[somber cave]

if I have those teleport nodes that cast elemental nova

is that my elemental nova that I have invested in or just a generic, uninvested one

[stone granite]

fairly certain it's your specced one

[static glacier]

There are gloves now that convert crit multi in poison and bleed effect

[misty sonnet]

acutally, it doesn't trigger any effects and doesn't end on it's own :/

[somber cave]

interesting

[stone granite]

I just activated rebuke while warpathing and it worked so I dunno man

but it could be a monster interrupting the cast

[raw coyote]

what are some of the gear slots that have slot-specific affixes (not implicits)? ie boots are the only slot that can have affix movement speed...

[misty sonnet]

maybe a short video helps, as you can see there are no monster to interrupt or something

I had to manually release the key for the ability for it to 'explode'

I think it's completely bugged out now, can't seem to use the ability at all lol

[knotty hinge]

All +skill affixes. Either on chest, relic, or head.

[stone granite]

working for me

[tiny jungle]

is there any reason why GPU temp spikes really hard in end of time whenever the background is in the image? I go from usual 50C to about 90 in just a minute. Only happens there

[stone granite]

Other people are reporting problem with rebuke too

don't know why it only affects some people

[lament nest]

I have the same problem, I've been reading the bug forums, looks like Rebuke is not working when you have extra cast speed

[crystal niche]

Anyone play around with forge strike recently? the suicide explosion on my summoned swords from Sharpnel seems to be doing close to no damage

[stone granite]

That explains why it doesn't affect me then.

[stiff stone]

Are timeline unlocks shared between characters?

[knotty hinge]

no

[analog stump]

how to get orian's amulet now that there's no gambling? just play and hope it eventually drops? 😭

[knotty hinge]

You can try farming Reign of Winter as it offers unique amulet nodes.

[crystal niche]

does ignite damage apply to ignites caused by minions?

[stone granite]

Only mods that specifically state minion

All other mods only affect you

[crystal niche]

dang, I can't seem to find any ways to scale the bleed/ignite from Smelter's Might on my forge strike animated weapons

[raw coyote]

How do I get to the ruined coast?

[stone granite]

Via boat?

[raw coyote]

what boat?

I think it's one of those time rifts

[raw fern]

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/zone/imperial_the_shining_cove

It's time rift in this zone

[raw coyote]

thanks

[analog stump]

uhhhh

[raw coyote]

Is there any icon or anything that shows the DCQ buff while in reaper form? also, does ti persist outside of reaper form?

Should I ever take the gold drop inc from conquering a timeline?

[stone granite]

Entirely up to you. I did. I'm starving for gold constantly.

[raw coyote]

ok

What does 'discover remaining branches' mean?

[stone granite]

There are numerous monoliths

once you completed the quests you move on to the next one

press M for your map

[thin canopy]

starving for gold . since the last patch ?? where yer spending it on ??

as gambling doesnt drop uniques anymore .. unless the hotfix returned that

[stone granite]

Spending it on gambling, which I never used for uniques/sets

Also have about a dozen more stash tabs to buy

[thin canopy]

ah ofc .. stash tabs true a big gold sink ..

[stone granite]

7 categories filled with tabs, yep it's expensive

[thin canopy]

my last buy was a 100 k . still need more

[stone granite]

I'm going to add an 8th category when I can

[acoustic thicket]

I have got a question. I purchased Last Epoch via Steam, after launching the game it required me to create an Account, which wasn't possible ingame. So I did it on the Website, so far , so good. Now I launched the game again (acc is verified). Tried to login via the Games Login Screen, and get a "Failed to Link Account" error message. After retrying, I now am stuck in a "Entering Eterra" loop... Anyone that can help regarding that matter? -Edit: Worked after a Game Restart. Apologies and thanks regardless.

[static glacier]

450k next stash tab

The gold blessing is by far the best of timeline 1

[glacial bison]

hi, for the fractured crown gambling, do i need to have high lvl mage to spawn the gilded crown in the gambler? or i can just use another class to gamble for the gilded crown

[smoky glade]

as of 0.8.3 uniques cannot be gambled

[glacial bison]

i know but the fractured crown is destructive fracture to get it right?

im asking about the gilded crown base

[smoky glade]

im pretty sure if u want a specific base u need to be the required level and class to gamble it

[glacial bison]

ah i see so i need to lvl up a mage to get the gilded

tyty

[smoky glade]

im 99% sure

it wouldn't make sense if u could gamble it when you are lower than required lvl

maybe u can a few lvls under im not sure

[glacial bison]

im pretty sure you can't as well but the class

because im playing primalist and my gambler gave me mage armour

[static glacier]

You can gamble off class

[smoky glade]

yeah the class doesnt matter

my bad

[static glacier]

But it is damn rare to get offered

[snow spruce]

They removed gambling for uniques in this patch

[static glacier]

He needs the base

Fractured never could be directly gambeled

But in the time it takes to gamble like 20+ offclass spefic base type leveling a mage to 70 is maybe faster

And for sure cheaper and more fun

But dont overlevel it 👀

[bleak terrace]

for Exalted items, can it drop with 2+ T6+ stats or is it only 1 mod that can roll T6?

[glacial bison]

well it's the highest base item on the mage i think it's fine to overlevel(?)

