assassin" class has something like that, but does the sentinel lunger would let me do that ?

[storm blaze]

Don't think so, no
What's the "assassin" class?

[tranquil briar]

I meant the rogue Bladedancer.
I assumed it had a "backstab" skill 😄

[storm wren]

https://www.artstation.com/artwork/5WzgbW

If anyone want to know what have the team tried before they got the final result about the new waypoint ⬆️

Pictures I posted are part of process only, full details in the link. 🤔

[quiet terrace]

That’s from mod

[bright ether]

huh, okay, my bad

[faint cape]

Rogue has been known to take assassination jobs

[sly fable]

However, I have to run the echo at like 500 corruption lower than id otherwise run because the boss is absurd

@burnt crag

[burnt crag]

I comfortably kill it in about 15 seconds on a reflect build but gotta dodge the blue mortars

at 1k corruption

[storm wren]

noob question, what scavenger hunt is

[bright ether]

its a type of game where you are given clues to find something

[storm wren]

the 2nd noob question, what the difference between time challenges and races?

...Why I think these options are too vague to understand

Possibilities for each options are overwhelming

@delicate dust Excuse me, what your understanding for races/time challenges/seasonal/kill challenges/scavenger hunts are please?
I can give you an example. Scavenger hunts. It's a type of game where you are given clues to find something but... let's say, which type of clues are you wish to give? By language or by graphics? How many clues will I need to solve a puzzle? No idea how to play a scavenger hunt in ARPG 😅

[candid elm]

Race example, when Season 1.2 launched there was a Hardcore Season race for who could defeat Uber Aberrorth first.

The race objective could be anything though. They're often first to do X thing. And it could be broken up into classes as well.

[storm wren]

I'm sure races isn't my deal :)

[candid elm]

Pick what is your deal. That's why it's a poll : )

[storm wren]

I don't know why I want to play in-game event...XD

xddddd sorry that's too funny but it's true

[delicate dust]

It's not at all locked in - those details and variations are something we could absolutely play around with from event to event.

[storm wren]

I can't help because no concept in my mind.

Pretty far away from a real gamer even...

Define the meaning of these options by yourself is cool though

[finite peak]

What builds did turn out the best this season?

[blazing glacier]

Reflect, bear eq, warpath, erasing strike, lightning blast, ballista, chaos bolts, and probably a few others I'm forgetting. Also different for HC vs SC

[finite peak]

thank you

[bright ether]

if the death message says i took 4.7k damage, is that after all modifiers like endurance?

[desert tree]

Yes

[bright ether]

hmm...maybe i need to change things up so i can get 180 total attributes with 2x red rings to get more survivability

[desert tree]

That would make you tankier indeed

2 questions
What is your Primordial item?
Why not using Traitor Tongue?

[bright ether]

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/flay-mana-lich-guide#gear,-idols-blessings-header its the one from this build

if im taking 4.7k damage in one hit im not sure if its possible to be tanky enough to survive that

since that is already after all the modifiers converting it to damage over time and transferring it to mana

i think one thing preventing this build from being super tanky is the inability to regenerate ward quickly

[burnt crag]

that's why I recommended jella's setup

[blazing glacier]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfGDczFPQDo survive uber slam, np

[bright ether]

yea, you are using a significantly different build, but it looks like uber slam is only dealing about 3k+ damage to you?

you do have 2x red rings but i wonder if thats neough to drop a 4.7k+ hit down to 3k or so

[blazing glacier]

not my build but no

[bright ether]

my problem now is that rampant beast at 880 corruption can one shot me with 4.7k+ damage

and thats after endurance and all modifiers

[rocky rapids]

the maxroll version of flay is omega squishy when death seal isn’t up

[bright ether]

including converting a big chunk of hit damage to damage over time

[blazing glacier]

2x RR only reduces damage by like 19% plus you need to consider opportunity cost. You are giving up 4 ring affixes most likely, the mana, and base crit on Phantom grips. Plus you'll need to change some other stuff to get an extra 30 or so attributes on top of RR

[bright ether]

yea thats what i feel as well, its okay for farming since you can kill everything quickly but if you cant, then you are going to have problems

[bright ether]

yea, thats part of the reason why i havent started using 2x red rings

[rocky rapids]

it’s not even like it’s more dmg than noobzor’s version by some super substantial margin. iirc it’s like 6% more dmg with 2lp shattered worlds or smth

[bright ether]

i think swapping phantom grip for red rings will make you lose quite a bit of crit and dps though?

[blazing glacier]

Also rampant beast just does a lot of damage if you are almost at 1k corruption, you aren't supposed to face tank most of those attacks

[bright ether]

its not even big telegraphed attacks like uber's slam though, i keep getting hit for 4.7k+ with attacks like "super fang", its not super long telegraphed attacks

[rocky rapids]

hence why you use traitor’s tongue over rune dagger to cap crit

[blazing glacier]

Yea beast is just one of those things that's a lot more dangerous than anything else you fight. If you are playing on SC you either farm at a reasonable corruption for most content and accept that the beast can oneshot you, or you farm at a safe corruption for beast and miss out on rewards from everything else you could be doing at 1kc.

I think it's probably better to get enough damage to instantly kill rift beast so it can't hit you rather than trying to get enough defense to survive those attacks 🤷‍♂️

[sonic saddle]

Wish that was an option for me :L

[thin lily]

Up until when is the current season going?

[bright ether]

march iirc

[quiet terrace]

March 25th

[thin lily]

thank you both!

[near vale]

Which weaver tree nodes should I absolutely not take playing HC?

[sonic saddle]

Not a HC player but "fury and fortune" amd "crystal growth" are both ones i know to be dangerous

Potentiall "dual destruction" and "the mage bane" as those can result in you having two potentially high damage enemies to deal with at the same time

"The abyssal trap" i'd avoid as well

[visual wraith]

Got a weird issue with the game. Have to use cell phone as hotspot since Spectrum took a shit in the wind. Game plays well enough, but chat is completely unusable. Can't even open up the chat box. Any ideas?

[toxic echo]

there is a known, really hard bug to fix, where when you open the game sometimes chat doesnt load right. if it happens, f8 and report and reload the game. doesnt generally happen too often

[fluid plover]

What is the different of block mitigation and block efectiveness? The describtion on both say "the percentage by which damage is reduced when you block a hit" on both

Whats the different? And is this is possible to block any type of attack?

[candid elm]

What are you looking at that mentions block mitigation? The in game guide has details on the math or it's online here https://www.lastepochtools.com/guide/section/block

[candid elm]

You can block anything that Hits, so not Damage Over Time by default as DoTs don't hit.

Unless you have an item or passive that says otherwise. For example the Unique Shield Countenance of Majasa https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAwRgzALCJA allows you to use a portion of your Block Effectiveness to reduce DoT damage.

[storm wren]

Oh this shield looks interesting... Petrified enemies for 2s and be able to...Block dot

Petrified enemies and blind enemies, what the difference between them?

[candid elm]

It says on the item in the grey text, "Petrify is a stun, preventing all movement and action."

You can also look up Ailments here https://www.lastepochtools.com/ailments/

Blind https://www.lastepochtools.com/ailments/blind

[storm wren]

.....Oh "Blinded enemies cannot critically strike".

Petrified sounds cooler a lot

https://www.lastepochtools.com/build-guides/katts-divine-forged-weapons-forge-guard

Damn single build guide for how to use this unique shield only :(

That's pretty cool if warlock have a build to use that... It will improve the defense a lot

Why stack necrotic resistance can improve offense only?
Use that as part of defense like more armour/more armour migrate to dot is cooler a lot 🤔

I don't know why caster can't own their shields... It's boring if shield is sentinel exclusive 🤔

[native sail]

Any Sentinel build that isn't 2H can use it to VERY good effectiveness, it is probably the single best shield in the game

[fluid plover]

Oh ty i was planning build on maxroll, i almost never play shield

[candid elm]

Ok I looked at their planner. It's showing how much damage would get reduced - mitigated - on a successful Block with that amount of Block Effectiveness.

[bright ether]

hmm whats a good strategy to get lots of favor for prophecies

like are there any woven echoes to farm

[candid elm]

Favor gain is tied to XP gain, even at level 100. So the killing lots of enemies at higher Corruption - which gives increased XP. Chart here https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/monolith-scaling you can see it increases until 300, then continues to increase but at a slower rate until 1k, then slows down more. Diminishing returns, but there's no cap. There's also a Weaver tree node for Favor Caches.

[bright ether]

hmm, but tomes of exp do not give favor right?

[candid elm]

That might have been changed at some point. Let me try to find it

[bright ether]

im thinking lostwood folly + unclaimed troves is probably the fastest way to farm favor then

[burnt crag]

I get about 250k per hour with this at 1k c

and a full unique ring proph load out is about 500k

[candid elm]

Hmm there were XP changes in 1.1, the Corruption increased XP diminishing returns I mentioned above was introduced then https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/last-epoch-harbingers-of-ruin-patch-notes/71790#heading--mechanics-experience

[bright ether]

to be honest i think the max level should be higher

feels bad hitting level 100 and xp becomes pointless

[candid elm]

it's still used for item faction favor at level 100

I can't remember about the XP tomes and favor. And I'm at work right now and can't check. But you can just look at your item faction before and after grabbing one to see

[bright ether]

i just tested it, i did see a small increase in favor, yea

[burnt crag]

1 tome moved me from 301859 to 303331

another to 304803

another to 306275

1 folly troves map full cleared 311826 -> 316390 favor

[rocky rapids]

shields aren’t sentinel exclusive, other classes just have a harder time capping block via “traditional” methods. rogue can cap block with corsair set, there’s also face of the mountain and bastion of honor among other methods

[bright ether]

is this currently bugged? its not giving me any ward per second even though i am on a low life lich build

[quiet terrace]

If you get hit do you gain ward ?

Gain ward fast I mean

They have changed the decay so you may be hitting an equilibrium with per second vs decay rate at high ward

[candid elm]

It works like Exsanguinous https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAzDMwRgo, Last Steps of the Living https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAzCcEZwViA, and Experimental Ward per Missing Health https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/prefixes/AGwdgrEA.

These all drain your Health and give you Ward based on your total missing Health. So you actually want to build +Health and % max Health. Larger total Health pool, you have more Health missing and get more Ward.

[south ruin]

Hey guys, sorry it's me again. I just got confused again.
Given my adaptive damage is 98, does my physical damage sums with my adaptive before applying the %
(98+8) * (1 + (318%))?
or it would be
98 + (8 * 1 + 318%)?

[desert tree]

The former

[south ruin]

phew, I'm relieved 🙂 thanks

[desert tree]

Otherwise adaptive would be a really bad stat 😂

[south ruin]

yessssss

[bright ether]

oh it does work, but i only went from 1.6k ward to 1.8k ward

[south ruin]

Why would I invest on cold damage if bow damage will be calculated for all elements?

[bright ether]

the difference between 10% missing health gained as ward vs 42% is only about 200 ward, thats lackluster

[quiet terrace]

If you gain more health you will be getting higher ward as SweetGoat said

[candid elm]

This part of the in game goes over the math https://www.lastepochtools.com/guide/section/increased_added_and_more
All flat added are added together. Then all % increased/reduced are added together - additive. Next the flat added total is multiplied by the % increased/reduced total. Finally each % more/less is multiplied in separately - multiplicative.

[bright ether]

it must be the ward decay giving diminishing returns

[candid elm]

For those two in particular, scroll down a bit farther on those pages and look at "Can be applied to". The Ranger's Prefix you're looking at is only on Bows and Quivers. Then look at the Cryomancer's Prefix, it's available on a lot more item slots so you can get it also on Ring, Amulet, Relic, Belt in addition to Bow and Quiver.

[faint cape]

Yeah, also it's multiplied by your max health and ward retention, so if those are low, your resulting ward will be low, too

[south ruin]

ohhhhh now it makes sense, thank you so much for the answers

I'm taking some time to read the guide

[candid elm]

It also gets better if you stack multiple of these, for example you can use Architects of Astral Blood plus Last Steps of the Living plus Experimental Ward per Missing Health. And get more Ward Retention and more Ward Decay Threshold. And the previously mentioned more Max Health.

Architects of Astral Blood also has a line that's "% of Maximum Health applied as a Ward Limit" so with a lower Max Health you'll also have a lower Max Ward.

It does seem counter intuitive, I'm stacking Ward, what do I need Health for? But it will help if you can get enough of it as the higher total missing Health gives you more Ward with those items.

[crystal jackal]

any new good builds that have emerged in the last month?

[blazing glacier]

1 tome or one set of tomes? Back in 1.0 tomes gave 471 favor

Then in 1.1 they reduced it:

The XP from XP tomes now scales up less drastically above level 60. This effect is most noticeable above level 85.

But you got 1472 favor from one book?

[crystal ember]

Might have been a collectors edition

[burnt crag]

oh these were favor tomes

xp tomes don't give shit, like 50 favor

[bright ether]

hmm, is there any site that has the drop rate difference of exalts between corruption levels? tunklab just shows the chance to get a certain unique at certain corruption levels, it doesnt show the chance to get exalts based on corruption

[crystal jackal]

any good 1 button builds like the old umblar blades falconer?

[bright ether]

i thought the umbral blades build was high APM?

most builds mainly use one skill anyway

[icy drift]

There's no real way to quantify this without representing it in a meaningless way tbh

Like if the tool took in an exact item description it'd spit out something like 0.0001% for practically everything at any corruption level if that makes sense

[bright ether]

hmm it would be nice if it could show % chance of getting, say, 2x t7 exalts at a corruption level, since it can already calculate the chance of getting lp2 at a certain corruption level

[faint cape]

idk if drop rates for random drops are known

If someone did reverse engineer the item rarity thing, it would be relatively simple to express it as the difference from 100c with no echo mods

[bright ether]

according to tunklab, theres very little difference between 800c and 1000c for the chance to get a boss unique?

wonder if i should drop down to 800c...im in this awkward spot when i can kill most stuff fine but i can get one shot by some stuff

[crystal jackal]

You're thinking of a different build, pretty sure you're thinking of the dive bomb build.

The one I'm talking about is even older where you would just use the teleport skill (aerial assault?) to move forward and everything would die

[blazing glacier]

Not really, just number of 1T7s / 2T7s per 10k drops at 100c, 300c, 500c, 1000c, 2000c, 5000c, 10000c, 50000c

We have info on that for imprints, and I think nemesis somewhere, but random drops I don't think so

[bold aurora]

wanted to know if anyone else is coming across cosmetics being reset every time after logging out

nvm came across the general pin

[wanton lodge]

Hello , quick question, what is the best way to farm small weaver idols for reflect shaman ? ( Health regen + health flat ) + ( flat damage reflected to attacker ) , i tried to reforge small but i get only 1 enchantement and i dont think you have prophecy for small weaver idols

[desert tree]

There is prophecies for Small weaver idols

And reforging is imo really bad

[brave snow]

how do i choose my mastery?

I want to play spell blade

but im not sure how to choose it, yet

i recently started

[storm blaze]

You'll get there as you follow the story

around lvl 16-20 or so

[brave snow]

o oki

[bright ether]

just be warned that many masteries are obsolete so the older ones are much weaker and you will have a harder time

[desert tree]

1. It seems like they are new to the game, whatever mastery they choose for the 1st playthrough won't really matter

2. I have seen every single mastery kill Uber Aberroth. So again, given the context of them being a new player, whatever mastery they choose won't matter

[bright ether]

it does though, my first play through with marksman was horrible compared to using void knight

[neat depot]

can u guys recommend fun easy build to chill in monos?

[bright ether]

does the harbinger in collapsing horizon also drop the same drops as the timeline boss, or only their own drops?

[faint cape]

Same as the boss fight, except can't drop harb eyes

[bright ether]

thanks

[twilit gull]

hello guys i'm going to create my first char this season and i would like to know how hard is it to find a palarus's sacred light during the leveling ? planning to play warparth/smite paladin

[bright ether]

not hard, https://lastepoch.tunklab.com has some useful drop info

[twilit gull]

ok ty !

[bright ether]

does lostwood folly add the same number of weaver mobs to every map or does it depend on map size?

[dapper solar]

The game is excellent overall. However, as someone on the autism spectrum, the lack of an instant NPC dialogue text option significantly impacts my accessibility and immersion. Has this feature been implemented yet?

[bright ether]

what do you mean by instant npc dialogue text option?

i havent seen anything like that in settings

[candid elm]

Let the devs know in #feedback or #suggestions that you'd like an option for that. The format in those sections is:

Title: title text. Feedback/Suggestion: text.

[icy drift]

It depends afaik. Might be wrong though tbh

[maiden yarrow]

I moved LE from 1 SSD to another SSD using the steam tools for that. Now it doesn't save costumes and cosmetics I pick. When I restart they are all reset. Anyone has an idea?

[storm blaze]

There's a pinned comment in #💬┃general that might help with it

[fluid plover]

do "melee critical hit", "critical hit increase" and "melee attack speed increase" affix on 2h weapon count as "effect that increase damage" on "foe cleaver" node in rive sentinel skill tree? ty

[worthy plover]

what exactly does this mean with regards to upgrade? The item gets random upgrades every time you kill a Harbinger?

[storm blaze]

Not random
the implicit changes

[worthy plover]

ah ok I think I understand thank you

[desert tree]

Once you have a killed a harbinger, that line will change to this

[bright ether]

i dont think so

[slow eagle]

foe cleaver affects

• %increased damage affixes (like %increased physical damage)
• flat melee affixes (like +50 melee physical damage)
• increased aliment chance affixes (like 87% chance to ignite on hit)

the lil text on the node is where this is in game

[bright ether]

how much effective hp do you need to avoid getting one shot by uber aberroth?

[icy drift]

Like 80k, but that's just barely avoiding getting one shot, you'd need insanely good sustain to survive at 80k, 150k - 200k would probably be more realistic

His biggest hit is around 56 000 damage

[heavy wedge]

Yo, I've been struggling with the servers for months. I found a small window during the day where they seem ok, but the rest of the time the game is totally unplayable. is anyone else struggling with this? I want to play the game, but I can't motivate myself to when the servers seem to constantly have a meltdown. I'm located in northern EU.

[cunning canyon]

I was in the same situation, Germany...
Lucky that it is fine for now, for weeks it has been good.

Nothing you can do on your end, sadly.

Do you have constant disconnects or do you have high latency with thr typical rubberband behaviour?

Even EHG is very limited with their options.
I hope for S4 everything is fine...

[heavy wedge]

Just horrendous rubberbanding and the whole game runs in slow-motion. Weirdly enough the latency is (allegedly) great and I have not had any disconnects. Maybe I should try different servers.

[compact trail]

Is there any idea when Last Epoch coming out on ps5?

[storm wren]

no idea

[compact trail]

Thats a shame. It looks like such a cool game

[vestal hare]

ok i need advice. im sick of looking for the gear with the statsi need to put over to legendary. wtf am i doing wrong to not get the gear i need?

[bright ether]

unfortunately its harder to farm the correct exalts compared to lp3 legendaries. your best bet is to imprint exalts, take weaver nodes that increase the number of exalts, imprint rampant coast 2x and take the nodes to increase rift beast spawns, then farm ancient bones to convert to amber and farm unclaimed troves + lostwood folly

[vestal hare]

been doing that. been stuck at 850c for weeks. think ill just go to poe2. tks for the advice though.

[bright ether]

im pretty sure poe2 has worse item farming, but okay

[vestal hare]

havent played this season, but ive never had to gind for week with nothing to show there yet. sure ill be disappointed at some point. just tired of the LE grind with exactly zero to show for it.

[bright ether]

what are you looking for? a specific double t7 exalt?

[vestal hare]

void knight, trying to find better gear to upgrade the lp. in the beginning, it was easy. multiple +4 erasing strike armors, havent found one in 2 weeks now. let alone able to make one. cant get the staats for the charm either. havent even seen them. tried to make experimental with the weaver, but it wont let me take from it to add to the lp.

[bright ether]

have you tried using runes of redemption and runes of havoc to swap the exalt affixes?

[vestal hare]

yea, but they are few and far between. i had 16 redemptions after a week. got nothing useful except 1 time on an amulet but it was a single 7 and the rest 1 or 2 with no fp left. so i didnt use it on my 2lp amulet.

i know im missing something. i just dont know what

[blazing glacier]

Are you COF? If so generic rune prophecies for havocs. Its incredibly easy to get T7 rare affixes since 1.2

Also imprint rampant coast and kill the beasts, they drop a lot of runes

Also technically you can rune of evolution a T7 desired affix into T8 then imprint that for a better chance to get it on the output, but it doesn't work as well on rare affixes and often isn't easier than just T7, craft desired affix, havoc slam.

[vestal hare]

t8 is sealed? will that have a chance to transfer with lp? yes CoF

[storm blaze]

it's sealed, can't transwer

[vestal hare]

"Are you COF? If so generic rune prophecies for havocs". what exactly are havocs?

[worthy plover]

Is there any way to reroll affixes on an idol within their ranges?

[blazing glacier]

Not transfer on to the unique, I mean transfer onto the items you get from your imprint

Step 1. Imprint item.
Step 2. Get item drops.
Step 3. Do some craft to make it better.
Step 4. Slam into unique

[blazing glacier]

Rune of Havoc https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/category/runes/items

[vestal hare]

playing by myself all the time. i never bothered to learn the names, just where they are and what they do. tks

[blazing glacier]

Yep. All you need is an affix shard of the affix you want, a few rune of Havoc, and an item with a T7 affix of the base you want. Craft desired affix, use rune of havoc, then you have T7 of desired affix

[bright ether]

how can i tell which echoes can benefit from lostwood folly?