[static glacier]

You can drop 4 exa in theory

You need to be a mage to wear fractured btw

[glacial bison]

yea ik

im just collecting stuff

[static glacier]

If seen 2×t6 many times and 1t7 1t6 i guess 3 times

[bleak terrace]

ait

[static glacier]

Mike said you could find a t28... but most likley not in the lifespawn of this universe 😄

[raw coyote]

@stone granite this is a branch ?

or are branches w/in the specific section (fall of the outcasts)?

[analog stump]

i got a 3xt6

[stone granite]

Yeah

[stone granite]

#👑┃item-showcase

[raw coyote]

how come the quest explicitly says 'fall of the outcasts' ?

[stone granite]

That specific monolith has 2 branches

You have to run it twice to complete it

You'll see on your map it goes 2 paths

[raw coyote]

oh ok, so it happenes inside that area

[stone granite]

It's not required to go both paths in order to get to empowered monoliths though

a lot of people just go the right path

[raw coyote]

so how do i 'discorver the remaining branches; ?

[stone granite]

You run the first monolith a second time. The last quest ends with you choosing a branch

[raw coyote]

I jsut cap out stability in that area again?

by doing the nodes?

[stone granite]

yes

[raw coyote]

ah ok

that's the part i wasn't getting

do I have to redo the quests?

if i've already done them the 1st time?

[bleak terrace]

for lootfilter, is it possible to hide low rolls within 1 tier?

[raw coyote]

describe what you're trying to do?

[stone granite]

no frolk

[bleak terrace]

damn

[stone granite]

you can tell it minimum tiers, but not minimum rolls within a tier

[bleak terrace]

trying to make filter for idols, to r emove the shit ones :<

[raw coyote]

you can filter by Tier of affix

[stone granite]

yeah idols don't really use the tier system I'm afraid

[raw coyote]

which would be 'shit rolls'

[bleak terrace]

but its just 1 tier on idols right?

[stone granite]

it's a tier for game code purposes but not really

[raw coyote]

idols don't have tiers of affixes, and no, you can't filter by values of affixes (only by tiers)

[minor path]

someone have a good loot filter ?

[raw coyote]

i mean, it takes like 6 rules to make a "good one" for any given spec

[bleak terrace]

1 filter rule per type of idol, this gon take a while

[minor path]

ok so it's a little complex for a beginner?

[raw coyote]

so, do you know what affixes you want for your build?

[stone granite]

not really

[bleak terrace]

for beginners, yes, i started out just downloading premade ones from filter

then tinker bit by bit

[raw coyote]

don't even bother w/ premade

this way you understand how they work and can build your own

I litearlly learned how to build them in about 30 minutes yesterday

@minor path figure out the affix pool you want for your build

[minor path]

ok

but actually i'm level 24

[raw coyote]

I start with recoloring any that have 3+ affixes that I want

[minor path]

and i don't know good build

ok

[raw coyote]

oh, well that is something you'll have to determine before you make a loot filter

[minor path]

yes i know

[stone granite]

Yeah loot filter is only useful if you know what you want to filter for

[minor path]

i'm just grinding my level then i will see good builds i think

[stone granite]

just look at your mastery and skills and decide what looks fun

[static glacier]

Dont do common mistakes like hide all blues

[raw coyote]

@minor path just a reminder, once you pick a master for that character, you will not be able to change it

[bleak terrace]

hide all but double T7 items

[static glacier]

A t8-10 blue with 2 stats you want is a perfect drop more or less

[minor path]

? i don't understand? i can create a new character? or switch my specification on the character

[raw coyote]

he doesn;t even know what he's playing

[raw coyote]

each class can select a mastery

once you choose that mastery, you can't change it for that character, you have to reroll a new toon

[minor path]

oh ok

[minor path]

i'm new bro so it's normal 😉

[raw coyote]

?

[static glacier]

For the start ride a 2 filter rule ....

[minor path]

i only have 5h on the game

[raw coyote]

I know, that was for the other ppl trying to give you filter advice

when you don't need it

(yet)

[minor path]

ok

[static glacier]

Show set/exa/uni on top thats your saftey net for later

Hide normal items

Done 👀

You can fill the middle later

[wide inlet]

Someone see the model changes on primalist since the update ?

[stone granite]

of course

it was previewed weeks ago

[wide inlet]

I mean i don't see the difference between before & after In game ...

[brittle atlas]

old vs new

[wide inlet]

Hmmm okok not really awesome here 😦

[cunning spindle]

I have a few questions.

1. Is there an ah/trading for endgame?
2. Is there any endgame content or just the 9 acts that has been released?
3. Any hard bosses or challanges you can farm/do for minmaxing or do you just steamroll after the acts?
4. Is there character wipes every patch or will there bo only one at launch?
5. Should i wait for the game to release for a better experience? i wanna put in a bit of hours of grind etc

[green tendon]

1. No, but it's planned. Multiplayer is not out yet.
2. Yes. Monolith and Arena are the current end games, there are more systems planned.
3. Yes.
4. No, though once online play is released, offline chars cannot merge over (you can currently edit local files to cheat, so that'd be bad)
5. I, and many others, enjoy the game in its current state. It's good already, and only getting better. Some people play 10-50 hours a patch and then put it down until the next one to see what's new, others play constantly.

!multiplayer

[ripe brook]

Multiplayer's still in development. Here's the latest news: https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/official-last-epoch-multiplayer-faq/42036.

[green tendon]

!release

[ripe brook]

You can find our latest news on this subject here: https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/road-to-1-0-july-2021-development-update/42207.

[cunning spindle]

Very cool, i will give it a try then!

Thanks 😄

[green tendon]

My personal reason for buying/playing the game early is that the devs are super transparent and clear about goals/results. It’s not fast, but it’s good, and will be better.

[inland jetty]

did minions get some type of minion regen starting a necro and skeletons seem to have like 1% life regen at lvl 1

[static glacier]

It is a stat on gear

And you can get massive ammounts

[cursive cradle]

any idea what a bad module error is?

[green tendon]

!support

[ornate coral]

im assuming on rip blood you only need one of these nodes

https://puu.sh/I9bZk/294f67039c.png

fairly sure i read it wrong initially

[flint abyss]

did you guys implement a VFX limit? it seems that the music itself is part of it and gets cut whenever I do too many sound effects at the same time

[swift cairn]

Does anyone know where the new unique dagger drops from?

[knotty hinge]

I found it from a random mob

[swift cairn]

oh, nice, thanks

[honest acorn]

so this is my filter

why is this showing on ground?

[stone granite]

That's a terrible filter

[woeful orbit]

can bosses drop 2 of there pool uniques at the same time?

[brittle atlas]

if you take both it can splatter twice

[ornate coral]

[knotty hinge]

Yes

[woeful orbit]

sweet thanks

[honest acorn]

@stone granite why is it terrible?

[stone granite]

You had to go through and select every affix to hide, rather just hiding all then showing specific affixes you want

And it broke the filter

[woeful orbit]

are all the new uniques empowered timelines only?

[brittle atlas]

no

[honest acorn]

ohh I see. thanks

[brittle atlas]

10 are boss specific, two of which are empowered specific. the rest are world drops.

and obviously can only drop in zones with their required level or high

[stone granite]

Basically the filter is showing that item because it doesn't fit every requirement of your conditions, meaning the affix is not hidden

If you have conflicting conditions on a rule it won't necessarily work like you expect

[woeful orbit]

nice thanks, now I just need to know where Eternal Eclipse drops from my only date I have is one streamer got it from the black sun from first kill and I have killed it 11 times with no drop XD

[brittle atlas]

Eternal Eclipse is black sun boss

but it's the rare drop

can drop in normal or empowered

[woeful orbit]

so I´m just REALLLLLY unluck you are saying?

[brittle atlas]

probably not that particularly unlucky even

It's probably like 15 or 10% drop chance

[woeful orbit]

I see guess I will use 10 more hours tomorrow then

[brittle atlas]

if your build can handle it, would highly recommend setting up for max movement if you're farming a low corruption empowered or normal monos

it's a huge time save

if you can cut your boss loop time down to like 30 minutes or so

[woeful orbit]

my build is kinda fast doing one in 45 min

[brittle atlas]

yeah, if your build can handle higher corruption or sacrifice damage/survival for movement speed uniques you can get it super fast

like last patch on lich I had boss loops down to 17 minutes for Stolen Lance

[languid roost]

can someone explain impair the weak for abyssal echoes? does it make the decay damage only apply when the enemies is hit by other skills? and if so whats the benefit of that

[fiery heron]

I keep being stunned and losing my cooldown on Rebuke, is this intended? Is it because I get stunned in the wind-up animation and thus not gaining the stun-immunity?

[stone granite]

Someone earlier said if you have increased cast speed it can break it

but I'm pretty sure they changed interruptions in the last patch too

[fiery heron]

I'm honestly not even sure its related to stuns... but I don't have cast speed

it feels really shit

[sharp grotto]

Rebuke, forgotten skill

[stone granite]

well I've been using it just fine, it seems to be 50/50 on people complaining about it

There has to be something breaking rebuke for some people and not others, no idea yet

[fiery heron]

revalasti, are you using Riposte / Vengenace?

[stone granite]

nope

warpath

[slender pumice]

Hi Chat. I'm having issues with my steam - where opening via steam gives me a login screen, and logging in tells me i don't have a license. Anyone have any idea how to unfu<k this particular issue?

[stone granite]

!support

[ripe brook]

Anything we can help with? We've support articles and a contact form at https://support.lastepoch.com/.

[fiery heron]

Lol my rebuke just failed 10 times in a row, ran out of potions and died

this is damn near unplayable for no apparent reason

[stone granite]

Like I said, I have had zero problems with it and can't seem to figure out why others are.

[fiery heron]

@stone granite can u try using it in the middle of a move-animation? Look for ~half a second where the animation doesnt play

also, do you have any cast speed?

[stone granite]

I have zero cast speed bonuses and I can use it to interrupt warpath no problem

I haven't had it fail once since patch

[fiery heron]

tried with Warpath, same shit. Now I even bugged out my running animation to just be floating

[merry aspen]

do the passive bonuses i picked up from the skill tree become part of the passive and do they double when i activate holy aura or does this apply to the base damage and elemental resistances?

[brittle atlas]

They become part of the passive and double when active

[merry aspen]

🙏 big ups

[minor path]

i can't put my game in fullscreen my mouse can go on my 2nd screen how could i fix that

[smoky glade]

in settings display mode is on fullscreen?

nvm it doesnt matter you can still go to second screen

gameplay --> lock cursor to game window

@minor path

[minor path]

yes

[smoky glade]

enable lock cursor to game window, its on the bottom under 'gameplay'

[minor path]

ok i will check

it's working

thank you

😉

[smoky glade]

np

[spare citrus]

See the forum. Cast speed and fps. Let me also tag @fiery heron

[stone granite]

Well someone else was complaining and said they had no cast speed bonus

could be mistaken though

[spare citrus]

Below 50 fps also seems to do it

With no cast speed

[stone granite]

that doesn't make sense, but I don't generally get that low

[spare citrus]

It might not make sense but I could also reproduce it

[stone granite]

forced frame rate cap?