[worthy plover]

how can an echo 9 squares farther past the first, away from the centre, be the same corruption value? I thought it was meant to increase going outwards?

[shut walrus]

I was having some minor fps lag and switched my graphic settings to medium. I now switched it back to ultra and the graphics are still showing up as medium even though everything is on ultra. How do I fix this?

[worthy plover]

I only realised if i scroll down there is an ultra setting nice

[shut walrus]

I fixed it. Just had to reset the game. 🙂

[worthy plover]

I was going to say try turning it off and on again but I didn't want to sound sarcastic

[shut walrus]

If i reinstall the game my characters will still be there right

[inner mountain]

@fallen parcel saw your question in #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs - if you're having performance issues, i and many others have had success with adding the -useallavailablecores launch option in steam to boost performance

[inner mountain]

Yes

[fallen parcel]

Cool i am gonna give it a try ty ,idk if its server lag but its like I move my character and its moves back where I was at one second before or takes time to pick items move

[inner mountain]

that souds like a latency issue yeah

[chrome crown]

is there a way to see the crit chance of a specific skill? so i know if the spyglass is working

[fallen parcel]

Does anyone know if getting multiple runes primal beasts evolution stack with each other?

[storm blaze]

They should

[desert tree]

No, you need to make the math yourself

[worthy plover]

Is there any real difference to playing online than offline when you play SSC and use the observatory? I get spikes that can be kind of annoying that kill me. Not frequently but they do seem to happen, so am thinking I wish I had made an offline character possibly didn't even think of it at first lol

[crystal jackal]

You can pause in offline mode and things load faster. Other than that it’s identical

[blazing glacier]

No, corruption goes up for the whole timeline when you kill Shade of Oreobis or down when you lower it in Sanctuary

[bright ether]

stability increases the further from the center, not corruption

[candid elm]

If you play offline, you still sign in and there's a chat and can use F8 to report bugs. If you set it to full offline, then there's no sign in and no chat, and full offline avoids server downtime. Both can pause the game, while online can't pause.

If you aren't interested in the online features like grouping with friends, season leaderboards, and Merchant's Guild item faction Bazaar, then offline or true offline would be a good fit for you.

In the past, cosmetics were only available online, but they recently made it so that if you log into online or regular offline at least once, you can access the cosmetics in offline and full offline as well.

[worthy plover]

Thanks for the replies, I might try it next time then pausing would be really handy come to think about it lol

[worthy plover]

Where was I able to reroll an attribute affix to another attribute affix? I can't see it anywhere now. I think it was a woven echo but can't work out which one

nvm just found it

[candid elm]

Oerden's Watch woven echo. Can swap all Attributes except Vitality. Requires 1 Forging Potential to use.

[worthy plover]

ah crud I wanted to change vitality as well lol!

[chrome crown]

is the Spiders ailment a curse?

[desert tree]

Aspect of the Spider from Nest of Nightmare mace?

[candid elm]

There's a list of ailments here. You can type curse in the filter to see only the curses. I'm seeing two that show up if I filter by spider and neither are curses. https://www.lastepochtools.com/ailments/

[chrome crown]

yeah the nest of nightmares one
guess its not a curse as the list says

[desert tree]

Correct
It's just a debuff

[sonic saddle]

Aspect of the spider is from dedication of erased primalist, not nightmare mace

[bright ether]

do the chests in "vault of the barnacle king" count as "lost caches" for the purpose of the weaver tree?

i dont think they do, not sure if intended. the chests in that woven echo always spawns a loot lizard, but if they are lost caches, they should have a chance of spawning more than 1 lizard, and they never do that. and im not getting any imprints from them either.

[desert tree]

Ah correct
The mace only apply "spiders"

[fallen parcel]

Yeah i got like 3 rare runes and 4 runes evolution i aint ending that evolution chain ever its like 2-4 havoc per rift beast killed

Worst results

[sonic saddle]

Definitely get imprints from them

The guaranteed loot lizard spawn prolly just supercedes the chance of a loot lizard spawn from the tree

[bright ether]

odd, i did like 20 vaults of the barnacle king and got 0 imprints (1x t7 and 1x t6 exalt)

[pastel path]

So I've got an ARPG itch to scratch but I got frustrated. D4, you're godly too soon. PoE2, you're getting one shot even with almost BiS and there's too much punishment.
What are the current meta builds, that aren't getting punished too hard ?

[storm blaze]

Spin to win void knight
reflect shaman is good
I don't really keep up to date with meta builds so someone else has to chime in

[pastel path]

Is maxroll a good resource for tier list and build ?

[storm blaze]

Uhh I probably wouldn't trust their tier list.
At some point they had one of the strongest builds of the game in low tiers

They're good enough for lvling builds and then some.
You could also check the video shoutout channel
Frozensentinel has some banger builds linked, like his lightning blast build

[bright ether]

mana flay lich is extremely strong but has high gear investment, especially the idol farming will take a long time

the maxroll version is squishy as well, theres another version that uses traitor's tongue + primordial nest relic

squishy for uber abberoth only though, as you can kill everything else easily

[pastel path]

I see thanks. So spin to win void knight seems to be a good bet. The maxroll build then ?

[storm blaze]

I guess it works
I haven't followed it and I guess it's the one that has the a lot of -mana cost on helm and you need that for it
But you can just lvl it with the -mana cost nodes on warpath if you want to lvl as warpath all way

[pastel path]

thanks i'll keep that in mind 🙂

Oh also. Merchants guild or circle of fortune ? I remember a weird broken economy in previous seasons in merchants guild, is it still the case or a good way to get gear now ? Especially for a meta build I guess, as things might be more expensive

[candid elm]

It's however you prefer to play the game. The devs give two options so you can play how you like! If you want to get the exact item you're looking for from an auction house like screen, you'll like Merchant's Guild. If you prefer to grind the items yourself, you'll like Circle of Fortune. Just note that MG items can only be bought/sold once in LE and there's no direct player to player trades. It's all done on an asynchronous Bazaar - so the other person doesn't need to be online. Also if you want to play offline, play CoF as MG doesn't give you any benefit offline.

[candid elm]

I enjoy the loot explosions from CoF and play that every Season. So far I have been able to get every build I wanted to play working. But if there's one specific item the build needs to function, and it's a difficult to farm item, it can be frustrating to keep trying for it and never getting it. I usually play a different build until I have the items and then Respec

[sonic saddle]

their tier list is kinda intended to be explicitly "only between these builds and only as we built them"

and their job was content creation not optimisation

[bright ether]

which abilities in uber aberroth are one shots? the smash at the start of the fight seems to be a one shot, what else

the giant energy beams to be a one shot as well

[rocky rapids]

it depends on your ehp entirely

some builds can facetank literally everything while others will die to his melee attacks

generally timeshattering slam, pizzas, necrotic slashes and the beam at the end are the most dangerous ones

[bright ether]

im probably bad at this game but its hard for me to see what the boss is doing with all the explosions so i cant tell what its going to do next unless its a very obvious wind up

thats a common thing in ARPGs actually, all the special effects typically make it hard to see what the boss is doing

[rocky rapids]

necrotic slashes are particularly important to avoid as even if you can facetank everything they reduce allres by 10% for the rest of the fight and cannot be cleansed so even if you can tank them you really don’t want to be

[bright ether]

like, i cant even tell what the necrotic slashes are supposed to look like

[rocky rapids]

it’s a very difficult fight that can get overwhelming particularly visually at first, lasers stay where you place them as do the orbs if you don’t delete them with the fire tornado so you always have to mind your positioning

[rocky rapids]

he only does it in the 2nd to last phase (the phase where the 2nd harbinger spawns) it’s like aqua in color and he does 4 slashes that release waves

[bright ether]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/builds/filter/language=en&item=UAzAcGYBYFYg am i missing something or are there almost no builds using the Bane of Winter unique

[faint cape]

There's not a ton - it's viable, just not popular

[bright ether]

theres only two builds on that site

[blazing glacier]

Yea its kinda not that great. The proc limit is pretty low and the skill doesn't have it's own tree plus the scaling on it isn't that high

600% effectiveness is kinda okay-ish, but without a tree, meh

[faint cape]

Yeah, but not every build gets a guide made for it

The spell proc is okay, on a shatter strike build, it deals enough damage to help clear feel a little smoother

You can't really build around the proc, but the spear itself is decent enough and synergizes with dex stacking on mourningfrost

[fallen parcel]

Many items that have a proc chance or limit very low are pretty much useless, you could use them but i would prefer to play a build better in any case that doesnt need that ,look at volcanus and 15%chance to proc magma shards could be good to base the build around it ,but its trash. a couple of items proc lighning blast but not 100% so they end up being rather weak trash 2handed sword and dagger come ro mind maybe someday they revisit this uniques to make them viable who know maybe the corruption stuff can help them.

[bright ether]

does corruption affect items dropped via prophecies? what about the type of affix on idols?

[blazing glacier]

unique LP yes, not sure what type of affix means but it doesn't give you rarer affixes if that's what you mean

[chrome crown]

soul furnace quest echo has been bugged for months now
the soul furnaces are invisible and arent shown on the map so you have to attack everywhere in the map until you kill them

[toxic echo]

yes. its not going to get fixed until s4. they really cant put out bug fixes with how far ahead the internal build is

[fallen parcel]

Yo is there a limit to stash tabs or something like that for me it says you need more gold to buy stash tab but I have 28 mill and it costs 955k to buy one

Kinda weird

[storm blaze]

The limit for stash tabs is like
200?

[faint cape]

Yeah, 200 max

[fallen parcel]

Maybe i am at max time to get rid items below 2t7🥲

[faint cape]

Yes, you are at max, the 200th tab is 950k

I thought they changed it to show a "you are at max" message, but maybe I imagined that

[wanton lodge]

Hello, i want to farm some shatered world , wanted to know wich is the best bossing build in this season to farm fast uber aberoth and aberoth ?

[fallen parcel]

Maybe they should say something like that

[fallen parcel]

Abomination necro ,bear beastmaster are the best at killing uber ,lich mana flay good after those.

[slow eagle]

Judgement paladin still just face tanks it right?

[fallen parcel]

No

[slow eagle]

Could not remember if that was changed

[wanton lodge]

i got a reflect shaman for speedfarm , those 2 build are way easier and faster ?

[fallen parcel]

Healing effect gets reduced now by like 50% per stack you have to continuously clean that and now its a lot worse than before cause they did something to holy symbol in judgemet skill i think

[slow eagle]

Ah

[candid elm]

No, they're faster boss killers

[fallen parcel]

I dont play that though to be fair

[slow eagle]

Never actually did judgement vs abby, I just remember that being a lot of people’s go to

[fallen parcel]

If you have 10 frailty stacks its like 500% reduced healing effect so your healing damage is a lot worse than before

[wanton lodge]

never played necro , maybe time to try abomination !