[spare citrus]

Nope. Just not such a good laptop.

[paper kettle]

Does Javelin (Divine Fury) benefit from Armor Shred / Fraility?

[minor path]

do you have a release date for the warlock and falconer?

[stone granite]

Press G in game to see what ailments do

[paper kettle]

oh cool, thx

but there isnt a Frailty tab in the Game Guide under Ailments

[brittle atlas]

frailty makes enemies do 6% less damage and stacks 3 times

[paper kettle]

per stack or in total? and why isnt it in the game guide :S i searched Frailty

[brittle atlas]

per stack

if you hold alt on an item with frailty it should say what it does

[paper kettle]

ok thx 🙂

[stone granite]

sometimes ctrl + alt shows more

[acoustic thicket]

Hey bois, good starter class to get a hang on the games mechanics?

[sage siren]

hey what build is batter flame rave or shodow Cascade

[stone granite]

pick the one you enjoy

[sage siren]

i enjoy both but i was asking is one stronger then the otherone

one

[ocean bobcat]

So i just come back after a long break...is dodge no longer good?

[brittle atlas]

Dodge is fine, but only some classes/builds can make good use of it

Even more so now that the dodge on potion use affix got removed

[ocean bobcat]

playing blademaster and i having issues staying alive....even with really high dodge chance

[brittle atlas]

What level are you?

And skill/build?

[ocean bobcat]

49

[brittle atlas]

On bladedancer you can definitely get good dodge, but like any build, you need to layer defenses

At level 49 that’s basically just gonna be like

[ocean bobcat]

resistance or GB?

[brittle atlas]

Some hp and resists on gear

Bladedancer has a lot of good glancing blow nodes too

[ocean bobcat]

so do you not stat dodge on your gear?

[brittle atlas]

Generally no

You want to get flat dodge from passives/skill effects

And at most you might use increased dodge on weapons

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/lomzeJAJ

I shared this set up in the rogue channel the other day

But it has most of the key defensive nodes that any bladedancer will want

And has similar suffixes on gear

Some builds with be slightly different

Like if you’re using swords you can drop Apostacy because you can get glancing blow for using swords

[static wren]

How is penetration these days? All working as intended?

Like is 10% penetration effectively 10% more damage?

[brittle atlas]

Should be, yeah. Haven’t heard otherwise

It’s 10% more if you only have 10%

But it’s additive with more pen and shred

[static wren]

yep yep

It just was never worth it once upon a time

[inner quarry]

does LE have any smart loot?

[brittle atlas]

Yes

There is slight smart loot such that you’re more likely to get class specific items on the right class

[stiff stone]

Lol, meanwhile on my sentinel every unique/set item I get is for minions

[dense remnant]

sentinel has minion builds

also im not 100%, but i dont think smart loot applies to uniques

[pallid crag]

wondering when they'll add a minion to the mage class so that every class can play with minions lol

[brittle atlas]

The showcase skill for runemaster or whatever is like summon golem or something

[fading jackal]

Is it known that sometimes Rebuke does not actually reduce damage taken while channeling?

It doesn't even show the effect and I'm unsure how it's happening.

[stone granite]

yes

[static wren]

What's a decent Freeze Rate % to aim for?

Currently have +258% and I freeze at a reasonable rate but I'm wondering if there's a good figure to aim for, like 400% or something

[raw coyote]

I mean, I've seen items w/ 300% freeze rate on them

so... 🤷‍♂️

[crystal niche]

will minion damage scale minion DoTs?

the generic 'minon damage' affix I mean

[snow spruce]

Yes

[vernal bluff]

when a passive node in a skill (i.e. Scorching Tide on Flame Reave) says increased melee damage, does it also increase elemental melee damage or only physical melee damage?

[green tendon]

If it doesn't specify, it's generic.

Meaning it affects damage of any type.

[vernal bluff]

oki thanks

[ocean marsh]

hey guys, newbie here, Is there a way to farm the unique boots morningfrost? I've been doing echos in spirits of fire non stop for a very long time now and havent seen any unique boots nodes, wondering if im doing something wrong or if theres another way to getting them?

[brittle atlas]

they can just drop, but being a low level unique they're less likely to drop at higher levels

luckily, they're relatively common rarity-wise

[cedar merlin]

gamble for leather boots and pray 🙂

[ocean marsh]

i cant gamble them from a vendor either right?

can i?

[cedar merlin]

i think u can

[brittle atlas]

You can't gamble uniques anymore

[cedar merlin]

oh mb

[ocean marsh]

aww 😦

[green tendon]

To be fair, it's been that way since friday, so it's understandable that you didn't know it had changed

[minor path]

can i reset my passive?

[green tendon]

Yes.

There's a brain icon on the map in some towns, talk to that dude.

The only thing you can't reset is your mastery class.

[minor path]

thank you

[hollow socket]

Javelin's "siege barrage" can shotgun, right?

[brittle atlas]

yes

[hollow socket]

Nice, that's good to hear.

[kind vapor]

is there a way to skip bossfights if you accidentally go to town before continuing the quest chain (act 9 last boss specifically, went to town instead of talking to NPC after)

or am i just f-ed and have to do it again

[kind vapor]

just had to do it again, unlucky but whatever

[stone granite]

Just for future information, there shouldn't be any reason to tp back to town instead of just continuing. Zones reset when you leave them and in the endgame you can't leave without automatically failing.

[hollow socket]

On that note, it's also important to know that you can press F to use the forge wherever, for crafting or shattering.

[dense remnant]

@stone granite not completely accurate. You can tp out of an echo and it doesnt fail the echo, you can use it to reroll the mob type.

[thin canopy]

did i understand correctly that , dodge on potion use no longer drops ?

qua sgards ?

[green tendon]

What

[paper lantern]

Is lootfilter broken?

Trying to hide all rares 5 levels below my main character level and still showing low lv items.

[stone granite]

you probably just have it set up wrong

though I'm not sure how you'd set it to do that

[stone granite]

if you add any show rule above it, it will override that rule

[green tendon]

I forget, is it default to have the level range be 0 to 0 or is that making the rule only be active at level 0?

[paper lantern]

Show rule as in what? I have everything set to hide

[stone granite]

you should watch a video on how to setup a proper loot filter

[green tendon]

It's not working because you have it set to depend on character level 0

Uncheck character level dependency

[thin canopy]

my lowest filter is hide all , then i just set things to show .. i am using all teh colours to make it a bit more visible ..

[paper lantern]

That's what it was. Wow lol

[thin canopy]

i still like to see low lvl item drops what have + skills to any of the 5 basic classes . i can always decide if i want that one or not

[green tendon]

Easy to miss stuff like that.

[thin canopy]

i realy hope they add later a search filter in main ,. where all yer chars are . so if yer looking for 1 item , you know only you got it 1x .. yer dont have to go search for it on all the toons .. took me 30 mins to find my jungle queen belt

and glad i did .. 10 slot .. lvl 14 , +5 dex and dodge on potion drink for 4 secs

[abstract aspen]

hi guys took a break from LE for a while. just wanna ask if there is already display icons for buffs ingame? or not yet?

[knotty hinge]

You won't see an icon for every buff as they try to limit them. The import ones are to the right of your health orb.

[green tendon]

Mike apparently did add a bunch this patch, but not all of them.

[dense remnant]

Yeah theres a lot more now, i think everything id want to have a buff icon for has one, at least for this build

[abstract aspen]

^^^thank you!

[thin canopy]

and welcome back , with a new patch , and the new god

[crystal niche]

what is base mana regen based on

[copper fable]

its a flat value, 8. its not based on anything other then that.

Obviously mana regen increases it, so 100% increased regen gets you 16 and so on.

[crystal niche]

thanks

[frigid orbit]

Does anyone already know in which timeline the new unique gloves Frostbite Shackles drop?

[fading jackal]

How does the Forceful Hurl node in the Javelin tree work? Are you supposed to wait to throw Javelins to get the bonus?

[timber ridge]

theres a loadingscreen that says that monsters pierce up to 75% res. do i need 150 res to cap then?

[frigid orbit]

No, resistance pen is applied after the cap; overcapping resistance is not helpful for pen.

You effectively have at most 0% resistance on higher levels when capping your resistance; game is balanced around this. Overcapping resistance only helps against debuffs like mark of death (not sure about the name) which reduces your resistance (different to pen)

[timber ridge]

and how important is it to cap tbh? im sitting at 60-75+ atm and its np in lvl 75-80 content

[green tendon]

Each % resistance under 75 makes you take 1% more damage, once you're at area level 75+. Below that it's slightly different but not notably so.

[frigid orbit]

It's different to PoE (if you are familiar). Because it is balanced around havin effectively 0% resistance it is not as important as in PoW

[green tendon]

70% resistance means 5% more damage taken, instead of PoE's 20%.

[timber ridge]

yeah coming from poe with lots of hours there

[dense remnant]

to put it simply:

[frigid orbit]

Try to get close to 75% but not forcing it is usually enough. dont waste too much damage

[dense remnant]

capped res, means you're res is at the same number as the area level. Or at 75, if area level is above 75.

So for example: First timeline/mono is lvl 58, so you only need 58 res to be capped for it

[timber ridge]

well damage is a joke so far...everthing dies while spinning through it^^

[dense remnant]

it matters more when you're pushing content

or going into stuff very underlevelled

[frigid orbit]

Even in 58 timelines going for 75% resistance boosts your survivability. You effectively have 17% damage reduction this way

[fiery heron]

How often do we generally get smaller patches with bugfixes?

[dense remnant]

i dont think thats true oeller

but i might be wrong, never heard that before so not sure

[frigid orbit]

Monsters get penetration based on level. Pen reduces resistance. You can still get to 75% but only lose 58% res in 58 level areas.

But it mostly wont matter as in low level zones you will rarely have any problems 😄

[dense remnant]

oh yeah, huh

i should definitely put more void res on when running through the first acts lmao

[nova shard]

how do i summon only one companion? i want to summon a wolf and a crow but it wont let me

[crystal niche]

Is rebuke bugged ATM? It constantly fails to channel when I press it

[fading jackal]

yeah

[sonic kraken]

What's the level cap?

[fading jackal]

happens to me a lot

[fiery heron]

@dense remnant "To counteract this, enemies have a 1% resistance penetration per level, scaling up to 75%. This resistance penetration is applied after the cap. This means that at level 75 and above, being 25% below capped resistance will only cause you to take 25% more damage." aka: If you have 50% res, and mobs penetrate 75% res, you take 25% more damage, compared to having 0 res. I feel like that Oeller guy just argues that getting to 0% resistance makes content doable?