[fallen parcel]

Abomination needs even less gear than bear ,both are pretty strong

[wanton lodge]

and wich cap the highest ? i have a good setup on my reflect for double t7 farming and so , i think i can do both build quite fast

[candid elm]

You may want to look up a video on how the abomination summon works and make sure you're ok doing that. You only need to do it when you log in and if the abom dies. It stays when you go between zones / town.

[fallen parcel]

Both destroy uber in under 2 min with crazy investment maybe can lower that to 30 to 60 seconds .

[wanton lodge]

is there a way to mix 2 loot filter so they get the restriction of the other ?

or need to do it by hand ?

[storm blaze]

Need to do it by hand

[candid elm]

there's online tools to help, but you're still going line by line

[shut walrus]

hey guys. im wondering if I can switch t7 strength for t7 intelligence if i have enough FP in the woven echo

[fallen parcel]

Yes orden watch

[slow eagle]

<@&1161418687471956101>

[bright ether]

sealed affixes cannot be used for legendary crafting right?

[icy drift]

Correct

[bright ether]

a body armor dropped with 2x t6 and 1x sealed t7...

[faint cape]

Nemesis is real good at making bases like that. You can imprint them to maybe get more high tier items that are not sealed

[bright ether]

so if i have an exalt imprinted with 4 affixes, can it drop with 3x affixes only?

[meager junco]

possibly

[shut walrus]

when I apply doom on hit how long does the doom last for?

[slow eagle]

LE tools has a giant aliments list on it

[viscid pine]

Hello everyone id like some help since reading the game guide is not enough so im following a build and this guy has this item where he has 697% elemental damage over time as you can see in the screenshot.I need someone to explain me to me how i can do the same 🙂

[ionic void]

That’s legendary crafting. You need two things: the unique you want with at least 1 legendary potential, and an exalted item with 4 affixes and a t7 affix in the main one you want

Then you do the temporal sanctum dungeon. At the end you can sacrifice the exalted to add one selected and possibly multiple random affixes from that exalted to the unique

Maxroll has a more detailed guide if you look up legendary crafting

[viscid pine]

where can i find the affixes?

[ionic void]

Throw it on the smithing anvil. It’ll show the affixes and their tiers

Note that tier 7 affixes can’t drop until empowered monos and you should largely ignore legendary crafting if you aren’t at that point yet

[viscid pine]

so affix is the same as prefix and suffix right?

[storm blaze]

yes

[viscid pine]

Ok looks like im getting somewhere. so if for example i want to put the increased elemental damage over time as in the picture i need to find a unique double hand Staff which has this affix at tier 7 ?

[slow eagle]

you find the unique (orange colored item) with legendary potential

you then find a purple item (exalted item) with the affix you want at T6 or T7 (you can't craft to T6 or T7 gotta drop like that)

you then combine these with the eternity cache (thing at the end of the temporal santcum dungeon) to make the legendary item (red)

[viscid pine]

ok now i get it .Thank you all !

[dusky path]

i looted an item with a sealed affix of +1 maximum skeletons, how do i search this mod on the trade bazaar?? its a 2-handed staff and NONE of the 48 affixes are the combo mod of minion critical and +1 maximum skeletons

[slow eagle]

That’s a champion affix

[dusky path]

ahhh ty, profane champion is the mod name now i can search it

[median ice]

What are these orange numbers?

Is it like a super crit or something?

[desert tree]

Yes, that come from your amulet

[median ice]

I had no idea something like that existed in the game, I just saw it on a stream. Thanks.

[shut walrus]

I have +6% endurance as a weaver's touch on this rogue idol. Can I get the same weaver's touch on a mage idol? It would help me out tons. Thanks

[slow eagle]

Look up the affix on LE tools

Or even like mage planner -> see if you can add it to a mage idol

[shut walrus]

what do i click on when i get to LE tools

[slow eagle]

It’s a website and is pinned in the class specific chats

Oh it’s also pinned in here

It’s your one stop shop for everything LE

[shut walrus]

im on the site

im wondering where it tells me about idols with weavers touch

[slow eagle]

Oh whoops

They should show up in the affixes section (items -> affixes I think)

Or if you go to the build planner and make a mage build, you can add idols to the build

And it won’t let you make an idol/gear you can’t get in game

Items -> item overview -> click the weaver affixes or enchanted idol affixes

[shut walrus]

thanks

it says i can get it.

[slow eagle]

Best of luck getting it in game

[shut walrus]

thanks for helping! 🙂

[hallow osprey]

I was working on a 2T7 Peak of the Mountain with Multishot Level and Multishot DMG per Arrow but then this 4LP dropped, is it better to just slam 1T7 + 3 good Tier 5 affixes on this instead? Tier7 damage per Arrow seemed really good.
Im somewhat new to endgame crafting so im not sure what to do with this, is more affixes just better?

[slow eagle]

If you want to be patient, you could wait for 2 T7s you really like

I’d advise against waiting for 3 or 4 T7s cause that can take forever

In general more affixes is better because it’s more stat, just make sure it’s useful stats

[hallow osprey]

Thats my issue, from what i read it seems really hard to also get useful affixes on the other slots when you go for double T7

[slow eagle]

It’s a helmet so you already have two prefixes (levels and dmg per arrow) so it’s hard to go wrong with like flat health and %increased health as T5 suffixes

Or whatever defense your missing

[hallow osprey]

So 2T7 and 2 useful T5s is a realistic thing?

The only 2T7 i ever had was for a 2LP so i didnt even try to get the others correct, i kind of considered getting the T5s correct aswell a pipedream.

You would basically need the T7s on the exalt to already be health etc. when it drops right?

[slow eagle]

You would need it to drop as 2 T7s, could also be a T7 and a T6, then just craft to get the two T5s

The nice thing with a 4lp is it’s just crafting rng now

Don’t need to get the craft done then slam correctly

But yeah 2T7s (that you want) is fairly realistic, might take some time tho

If your in merchants guild check the market

[hallow osprey]

Im a patient guy, if thats remotely realistic it sounds like a fun project. I think ill try it.

Thanks for the reply 👍

[slow eagle]

Make sure to be target farming helmets

[fallen parcel]

You want 2 t7 suffixes and one prefix and 1 open slot prefix for imprint its gonna make your life easier to get the 2 prefixes you want pretty much guaranteed.

[slow eagle]

Big true, look up a guide for how imprinting works

[rocky rapids]

to add on to this, 77 for a 2lp slam is definitely doable, 7755 with all 4 being your desired affixes (and add a good seal and base if you’re not going to slam it) is CONSIDERABLY harder

[slow eagle]

That was the load bearing patient

Also cause moving beyond that is like an order of magnitude harder

[bright ether]

what are some good ways to farm more runes of redemption?

[waxen laurel]

I was killing enemies and a message popped up "weaver has added affix to " something"

Whats that?

Just seen that my gloves are now purple(pretty sure they werent but i dunno) And says weavers will

[rocky rapids]

weavers will are a type of unique
as you kill enemies, it will consume weaver's will to either add a random affix to the item or increase the tiers of an existing affix
you can use runes of weaving to expedite this process

[waxen laurel]

Huh...neat... guess I just happened to get one. Unless it can just randomly appear on any unique at any point?

[slow eagle]

Only weaver uniques can get weaver’s will

[waxen laurel]

Ah I see. I just got lucky then..

[slow eagle]

Weaver uniques are def fun

Tho Etera help you if you need to use one for a build

Gamba gamba

[waxen laurel]

I got swaddling of the erased. Its a helpful boon for now

[slow eagle]

Yee

[bright ether]

if i set my loot filter to show all idols with minion affixes and a class requirement of primalist, will it hide weaver or generic idols that dont have a class requirement?

[faint cape]

If you are hiding everything that you aren't showing, yes. You may want to use a rule that hides off-class idols above that show rule instead of having the class check on itself.

[hasty basin]

About supporter pack, will there a sale off for them?

Or they will just sale invidual MtX item

[storm blaze]

They don't sell the individual items from supporter packs
They're exclusive to the supporter packs

[hasty basin]

Ah okay

Have supporter pack ever got discount?

[storm blaze]

I don't think so

[pearl raft]

can someone help me recommend a build for first time as i just bought last epoch last night

[storm blaze]

What kind of builds do you like to play?

[pearl raft]

im down to anything

is the sentinel leveling guide good?

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/paladin-leveling-guide#loot-filter-header

[storm blaze]

Yeah, it looks solid enough

[pearl raft]

but is there u can recommend?

[storm blaze]

I play weird things that I wouldn't recommend to anyone really, sorry

[pearl raft]

fair enough xd

[storm wren]

New travellers are quite rare here. Have you been played another loot-based ARPG before le?

You choose sentinel. Are you a melee fan?

[pearl raft]

it was path of exile bbut that was a year ago i think

[pearl raft]

yea but im down tto anything

[storm wren]

hah I played poe 1 year ago too, but that was first time I played that game

[pearl raft]

had blast playing it but due to the season keeps gettting delayed got bored and stopped playing it

[storm wren]

(I have left bunches of questions about poe/le here)

[storm wren]

Not a bad choice. Let's go! It's one of op mastery.

[pearl raft]

bet ill go with this then

thank you

[storm wren]

I never try paladin yet

Maybe. I'm busy at dealing poe 2 so maybe one day

[storm blaze]

Paladin is very strong

[storm wren]

sentinel's movement skill is a big block for enjoying the game when it's in campaign

[pearl raft]

is poe 2 good now?

was playing diablo 4 did not enjoyed it i buy this game instead xd

[storm wren]

if you enjoy trading + passionate at high difficulty on actions, poe 2 is your tea

[pearl raft]

i had a blast with poe

but i dont think ill be pplaying tthat game anymore it drains the shit out of me

i remember when i was playing it i never go to school for 1 week straight

T_T

[storm blaze]

Poe2 has some fun builds
But it's very unbalanced still and lacking in end game content
a lot of the weapons are still not in the game and we are missing classes too
A lot of the skills feel bad or useless compared to others

[storm wren]

well at least poe 2 let me play chaos dot as a caster smoothly because of that ascendency point, my life don't change when I have es xd

I have no idea which build can I have fun in poe yet

I'm proud of lich is the 1st ascendency with abyssal version. Although it mean nothing to actual experience, just some change on the art of ascendency panel

[pearl raft]

poe 1 was also good

just got bbored waiting for tthe new season

had like 900+ hours in 2 months playing it T_T

[storm blaze]

I just take a break before I reach that point

[pearl raft]

thats why i wont be playing that game anymore as it drain the shii out of me

[waxen laurel]

How can I find idols? It seems like I never see them drop or in a shop

[quiet terrace]

Easiest way would be tombs and cemeteries they always drop there. Also check your loot filter

You also have monolith rewards for idols

[waxen laurel]

Gotcha. Im in chapter 4 of campaign and have rarely seen any idol drops. Now I know where to look

[quiet terrace]

You will get some in campaign as well no worries.