[frigid orbit]

I just said that getting 75% resistance even has a benefit in areas below level 75. Aurora first said that you have maximum damage reduction at 58% resistance in 58 zones which is wrong.

[fiery heron]

@frigid orbit Oh, I read it as if you were the one saying that.

[snow spruce]

No, its not. The only thing that having more than 58 res in level 58 areas is going to do for you is that you'll have some protection against shred. Other than that its just as useless as having more than 75% resistances in level 75+ areas.

[fiery heron]

I'm with Oeller here, based on what I read just now on the official site, aka the quote

[bleak terrace]

Is it possible to copy a rule from a filter into another filter?

[fiery heron]

Mobs having pen is never going to update your character tooltip, right?

[frigid orbit]

The resistance cap always is 75%. Which would reduce your damage taken by 75%. Enemies penetrate your resistance based on area level. Penetration is applied after applying the resistance cap. With 75% resistance in an area level 40 you have effectively 35% resistance and thus a 35% damage reduction.

[fiery heron]

@bleak terrace yea, you can duplicate filter rules now, I think I read that in the patch notes.

[bleak terrace]

duplicate just does it within that 1 overall filter

[fiery heron]

@frigid orbit yea, that's how it would work in PoE for sure.

@frigid orbit meaning that overcapped resistance is better than just base resistance, since its an additive damage reduction stat

per point

[frigid orbit]

But in this game you only can overcap against shred not against penetration.

[snow spruce]

Hmmm... I stand corrected. Although I could have sworn I read somewhere/have seen information contrary to that... oh well.

[timber ridge]

can i speed up gambling or do i have to wait and feel the weight between each item=

[frigid orbit]

Yeah. Weight. CW style

[fiery heron]

@frigid orbit oh yea? Good to know

@frigid orbit i aint played much endgame since the defense changes hit

my current char just 'died' to Rebuke being bugged beyond belief, so prolly ain't happening this time either lol

[frigid orbit]

Penetration is applied after the resistance cap. Thus, overcapping rarely makes sence. Only saves you for some of the resistance debuffs (mark of deth) and shred.
Your effective maximum resistance is 0% at endgame.

[fiery heron]

@frigid orbit now that I think about it, that's what happens in PoE too, so its just me brainfarting

then resistances are way less important than in PoE , prolly for the better

[dense remnant]

capping them still matters

and is nearly always the best way to increase ehp

(for the stat slot)

[fiery heron]

yea but it scales differently from PoE because of the 0 cap

[dense remnant]

this isnt poe though

comparing them doesnt really do anything

[fiery heron]

what

[dense remnant]

your comparing res against other things that increase ehp in this game

[fiery heron]

it's still basic math in the end

[dense remnant]

as long as res is still the best way to increase ehp, it still matters the most

what poe does doesnt factor into that

[fiery heron]

the math works differently when the cap is 75% rather than 0%

[dense remnant]

the math doesnt matter, becuase what you're lookinga t is ehp

and res is the best way to increase ehp

[fiery heron]

whatever gives the most ehp is completely moot to this talk

[dense remnant]

O.o

[fiery heron]

im not talking about specifics in any of the games

[dense remnant]

ehp is all res is about

lol

[frigid orbit]

You are right. But you have to change your mindset a little if used to PoE. As in PoE it is the most important stat for EHP. Here you should consider to skip the last percent resistance for other more useful stats if you would lose a lot!

[dense remnant]

potentially, but then you just need to optimise your build better

[fiery heron]

going from 65% to 75% in PoE is life and death... going from -10% to 0% makes a difference and increases your ehp, sure

[dense remnant]

in poe it matters because sutained damage can kill you

that shouldnt be how you view this game for defense

one shots are basically all you take into account

[fiery heron]

I give up...

[dense remnant]

so that 10% is very important still

because it reduces how many things will one shot you

a lot more than anything else basically

(or at least stuff youd take res over)

[fiery heron]

you can keep stating the obvious all you want

[dense remnant]

i mean, yeah, thats my point

[copper fable]

The take away atleast for me as a poe player too, is that in last epoch there is still a choice to be made. You can choose to run say 40% poison resistance instead of 75%, you lose EHP. but you dont immediately die generally. Where as in PoE if you have 40% res, you pretty much fall over to anything ever.

[dense remnant]

im not trying to pretend this isnt obvious lol

[fiery heron]

yes

[copper fable]

The swings in damage in LE for choose to not cap a resistance are far less punishing.

[dense remnant]

yeah its more about one shots ini this

[fiery heron]

thats why i said 'prolly for the better'

[dense remnant]

cus leech is overpowered, among other things that sustain you

[fiery heron]

@copper fable

[timber ridge]

a different question...do monster mods stack additive or multiplicative? atm in a mono with 30% incr dam and another 72% inc dam

[frigid orbit]

inc is always additive

[copper fable]

I much prefer the LE system of resistences so far vs any other arpg ive played because Ive played a few builds well into 80 monos with literally like 20% of some res, yeah you might die if you screw up. but you generally have a pretty wide choice on how you tackle items because of the great way they chose to handle resistances.

[fiery heron]

@frigid orbit isnt there some kinda exception in LE with regards to 'inc dmg' in the skill tree or soemthing

[shrewd onyx]

Does a triggerd skills count toward "you cast" Ex: X now cast X when you hit a monster.