[waxen laurel]

Appreciate the information.

Thank you

[crystal jackal]

is there any way to get bones other than just enter rifts? trying to buy a priomordial on low lvl and missing a lot of bones

[burnt crag]

rampant coast woven echo

[crystal jackal]

Is that a response to me? I’m low lvl. Still going through the campaign

[waxen laurel]

I feel that haha.

[fallen parcel]

There is trick you can do to get many rift beasts in chapter 7 campaign i believe where you go back and forth between areas cause the rifts are beside the teleports pretty much I think is the best way to farm evolution amulet if you dont mind the grind,dont remember the area though

[ionic void]

most of the primordial items are fairly high min level so double check that if you're not ino monos yet

[crystal jackal]

I don’t even know which one is act 7 😅
They all melt into each other

[fallen parcel]

Whenever you have to kill a big tree boss that is end of chapter 7 I think right before is the good area,you also fight Lagon i think in chapter 7

[crystal jackal]

isn't the big tree before Lagon?

[fallen parcel]

I don't remember all i know chapter 7 ends there

[slow eagle]

make sure to find the lil loot chest thing in the rifts for bonus parts

*the rifts you enter and its like a mini zone

other wise its just a grind till monos when you can spec on the weaver tree to grind it faster

oh wait right also look at what part drops based on what rift beast upgrade you give it

[sharp smelt]

During the campaign, some types of loot lizards drop piles of idols. IIRC the blue ones.

Another option is to choose idols as a rift beast reward.

[waxen laurel]

Yeah thats about the only way I see idols drop. I was hoping there would be another way I could do at my point in the game

[sharp smelt]

The lizards drop generic idols, the rift beast rewards can include class idols. You have a lot more control over your drops once you finish the campaign. And, obviously, make sure your loot filter isn't hiding idols from you.

[waxen laurel]

Im using whatever is default.

[slow eagle]

theres no filter by default

tho messing around with the loot filter maker/looking at a guide is a good thing to do

[sharp smelt]

Even just filtering out normal rarity items is a big quality of life win and takes maybe two minutes to set up

[waxen laurel]

Honestly I'm okay with all loot but being able to see only yellow and up would be a great boon. dunno if that would affect idols

[toxic echo]

rarity wouldnt effect idols

[sharp smelt]

As I recall, idols don't have rarity, so a rule that hides normal and magic items will do that and not affect idols. Always good to test the filter by dropping items you know should show or hide and see if it works as intended.

[waxen laurel]

Gotcha thanks ima look up how to do that. Cuz I hate picking up magic and normal rarity haha

[sharp smelt]

Open loot filters, make new loot filter, add rule, visibility: hide, add clause on rarity, select normal and magic

(a guide will show you where all those buttons are but you can probably wing it)

[waxen laurel]

Yeah I figured it out for that 🤣🤣

Kinda straight forward

[halcyon musk]

Can anyone tell me where the ALTAR OF THE WEAVER is in the current season? I played so many tombs but I never get the altar at the end. I skipped placing something in the very first one and after that I never got one again. is it just bad rng?

[faint cape]

Altars are always in cemeteries (the ones that you can see on your echo web), not tombs.
There's usually one that spawns within the first couple echoes you run in a fresh web, and then just rng

[halcyon musk]

Oh not the ones that randomly appear but the ones on the map. Thank you. Makes actually sense.

[viscid pine]

Hello random question does this item have only 1 Legendary potential ?

[slow eagle]

1 added affix = it had 1 lp before you legendary crafted it

[candid elm]

It currently only has 1x Legendary Affix, yes. The red line.

If you wanted to craft a similar item, you'd need a copy of the Primordial unique item with 1 Legendary Potential. And an Exalted Staff with a high tier % increased Elemental Damage Over Time, Tier 7 ideally well rolled, and 4x total affixes on the Exalted item. To combine them with the Eternity Cache at the end of Temporal Sanctum dungeon.

[viscid pine]

is it possible to put 2 similar affixes on an item that has a 2LP for example Increased Elemental Damage over time and x% Damage over time?

[slow eagle]

Yea

[candid elm]

Yes. But! When you run at least Tier 2 or higher Temporal Sanctum dungeon, you're given 1x affix that is guaranteed to transfer from the Exalted item. Any remaining LP chooses randomly from the remaining affixes on the Exalted item.

[slow eagle]

Even if the unique comes with say %increased elemental damage, you can slam that on

[candid elm]

So you can guarantee 1 of the 2. And as there's then 3 affixes remaining on the item, you have a 1 in 3 chance for it to randomly pick the second affix you wanted.

[slow eagle]

Just also as goat said, prepare for the gamba beyond 1lp items

[candid elm]

That can take multiple attempts until it randomly hits on what you want

[slow eagle]

Make sure to read the legendary item page in the in game, game guide too

[candid elm]

I personally make the 1 LP item. Then use that while working on trying to get a higher LP craft to work. It can be frustrating, so be prepared for the grind.

[viscid pine]

Ok this is getting out of hand and i dont wanna be a burden lets just take it few steps back .I need the Eternity Cache in order to make a Unique Item Legendrary And i need a same type purple item.So for example a unique 2 handed Staff and a purple 2 handed Staff . Do i get to pick which affix i want to transfer or its random?(I read the game guide and i cant say i really understand it)

[candid elm]

If you run at least the Tier 2 of Temple Sanctum dungeon, or higher, you're guaranteed 1x affix transfer

[viscid pine]

but the affix transfer is random ?

[slow eagle]

Beyond the first affix yes

[viscid pine]

Aaa makes sense now

[slow eagle]

You get to pick one (or let fate decide) when you stick them in the eternity cache

[candid elm]

You get to pick one with Tier 2+. If you have LP 2+, the remaining are randomly selected from the remaining affixes on the Exalted item

[slow eagle]

Buuttt, you don’t get to pick one in the easiest version of temporal sanctum

So if you haven’t run it, run it twice -> then slam

[viscid pine]

So basically running a temporal sanctum III should do it

[slow eagle]

Yea

[viscid pine]

Great!

[slow eagle]

Just don’t forget to use the eternity cache at the end of it

[candid elm]

You always only get 1x guaranteed transfer with Tier 2, 3, or 4.

Tier 1 is always completely random

And you don't get more guaranteed at higher Tiers

[slow eagle]

Tho I think that unique is too high of a level to slam in T1 anyways?

[viscid pine]

I ran it recently i think its level dependent i could be wrong though ...

[candid elm]

It's required item level 58. So yes

[viscid pine]

But now i think it all became clear thank you both #Keep_Grinding

[slow eagle]

[candid elm]

On a screen where you put in the dungeon key, when you mouse over the tiers , it will tell you what the maximum required item level unique that tier can craft.

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

That item is required 58, so T2 or higher will work

[candid elm]

Best of luck

[worthy plover]

Why am I being offered 162 corruption as like base 6, 12 from gaze of orobyss and 144 as bonus or something, and then I use a harbingers needle to now have 6 gaze of orobyss and I am being ovffered 168 total, 6 base, 110 bonus, and 52 from 6 gaze of orobyss. I am rather confused by these echo's now, I used to go far away from the centre to get higher, but now these bonus ones appear, although now when I go farther away the base often seems to be the same sigificantly farther away on most occassions, but not always. But now I am wondering, is this one going to consume my new 6 gaze of orobyss when previously it would have just gave me more bonus, and why is it offering me lower bonus than my highest timeline corruption? While doing harbingers it seemed to generally offer me what I expected, but this timeline is going to make me run it twice to get it to the corruption level of my other, because the harbingers needle I used, only added on like 6 actual total corruption, seems to have reduced the bonus amount instead, and was a complete waste, and didn't get me closer to not having to run orobyss twice, which was what I was trying to avoid by using it.

[ionic void]

it's because the bonus is based on the difference between your corruption in that timeline and yoru highest timelin

and if you generate more corruption from other sources the the bonus is decreased

cause the bonus is calculated after the additions

[worthy plover]

yeah I know that, but that is really shit

[ionic void]

yeah it's obnoxious. you end up having to do one more timeline reset than it feels like you should every ime

[worthy plover]

that is my point, that is dumb and annoying, I just wasted this thing and its still not even taking me to the right level of corruption, it is going to land 6 corruption below my highest completed timeline even after using the harbingers needle, they need to sort that out it is quite annoying. At least I am not imagining it, I was starting to question reality there

Thanks

[bright ether]

6 corruption makes virtually no difference anyway

[candid elm]

There is a catch up mechanic where if you have a higher Corruption timeline, when you're in a lower Corruption timeline you'll see a Bonus Corruption listed on the Shade. The amount of Corruption from Distance, Bonus, and Gaze will put you at about 95% of your highest Corruption Timeline.

In addition to that, 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.

[candid elm]

As far as the Gaze, up to 4 are used each Shade fight. Any remaining are still there after.

[candid elm]

If you don't like the about 95% catch up, let the devs know by posting in #feedback or #suggestions . The format is:

Title: title text
Feedback/Suggestion: text

[bright ether]

does item rarity scale linearly? e.g. 1000% item rarity gives 10x chance to get a unique or exalt affix compared to 100% rarity?

[faint cape]

No, it improves drops at a decreasing rate

[static light]

does unique drop rate blessing affect drops from uber? just realized i did 200 runs with gold blessing and idk if i fooked up or not

[storm blaze]

Doesn't affect boss drops I'm quite sure

[faint cape]

Can confirm, blessings do not affect boss-specific drops

[fallen parcel]

Ok realistically how i am supposed to play the game when this stuff changes every 10 seconds and go from good to okay to garbage ping

[bright ether]

why not just play offline

[pearl raft]

hello yall im kindda confused how do i get this item

do i usually find it on the shop or is there sometthing i can do?

[storm blaze]

Well you need to find one or buy one from another player
Could probably just find one with increased melee attack speed & dmg over time and then try to finish it by crafting it yourself

[pearl raft]

like trade?

what are the current currency in this game

[storm blaze]

Gold

You can get access to merchants guild in chapter 9

[pearl raft]

how do i know what chapter i am xd

[crystal jackal]

Playing time rot?

[storm blaze]

Well, you're in luck
you're in chapter 9 (you can click Esc and it shows)
If you go towards the Oasis there's npc that tells you about the item factions, circle of fortune & merchants guild

[pearl raft]

what?

sorry i have no idea what that is

[pearl raft]

gimme a minute ill check it out

aaaa what a coincidence LMAO

is merchants guild better to choose here?

[storm blaze]

I'm very much biased for Circle of Fortune
And honestly you might not be able to sell much anything at this point of the season because most of the players have stopped playing

[pearl raft]

oh fr?

am i too late playing the game?

[storm blaze]

Well it's a long season, sadly
Tbh the sword doesn't look too bad to make yourself

[crystal jackal]

What build are you playing that you need that particular weapon?

[pearl raft]

it says sentinel leveling guide

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/paladin-leveling-guide#what's-next?-header

tthis specifically

[pearl raft]

isee i might research for crafting guide i gues

the mechanics here is kindda similar to poe for crafting but im not yet familiar however

[storm blaze]

Crafting is very simple compared to poe

[pearl raft]

oh isee i might look for guides then

[pearl raft]

how long is thihs season right now btw?

[storm blaze]

Started at the end of October

[pearl raft]

how long does the season in LE usually?

cuz in POE its 3 months ish

[storm blaze]

Well they updated poe to be 4months

But it has varied a lot in LE
First one was 9months, then was... 4?
and now it's gonna last until end of March

[crystal jackal]

You don’t need a weapon with all that. That’s just the ”BiS” stats. But they’re not all equally valuable

Look for a 1 hander with as high damage over time as possible.
And then melee attack speed.

It’s only once you have both those at tier 5 that you should start looking for the other 2 stats.

[pearl raft]

what the hell for real?

did i do the right move by buying this game? XD

9 months for a season damn

LE creators sucks xd

[crystal jackal]

You’ll get your moneys worth. Regardless of season length

[pearl raft]

well im not bothered anyways

i also bought diablo 4 and did not had fun with it

so i wont bother with it xd

[pearl raft]

isee copy that

[crystal jackal]

The tooltip DPS is not to be trusted as an actual DPS meter. But usually it works to see if an item is a upgrade or not

There are some multipliers that don’t apply though

[pearl raft]

isee copy that also

im getting the hang of it

[toxic echo]

LE has had a weird dev schedule they hit like 4.5 months, then 9 months (poe2 release and engine upgrade) then 4 months, and now 7 months for s4(holidays and player feedback wanting ''bigger" seasons) in march. its all over the place. the devs know they need to smooth out the dev time of seasons, it just hasnt quite happened yet.

[worthy plover]

Yeah it sucks to lose 4 and just have them reduce the bonus to get the same amount basically. That is the part I found silliest. Basically not that it IS 95% as such, but that it is limited at it and that gaze are unintuitively inefficient and wasteful to farm to try and boost your corruption, until after you utilize catch-up mechanic, meaning it is probably better to just boost one timeline and only catchup the others.

But that wasn't why I logged into this social media today, I came here to ask why some of the exalted prophecies are silver and some are gold icons of the type of item. Do these have guaranteed sealed affixes or something? Or are we able to get experimental or champion/personal affixes on prophecy rewards? Just the silver icon versus the regular icon confuses me today. I see it on uniques as well does it just mean.

Also do these weapon types that only upgrade when you kill a harbinger only come from Nemesis specifically or can they drop in any other way? And do they have to be one of the actual 4 rewards then as I end up banishing most Nemesis as their rewards are not good so was curious where to focus farm those.

[pearl raft]

that kindda sucks hope they fixed it

[toxic echo]

the gold are specific bases like 'gloves' and the silver ones are generic like 'armour'.

where armour could be body armour, boots, gloves, helmet, etc

they only come from nemesis, or nemesis tower

[toxic echo]

they are aware of the issue and know its an issue, so, just up to their execution and getting their house dev pipelines in order

[worthy plover]

Ahhh ok I get you I did notice that once before but it had like an axe and said weapons not axes once and that confused me. Thank you Eagles, I think I was dreaming of things I wanted for that rather than, what was in the text! So Nemesis actually are important then I was starting to wonder about those guys they never give me anything I actually want and I still haven't found any legendaries that really work well with my build yet.

[toxic echo]

nemesis is a gambling mechanic at the end of the day. like most drop points, most wont actually be useful. but its one of the easier ways to get multi exalts and get LP on uniques that dropped at 0lp

[crystal jackal]

They clearly are not fast enough to do 3-4 month season.

But what bothers me more is that with this knowledge,
why they don’t do more numerical changes on skill with new leagues.
That bothers me more with s

There are so many weak skills that they could just crank up numerically but they hardly do any changes like that

[worthy plover]

Yeah my main issue with Nemesis is usually, looking at the tab without worrying about dying to a random mob while reading the tab! Good stuff though, I have a better idea what to do now thanks.

[toxic echo]

correct, but a good bit of this is trying to get their house in order. they are a new/young/inexperienced dev team. so it takes some time to get how things actually work in a deadline environment. and at least they acknowledge the issues.

i would push back on numerical changes...the patch notes are giant and they DO make big changes to tons of skills. like black hole basically got double damage in s3, and still doesnt get played.

[crystal jackal]

Playing in HC. And I only look at nemesis in nemesis tower.

[toxic echo]

yeah, thats a common complaint since it came out. lol. they added that red flash thing to at least let you know you are being damaged, as long as its not a 1 shot.

hopefully one day we get a legitimate pause in game...but thats a deep tech issue with their game online

[worthy plover]

HC must really work those glutes with all that clenching, I am not of the right temperment for HC I don't think, yet, but have to try offline next runthrough lol.

[crystal jackal]

The patch notes are long. But it’s a lot of fluff text.

The actual skills that get numerical changes and are not part of one of the reworks is quite low

[crystal jackal]

Or did you mean:
what’s the point of dining numerical changes, they did it to black hole and no one is playing it anyway.
?

[toxic echo]

the did it to black hole, and no one is playing it.

and tbf they did it to alot of skills

thats just the one i had off the top of my head

its just not 'meta' enough

bear kinda overshone most everything that patch

[crystal jackal]

There’s more aspects to skills than just damage. And the worse a skill feels to play the bigger numbers it has to produce in order for it to be played.

Then there’s the entire fact that you can’t farm by doing ”bossing” in LE. So a skill needs to feel good at all aspects or have ridiculous numbers.

But if that’s the mentality, what’s the point of ever doing any numerical changes?

[toxic echo]

yes...but you just said numerical changes need to happen more often. and now you want more than just numerical changes

just isnt enough time to rework every skill to be useful in a seasons time. and part of that is their internal pipelines and getting stuff done faster.

but they do touch a majority of skills every new season

[crystal jackal]

I don’t. I just want more numerical changes with each league.
I just was explaining why the numerical changes on black hole didn’t result in more ppl playing black hole.

[toxic echo]

feel like you are arguing with yourself here. you want more number changes and then give reasons why numbers changes arent enough

[crystal jackal]

Im not. I’m saying the black hole numerical change was way too small considering how clunky the skill is.
And just because they dropped the ball on that one, you shouldn’t use it as an argument against numerical changes

[clear swallow]

Is there a viable build for lightning meteor?

[desert tree]

I talked to someone who was doing 1k+ with it

[viscid pine]

Hello everyone! can anyone tell me how this guy managed to put 2 affixes in this item?

[sonic saddle]

That's only one affix? But also you can farm it to get a 2lp.

[storm blaze]

Yeah that's only 1 affix
the +4 level of judgement also comes with increased healing effectiveness

[lavish crane]

To put an affixe on a unique, you need to find it with 1 to 4 legendary potential, then you can sacrifice an exalted ~weapon~ item of the same type to put 1 to 4 of his affixes on the unique. To do it go to temporal sanctum dungeon.

[storm blaze]

not necessarily exalted weapon
can be exalted armor or relic, ring, amulet, shield

[slow eagle]

every +level to skill affix also comes with a second effect

[shut walrus]

im making a new character and im wondering if my imprinted items will carry over to that character.

will the woven tree be the same? Thanks

[bright ether]

no, but if they have access to the same stash, you will get the same number of weaver points and can allocate them again

[slow eagle]

*same stash assuming it’s the same game mode

And not character found

[rocky rapids]

ik they’re against having weaver tree “loadouts” and i get why but it would be real nice to have a “default” that could be applied when creating new characters

i pretty much always use the same tree, it’s kinda annoying to have to either import into LEtools/screenshot/try and remember every node i took and then redo the same tree for every alt

[pearl raft]

hello yall i just finished campain when do i start doing tthis build https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/judgement-paladin-guide

[candid elm]

Whenever you feel like swapping into it. That guide is written for a level 70+ character, but it doesn't require any specific items to function. So you can start playing it earlier, you just won't have level 20 skills or the +skill points from items the guide is using. You can also just continue to use the Paladin Leveling guide a bit longer if you wanted to switch a bit later https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/paladin-leveling-guide, it's also using Judgement.

[pearl raft]

isee thank you

[shut walrus]

what kind of builds are good for having increased stun chance

[bright ether]

is that a thing you even go for? i dont think you can stun uber aberroth can you

[faint cape]

Uber can be stunned (aside from the few guaranteed stuns), but not by typical builds. Generally super OP builds like bear EQ or stuff that gets a lot of stun chance for some reason like flame whip.

[faint cape]

Oh yeah, to answer this, flame whip or DOT forge strike. Whips just get a lot from scaling other stuff, forge strike you scale with actual stun chance gear.

[bright ether]

so can you perma stun uber aberroth

[faint cape]

Yeah

[desert tree]

🐦‍⬛ 🐦‍⬛ 🐦‍⬛

I get very consistant stun on Uber with crows

[bright ether]

it says it grants max stability if i have never completed the timeline before and it is not empowered. but im not getting max stability on a new character when i use it on a normal timeline that i have not completed before? is it because my other characters have already completed it?

[desert tree]

Yes because alts get access to all timelines completed by previous characters

[crystal jackal]

The leveling guide is basically this build but before you have access to everything

[waxen laurel]

I got several items that have a level and then a rank. Whats the rank mean?

[cunning canyon]

The rank you need to have in a specific Faction, like Circle of Fortune or Merchant Guild.

[waxen laurel]

Or lord... im big dum dum.

😂😂

[cunning canyon]

we have all been there 🙂

[candid elm]

If this is a second character, Alt, in the same game mode / shared stash, you can join an item faction in the first town in Chapter 1 - Keeper's Camp. If you didn't already join an item faction on your Alt. The purple symbol is for Circle of Fortune.

[waxen laurel]

Yeah I did all that. My dum dum brain couldnt think that "hey maybe its the factions"

Lol

[candid elm]

Ok then as soon as you reach Level 12 you can use that item. Your characters in the same game mode / shared stash will share the item faction progression if you join the same one again.

[waxen laurel]

Gotcha

Thank you

[worthy plover]

can you buy harbingers eyes off other players if you are in merchant faction online?

[faint cape]

No, only equippable stuff

[bright ether]

you cant trade rift beast parts for ancient bones right?

[bright ether]

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/npc/TimeBeastChampion why does the rift beast here have no drops listed? they can obviously drop stuff

[crystal jackal]

Aren’t the drops dependent on how you evolve the beast?

[crystal jackal]

Was looking yesterday and didn’t find. No expert though

[bright ether]

it drops primordial uniques as well

@fringe birch sorry for the ping, but why are rift beasts on tunklab not listed as dropping the primordial uniques?

[faint cape]

Those have their drop rates listed on each specific unique (I don't remember which site(s) have that though)

[storm wren]

People think costumes in Le are cartoony because they're not as complex as those?