[dense remnant]

increased is all additive, more is multiplicative

[frigid orbit]

Inc in skill trees is mostly always its own multiplier and acts like a more multiplier for this skill. Most of the time it will say (multipicative). There is only a difference for buffs provided by skills. They should differ between inc and more.

[fiery heron]

@copper fable yea, adding choice is always the best way to go. But it's prolly a huge undertaking to change core systems for other games now

@frigid orbit yea, which is not very beautiful if you ask me

@frigid orbit but introducing a 3rd term that's additive but then multiplicative might be even less so

[frigid orbit]

Yhea. I think they should have stayed with 'more' in these cases

[fiery heron]

@frigid orbit yea, prolly the trick was to scale it multiplicatively and call it more, just for the intuition. Guessing all PoE players learn this the hard way lol

[crystal niche]

If I have two different nodes on a skill's tree that both say (multiplicatively) they multiply each other right?

they don't get added up into one big multiplier?

[fiery heron]

yea

[frigid orbit]

yes

[crystal niche]

cool

[dense remnant]

im confused at what you're thinking of with increased doing more?

incresed is all additive

more is all multiplicative

[fiery heron]

'inc dmg' that's in your skill tree is an additive multiplier , but it's effectively a more multiplier if you don't have many of those nodes

[dense remnant]

there isnt anything in between those two, or mixing them up afaik, and if there is thats probably a bug/tooltip mistake

[frigid orbit]

If a Skill has a talent which grants increased damage with the statemant '(multiplicative)' it acts like a more multiplier

[copper fable]

Some of the wording is really suspect I think might be the issue.

https://i.imgur.com/psv4oeD.png is this more or increased.

[dense remnant]

that does 105% more damage

[copper fable]

The tool tip states its increased, but the description says its more.

[dense remnant]

if a skill say its does more multiplicative with other modifiers, its a more modifier

not increased

[crystal niche]

the skill says both increased and more

[fiery heron]

this is not the ideal example tho

this clearly has wording issues in it

[slim cloak]

Hey, everyone. New player here. I'm at the quest where I have to choose my mastery and am following a guide where I have to put 77 points into Void Knight and 15 into Paladin. If I choose Void Knight when/will I be able to put the points in Paladin as well? Thanks!

[frigid orbit]

Yeah, maybe they finally changed most of the wording. But at some point there were some cases where skills had increase in the description but provided more damage

[crystal niche]

yes

[dense remnant]

you get access to the first half of the masteries you didnt pick

[crystal niche]

you are able to spend points on all mastery trees up to where the line is

big threaded line runs through the middle of the tree

[slim cloak]

Fantastic! Thanks so much! 🙂

[ocean marsh]

there is something seriously wrong with this system to target farm uniques, im level 90+ now have been spamming spirits of fire non stop for hours on end, and only saw the unique boots node once this entire time, im trying to get a lvl 7-8 unique thats supposed to be fairly common - morningfrost- but it just doesnt drop for me 😕

[fiery heron]

whats the tl;dr of target farming uniques in Last Epoch?

[hard plover]

The "Righteous Overload" node on Smite requires the smite Hit to kill it's target or does it proc from Ignites caused by Smite?

awesome thanks

omg i finally got the boots, minimum roll but i finally got it \o/

[marsh maple]

Im proud @ocean marsh

[ocean marsh]

just had to vent my frustrations and the game provides 😂

[frosty mirage]

Rngesus heard your cries and decided to be merciful after rolling a yeet 20 on his 20d

[timber ridge]

does the dps calculation/tooltip take full doom stacks into account?
got this ring and it massively boosts my dps

[dense remnant]

it takes the doom chance into account yes

same as with items with %chance to ignite on hit etc...

[timber ridge]

so its like id check everything in pob^^

well thats not that great tbh

[dense remnant]

the tooltip dps isnt the most amazing thing, but its more there to give a general idea

if you understand where damage is coming from, you can use it as a fairly good guide as to what piece of gear is an upgrade

[copper fable]

Can I get a run down on corruption for timelines, I know that you can lower or increase it based on how far away you fight orobyss, but im assuming there is no way for a blanket reset on corruption

[pallid crag]

Nope

[copper fable]

Spooky, thanks

[raw coyote]

What are the abilities that reduce the decay from reaper?

[terse roost]

getting more leech. theres a node in reaper to iirc

[hollow socket]

The seal can also stop decay for its duration, not sure if that applies to reaper form.

[raw coyote]

it doesn't

[pallid crag]

Yeah just get full damage leech

[raw coyote]

that's not the point

[frigid orbit]

Does anyone already know in which timeline the new unique gloves Frostbite Shackles and the sword Leviathan Carver drop?

[pallid crag]

Well frobel there really isn't much you can do outside leech

[raw coyote]

yeah i'm finding i'm stuck w/ very few options playing this build

[terse roost]

i mean thats the entire theme of the Lich mastery. health drain and leech

[raw coyote]

yeah, it's not that

jsut the lack of synergy for the 4th and 5th skill of thebuild

Is there any way to add movement skills to LMB ?

[balmy current]

click on the LMB icon & select one of your existing skills

[raw coyote]

only 3 things show up when i click on LMB

move only, move or break, move or atack

[frigid orbit]

When selecting move or attack you can bind one of the other keys as an attack

[raw coyote]

oh

ok so it'll only trigger when I'm over / targeting a mob

it's not working

[amber cedar]

Since 0.8.3b I'm permanently stuck on the title screen

See several others have been too according to forum threads

The solutions presented in those threads don't work for me... Has anyone else had this before I go filing a support ticket?