[native sail]

I think they're cartoony because they are impractical and look like plastic. Has nothing to do with "not enough fine detail" and everything to do with "the art style does not work for the tone"

[storm blaze]

Yeah
They just look plastic

[hot carbon]

Team Fortress 2 looks less cartoony than some of LE because of something we call ✨ grounded art style ✨

A lot of the costumes in LE aren’t strictly held within the art style of the previous work. A lot of it, at least to me, looks out of place compared to other things, which makes it look cheap

Even in something like Team Fortress 2, a game defined by its exuberant cartoonish art style, a lot of it doesn’t actually break out of the art style because the style was built on nonsense, on purpose, which makes everything feel like it fits, despite the fact that it’s a low-poly low-res source game

(To some extent, I can’t defend the banana hat)

[storm wren]

oh I guess they just prefer to adjust the reflectivity a bit more so everything looks shiny

[native sail]

It's... a lot more than that

[storm wren]

Hard to understand what "plastic" mean here

[terse galleon]

im just seeing this recent "thread"

as others stated - this is about coherency, and coherency comes with process of guidelines

There's a good reason well defined and memorable artsyles catch on - they operate within design guides for shapes, textures, styles and inspirations

With Diablo its a very strong thing since the art directors set some very welll defined ground rules for materials, colors, textures, shapes and general styles for each of the themes presented in the game

This isn't just for character armor. This is for everything. Its for UI, fonts, icons, descriptions, locations, ambiance

This in my humble opinion is still the great divider between something like Last Epoch and games like D4 and PoE2

[hot carbon]

yeah i totally get that, i think i’d agree tbh

now that you’ve said all that, it’s so obvious how different the levels of coherence in art are

[terse galleon]

Im a huge game art nerd, and collect artwork, books, sketches and everything relating to how these are concieved, sketched and go through the process of idea - sketches - proof of design - concept - full

and you can really read how their thought process works with approaching design

[storm wren]

Base on this understanding, are you mean their mtx don't match with environments/UI/icons so much, they looks coming from the other world?

[terse galleon]

In terms of design language, LE ... isn't afraid to show its indie roots

I think some visual parts of it are in complete disarray

From icons, to UI, to armor and character art, to fonts

Its sort of all over the place

[hot carbon]

last epoch is unprofessional at heart

[storm wren]

...

🤔 .

[terse galleon]

I can give specific examples of what i mean, but i think that people who are into art can see it for themselves

[storm wren]

I want to say your eyes are amazing...

[terse galleon]

I can guarantee you my eyes are completely ordinary lol

[hot carbon]

le also has very poor visual clarity

[terse galleon]

oh yeah, that's another can of worms

[hot carbon]

the game practically gets off on throwing as much shit at you as possible

[native sail]

Purple on purple on purple on black on purple on black raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh

[hot carbon]

i’m red colorblind btw

this is just muted blue on black for me

[terse galleon]

There's a lot more purple in this bad boy, just wait for the Orobyss dlc

[hot carbon]

wanna guess what blue looks similar to when desaturated?

black

[native sail]

Marketing this shit as a DLC and the primary components of it are finishing the campaign that was supposed to be finished nearly 3 years ago 😭 😭 😭

[storm wren]

oh everything is black. Just different black. That's terrible

[hot carbon]

remember when escape from tarkov’s 1.0 was released as 1.0 because they finished the campaign

[terse galleon]

our 2020 game came out in 2023, we're numb to this

[hot carbon]

remember how last epoch still hasn’t finished the campaign

and is in like 1.3

like tarkov’s 1.0 release was Not Good (mostly from a bug perspective) but at least you could beat the game

i remember crashing out at le 1.0 release over the fact that campaign won’t come with it lol

[native sail]

Deadass been having more fun playing D3 on my Switch than I have any of LE's seasons, I don't understand how they fumbled to this degree

[terse galleon]

D3 has all these things i mentioned lol

It has been obsessively crafted and polished around audiovisual QoLs

[hot carbon]

mfer lays in my bed all day playing d3 ong

[native sail]

Someone has to prove to the Switch nerds that Tempest Rush is not the coolest or best Monk build, and it's gonna be me

[terse galleon]

Next year you will be able to do the same with D4 when it arrives to the SW2

[hot carbon]

oh embeds don’t work here either

[hot carbon]

this implies being able to afford a switch 2

[native sail]

SW2 is like $500, I ain't got that

[terse galleon]

since i have no experience playing D3 console - which one is?

But it has to stay with the greatest class of all time, the Monk

I would assume Inna pet

[native sail]

Technically speaking? Legacy of Dreams Wave of Light. But that's because LoD is busted. If we ignore LoD then Inna crushes all the other options on Monk with ease.

[terse galleon]

I find Inna a good lazy build yeah

WoL LoD with pet spawns has one stupid pet quirk, where you have to stop casting it to reset its spawn location

[native sail]

It's peak. Water Inna makes my Switch run at like 10FPS, love it. Earth is the most consistent for GR150 though

[terse galleon]

oh yeah, that thing is a tamagochi

i often reminded how they had to transition from a 32bit to a 64bit client just to solve integer numbers limiting levels and damage in this game

That patch also added better antialiasing, and some better lighting

I think D3 is aging decently gracefully, considering some low poly assets

This is where design language (callback) holds it

The UI looks pretty great and holds up on a 4K display too. They did a great job with the art

Which some of it is from 2007~, crazy

[native sail]

Do not remind me that it's old, I do not wish to remember when I bought it

[terse galleon]

2007 is just one of its previous revolutions before pullling the plug and replugging it again in 2008, before doing it again in 2010

But much of the art was reused

[native sail]

I still lived in my hometown when I first played D3.... I haven't even been in that state outside of driving in nearly 10 years

[terse galleon]

I vividly remember the launch night at the mall. Hundreds of Diablo fans in that night in May of 2012. some cosplays even

we were standing outside the videogame store waiting for the clock to run out, not knowing that what awaits us is 2 days of utter connection errors

[hot carbon]

SoonTM

[worthy plover]

Is there some way to raise experimental affixes or seal them? Does the machine in the Rune Prison ever put exalted experimental affixes on? I know you can use a rune to try and swap one onto it, but are there any devices that let us seal affixes we can't raise other than the primordial one for tier 7 affixes as I already use a primordial item that is important to my build now. But throwing tier 1 or 2 experimental affixes on good items sort of isn't great when it takes a whole prefix. I am guessing any exalted item can drop with anything sealed that drops on it is the rule though? Sealing other prefix instead to fit two on works I guess but I'd rather seal the one I can't actually raise.

Crafting is quite frustrating at times with how many tools we have now, and the randomness of FP sometimes just bricking it almost instantly even if it does work. It doesn't annoy me just because crafting is RNG, as much as it gives me a headache trying to work out how to efficiently set up loot filters to look for items to craft without completely ignoring things like glyphs of envy which could be really useful, if you can stand the headache of the inventory management or wasting time looking at drops anyway which is what I feel I am trying to avoid doing by using loot filters in the first place.

Also someone was saying the other day that 50fp items are common, I am still yet to see one but am trying to gear before pushing too much more corruption, and I am still wearing what I would consider to be really poor gear that does the job, but isn't by any means, what I actually want to be using. If this is the case, at what sort of corruption level do 50fp items start dropping consistently?

[icy drift]

The only way to get an exalted experimental affix is to use a havoc.

There's no threshold where items suddenly start dropping with 50+ fp consistently. The higher you go the better the average items affix tiers and for will be

1000 corruption is usually a solid place to be at. A lot of the corruption scaling gets quite slow after that

[worthy plover]

After typing that I looked in my backpack again and I have one 53fp item that appears to be my first. Only seen 48 before that and usually 34-43 is the average ones I get. It seems to be the most recent thing I looted as well so the universe answered too. Thank you though, Cyborgwars, I love your name.

Do you know if the Defiled Fortress Void Nemesis is better than the Conquered Tower full of Nemesis for the actual Nemesis weapon drops? And if I get a prophecy for weapons that requires me to kill a Nemesis for the prophecy objective, does that have a higher chance or even any chance at all of dropping Nemesis weapons if the prophecy is for the weapon type of Nemesis weapon you want?

[icy drift]

All nemesis are the same

Pretty sure at least

[worthy plover]

Can enchanted affix on idols go over tier 4 or does it always break off and create another new affix?

[fallen parcel]

Its random very hard to get a t7 affix its like weaver will items

[lavish crane]

Up to 7 but it is random

[waxen laurel]

Is there a way to reset a monolith? I was doing one and died. (Apparently I shouldnt just go for it as soon as.possible 😅😅)

Campaign is done so I just planned on doing monoliths on newer characters.

[burnt crag]

if you die in an echo you can try it again, but you lose the reward and chance for additional content in it is lowered

[manic abyss]

do 'Legacy' charaters get to play with the current seasonal content, but just not on the seasonal server? Or are they stuck in a previous patch or something

[burnt crag]

no all content available

[waxen laurel]

Gotcha. Sad but appreciated. Running an necromancer and ended up dying haha

[candid elm]

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

If you don't enjoy starting over with new characters each Season, then Legacy is definitely an option.

[fiery cliff]

so no new season till next year?

[candid elm]

Yes #news message

Season 4, Shattered Omens, when it arrives on March 26th, 2026.

[fiery cliff]

oof thats such a long wait lol

[candid elm]

That's a bit longer than I think most of us were expecting. I was thinking like Dec/Jan before

[fiery cliff]

does that mean season 3 was extended?

[crimson oxide]

y'all think they'll do a mid-season event like Legion Uprising or w/e it was called in season 1?

[toxic echo]

one of the devs has been in here asking directly for event suggestions. so i think its a high possibility

if you have some events in mind, put em in #suggestions

tho that event specifically was not well recieved, they didnt seem against doing something different as a mid season change of pace

[fringe birch]

beast drops are not using the normal loot table rules so they are not shown atm.
I'll add beast drop chances sooner or later (before the next patch).

[candid elm]

It's still going on now

[tender rapids]

do anyone know if my friend from brasil can gift me supporter pack via steam to me?

im from europe

[storm blaze]

maybe he can, maybe he can't

But don't think this is the place to ask

[deft cedar]

Is Cosmic Warpath cosmetic bugged?

[worthy plover]

can slotting an item into a Nemesis and empowering it every time until you get it back, give more than 1 LP back?

[toxic echo]

yes

each attempt can give up to +3

[crystal jackal]

Yes. You get can get 1Lp on first empower and then 2 on second.
Same odds as getting LP from drop though I think

[worthy plover]

Just wondering, I think I put something in it once and it also gave it legendary affixes is that right? Or is it more likely to give LP if the LP leve is low on the item in general? I am using it for the primordial legends entwined ring specifically which seems to have ok chance at LP2 this way I think. I even think I reused one I wiped on the woven turtles back this way. But am worried I might "brick" it with a random affix too lol

[candid elm]

Yes, Nemesis could add a random Legendary affix or add Legendary Potential. But there's not much else you can do with regular unique items, so you might as well try it.

[deft cedar]

my cosmetics keep randomly unequpping

[worthy plover]

Are there any settings for turning your own spell effects down or making them more translucent at all?

[candid elm]

Check out this temporary fix pinned in the general channel #💬┃general message. The devs are aware of the issue and should be fixing it at some point in the future. Probably with the next Season updates

[worthy plover]

slaying majasa in the woven echo and her death scene where the lights come up and create the icon in the air, sent the fans on my PC into hyperdrive really randomly, quite extreme death sequence lol

[deft cedar]

Thanks

[manic abyss]

Is there a way to move online legacy characters to offline? game just runs so much better offline and i have so many characters i want to play from s1 that are already leveled

[candid elm]

There isn't currently an option for that, unfortunately.

[manic abyss]

can you even play Merchant Guild offline? Ive never played it online before so i dont know what it does even other than trading with players

[slow eagle]

dont think so

it doesnt really work when you can't trade with other players

[candid elm]

If you can select it, there's no benefit for MG offline. Play CoF.

[storm wren]

Which game I played the most in different months xd
Of course, I play Poe 2 too

RIP Wolcen

[hardy forum]

Hey all! I'm looking to craft a 2T7 vilatria helmet which is 3 prefixes. I have a 2T7 to imprint and also a 2T7 T6 to imprint as well. Which one should I imprint? It feels like the 2T7 T6 will just make crafting harder.

These are the helms I can use to imprint

[graceful cliff]

Although I have been preferring a different base I would say the one with the open prefix will be much better.

It’s a little lower on FP but should be much easier to craft on especially for reforged.

[crystal jackal]

soul furnaces are still bugged.
guess I need to go do another timeline in order to unlock empowered....

[faint cape]

Technically, you can still complete the quest echo. It's just a massive pain to do. Worse for some builds than others.

[shut walrus]

if I imprint a lp3 traitor's tongue with 1 dex and 1 int will it still be random roll for all the affixes when the imprints drop?

[faint cape]

It will still be random, but more likely to have the same rolls

[storm wren]

https://80.lv/articles/unity-reportedly-rolls-out-annual-fee-for-enterprise-customers-starting-at-usd250k

Wait...Is it real?

New unity drama in 2025?

[shut walrus]

can i imprint the same item twice? like one in caches and one in maps

[burnt crag]

yes you can

[subtle grail]

If you read game developer subreddits and forums about this, nobody is mad about having to pay Unity 1% of their "Made With Unity" gross revenue for the previous year. It's 1%, it's nothing.

Keep in mind that Unity is not a profitable company. They operate at a loss.

[solar bear]

Happy new year everybody cheers 🍻 to a great year

[bright ether]

why does the portrait look different from the actual character model

infact, i dont think the gender is even the same

[storm wren]

Run out of money

🤔 key proof of why le keep the roots of indie game too

[pearl raft]

just finished campaign do ijust play monolith of fate from now on?

[desert tree]

Yes

[bright ether]

is it just me or does "herald of the scurry" cause void squirrels from the shrine to not expire via time

[pearl raft]

how do u get this +2 judgement

[bright ether]

i remember last season, everyone was saying that higher LP imprints would have better odds of dropping an item with that LP. was that changed?

[bright ether]

what do you mean? its just an affix

[pearl raft]

oh i can just craft it?

i gues i havent unlocked it yet then

[bright ether]

oh, you need the shards for it

[pearl raft]

is it a rng drop?

[bright ether]

almost everything is rng, so yes

your best bet is to look for items with the judgement affix and shatter them to get the shards

[pearl raft]

isee got it i just have to play the game then

[storm blaze]

It's rng drop and you can also shatter items with +levels to judgement to maybe get the shard

[pearl raft]

ohhh yea

thanks for telling me this

i havent thought of it

is it worth it to complete the bonus stability?

[gritty glacier]

Definately not if you are leveling, just push to empowered monos and get blessings.

[hardy wadi]

wtf is scalebane on the puncture skill??

[faint cape]

Still the same, higher LP and higher number of legendary affixes both grant higher average LP on the imprint drops.

[crystal jackal]

create a filter option to show you any items with that affix, and then shatter them

if you have many rune of removal, use them instead.
if you remove a e.g. tier 4 +judgement affix from an item, you get 4 shards.
so rune of removal is always better if you have enough of them

does this mean 6% chance in non empowered and 48% chance in 300 corruption?
does it scale linearly?

[faint cape]

Not exactly. TunkLab lets you simulate the scaling for most drops:
https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/timeline/ending_the_storm

(Down in the boss fight & loot section, or on Lagon's bestiary page)

[fallen parcel]

If i am not mistaken higher lp for imprints makes the unique to roll an extra time to get whatever you imprinted so a 3lp I think rolls two times a 4 lp rolls 3 times sort of like how uniques reroll lp when they drop

At the end of the day no matter how many rerolls if the drop doesnt pass them it stays at what it was dropped

Having better rolls in affix is better though most of time for imprint uniques

[hallow osprey]

Which one would yall slam into a 4LP Peak of the Mountain for Multishot?
I have a really tough time deciding, especially since the crit avoidance feels wasted since i cant cap neatly

[fallen parcel]

Just slam the health double one god knows marksman needs all the hp it can get🤣

[hallow osprey]

Sounds sensible... but the damage rolls make me saaad :c

[crystal jackal]

are you dying a lot?

how many arrows are you fireing?

[hallow osprey]

17, and i guess i die a lot but mostly from intended oneshots due to skill issue

[hallow osprey]

Also an unrelated question, does anyone know what Marksman skill/passive gives crit chance that doesnt show up in the stats menu?

Im critting every hit at 66% crit chance but im not sure where that "invisible" crit chance is coming from.

[faint cape]

Anything specific to a particular skill (like in its skill tree) and debuffs on enemies (like crit vuln, which you can get from MM passive) do not show up in the char sheet

[crystal jackal]

is the extra health going to save you from the 1-shots?

[crystal jackal]

post your planner?

[hallow osprey]

I assume its just critical vulnerability

Im not sure how that math works out even with critical vulnerability tho 66+20 is still not 100. So i assume im missing something

[rocky rapids]

barrage of pain passive?

oh and shadow hunter node (smoke bomb tree)

i would assume those 2 maybe get you to 80% and then crit vuln does the rest?

[hallow osprey]

The crit chance from barrage stacks does show up in the live stats and its only around 2%

Smoke Bomb would make a lot of sense since its base crit and its on a skill, but i wasnt inside it when testing

[long nest]

Hi guys, i am lvl 98 and followd a maxroll guide for erasing strike , my build seems pretty good with thze stats for me, i can do 800+c, i dont know what to do better becourse im playing since 10days i would like to kill uber aberroth but i dont know what i can better becourse anyone alse is doing 1000+c and i dont know what i do wrong, can someone pls help, i would appreciate it😅

[crystal jackal]

Assasin's quiver, +2%
are you sure it's not that which is visible?

[crystal jackal]

do you have a planner?

[hallow osprey]

I tested quiver, the stats change when re-speccing so thats not it

[long nest]

yes i have a planner

[hallow osprey]

But i think i solved it: Multishot arrows combine their damage number into one. And as long as ONE of the arrows that hit is a crit, the overall number is also shown as a crit.

So in meele even with 40% crit chance it always looks like a crit, but when you angle it so only one hits it makes sense

[crystal jackal]

in smoke bomb you have 87,9% crit

[crystal jackal]

link it?

is barrage of pain base crit or inc crit?

[long nest]

ahh you mean i have my build on a website, i can do it real quick

[crystal jackal]

must beinc

[crystal jackal]

yes, so we can see what you've done so far

you have 573% inc bow dmg.
30% per arrow on chest that is 17*30=510%

573+510+8*17 = 1219%

cba looking for all incs that are not included in planner

that's 12,55% more dmg if you slam the 17% per arrow on helm

[hallow osprey]

hmm

[crystal jackal]

your build looks pretty good.
is there a big dmg difference between you and what you see in the video on the maxroll guide?

don't know how well lastepochtools and maxroll parse all the stats

but you're 76 vs79% attack speed

24% vs 26% crit
314% vs 312% multi

[long nest]

yeah they kill shade of orobyss like in 5-6 hits and that on 1000c and aberroth easy, where i do like half of it

[crystal jackal]

309 vs 311 base void

1042% vs 792% void inc

975 vs 1260 mana

that's like 30 multi

you should not be doing half dmg

unless there's some line of text somewhere that's not being parsed

but you have same skill lvls

[long nest]

its more like i do 80% of the dmg

[crystal jackal]

isn't hat ornate idol of your's bad?

[long nest]

maybe im just bad😅 and need to play better against bosses, against uber aberroth i have like 0 chance

[crystal jackal]

crit chance per mana cost on weapon

but maybe that spell mana efficiancy doesn't affect void

erasion strike*

try it ingame

also, what's the cost of your erasing strike?

[long nest]

30mana cost but i spawn a echo who also make the skill and i loss mane for it

[crystal jackal]

that's 3% abse crit you're losing there

0,2x30 vs 0,3x30

[long nest]

do you think that this can be a reason i lose a lot of dmg?

[crystal jackal]

I haven't make a dps clac for void cleave, so haven't gone through all the spell bonuses

but it could be a bit at least

played time rot and shield throw this season

[long nest]

is it better?

[crystal jackal]

depends on what you mean with better

[long nest]

better for endgame stuff like uber aberroth?

[crystal jackal]

time rot is a DoT and has leech, so it's more forgiving vs dot dmg in the game

[long nest]

is he realy so hart that some people that play the game long dont kill him?

[crystal jackal]

uber abby?

[long nest]

yes

[crystal jackal]

yeah, he's a "farm" check

i haven't killed him, cba farming that much gear.
the game bocomes a degenreate gambling machine once you start farming 2LP+ t7 t7 gear

and Im on HC

[long nest]

so the most people ignore him?

and do other stuff in the game?

[crystal jackal]

didnt EHG say that 95% of people dont even get to empowered monos?

or are you comparing with other powergamers?

[long nest]

no but i see that on the leaderboard some people do also 1000+ waves my record was with a friend 240

maybe now we can do a little higher but how can they get so high

[crystal jackal]

you mean arena?

[long nest]

yeah

[crystal jackal]

very few people do arena. it's super duper annoying

there are bugs that can kill you...and if you die to have to start from 50% I think agian

[long nest]

yes

[crystal jackal]

so if you die at 800 you need to start at 400

I'd rather go push in D3 than do that

[long nest]

yes but how can they go so high

they insta kill me

or are they capt at a wave form the stats?

[crystal jackal]

builds specifically designed for arena

the guy that has done 1700 on void knight has much better gear than you

[long nest]

how can it be so much better?