[raw coyote]

oh you have to actually click...

le sigh

guess it's back to autocast

is there a bug with hardcore solo ladder? its showing the same as the softcore solo ladder

[copper fable]

Armor can go into the negatives yeah?

[knotty hinge]

[balmy current]

It grants haste to all of your allies nearby when you use Lunge, you don't get it & it doesn't give haste to allies near where you end up

[plain oxide]

does % increased fire damage increase my minions fire damage?

[balmy current]

No, only minion affixes affect minions

[plain oxide]

Would % increase minion damage affect minion fire damage?

[copper fable]

Yes, generic minion damage buffs everything the minions do. And if its a specific type of damage, say melee or spell, then Melee minion damage will buff all types of that damage.

[plain oxide]

okay thank you <3

[ripe sundial]

What are the best builds people are finding this patch? Everything I've been playing has been falling off at 75+ Either getting blasted by damage or just not being able to get enough single target.

[lament nest]

lighting damage vs lightning penetration. Which is better?

[stone granite]

it's not an either/or, get both

[brittle atlas]

penetration in almost every realistic case

but technically it depends on how much penetration/shred you have and how much increased damage you have

[hard palm]

on "normal" builds, 1% penetration = 5% inc dmg give or take. on poison builds, just probably ignore it as you should have enough from poisons

[brittle atlas]

^

poison is a good example of when pen is worse, because it is additive with all of the shred from poison stacks

[hard palm]

usually on non poison, yeah you go for basically all the pen available

like always take the blessing for shred

assuming you hit even remotely frequently

[outer pagoda]

is there a way to transfer ur crafting materials to your inventory? i "accidentally" chose solo when making my character thinking it'd be similar to SSF in poe for example.

[knotty hinge]

No.

[outer pagoda]

unluck, guess i better get crafting then before i migrate

i got some good stuff for my next character and i dont want to lose them all when i eventually rip on my current one :D

[ivory grail]

I'm confused with the Area Level displayed in the monolith - what does it mean? Second question: does the monolith scales to your level? That is, if you are level 79 fighting level 90 echos that the monsters will be scaled town to my level?

[urban horizon]

Monsters will still be level 90 so monolith doesn't scale with your level

[wary patio]

How do i tell what lvl areas are to know if im underlvl or overlvl?

[stone granite]

press tab, shows level top right

[wary patio]

Oh i see

Died twice in same spot(hardcore) so imma use that next time to see

[green spindle]

I feel stupid for asking this but is there a key to pick up item on the ground? Or can I bind a key for that action? I mean it might already be there but I can’t seem to find it

[stone granite]

no

you just click on stuff to pick it up

[green spindle]

I see. Not a big inconvenience but would be nice if they add it. Sometimes it’s a bit to pick up items by mouse when there are a lot of stuff on the ground

[stone granite]

Not in this game. There's no reason to pick most stuff up, vendoring is a waste of time

best to make a proper loot filter

[wary patio]

why is vendoring not worth it?

[green spindle]

Very little gold

[wary patio]

i see

so loot filter for yellow and above i take it?

[stone granite]

10x more gold will drop in a single stack than you will get selling a single item

[green spindle]

I like to collect items for my alts and I have lots of alts, so I can’t really set my filter to be too specific

[stone granite]

the loot filter is a lot better than just filtering out rarities

[neat carbon]

Any good source for current blessings?

[green spindle]

And in late Monolith, t15+ drops quite often

[stone granite]

Well man, you are putting that pain on yourself then

[green spindle]

Yeah I know. So I was hoping there would be a easier way to pick up items like Grim Dawn. But no biggie, still enjoying the game thoroughly. And my latest filter is much better now

[knotty hinge]

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/timelines

[neat carbon]

@knotty hinge thanks man

[left drift]

for leveling purposes,lis it better to go to the highest level monolith you have unlocked or just try to stick to the closest to your level? (if there's some kind of -xp malus for being too low lvl for the zone or something)

[fading jackal]

matter of efficiency in any game

[hard palm]

no penalty

yeah just speed

well some games have a penalty if you're too underleveled

[fading jackal]

if you take 10 minutes to do a lvl 75 mono at 60, but 3 minutes at a 66 one, maybe try that

[hard palm]

p sure he's just asking if there's an xp penalty for being underleveled

[fading jackal]

can make up the xp loss with the tomes of experience at least a little bit

well it's almost a double question

[left drift]

yea,that clears it up for me,thanks!

[oak anvil]

How does increased leech rate work? Does it decrease the window from 3 seconds?

[brittle atlas]

pretty sure it reduces the time?

so you leech the same amount faster

[oak anvil]

That's what I thought.

[whole scarab]

Hi, about to purchase the game for the first time but noticed there are supporter tiers, is it possible to upgrade my purchase later on if I enjoy the game?

[abstract pecan]

In the future yes. It’s currently not possible.

[whole scarab]

Thanks

[green spindle]

Are there other ways to increase the map level for lower level Monolith besides getting the empowered version?

I thought doing the Obysorro Boss and reset the web would do that but then I noticed it doesn’t work all the time?

[brittle atlas]

killing orobyss increases corruption, not the area levels

corruption is a multiplier to enemy hp, enemy damage, modifier strength, experience gain, and loot rarity

[green spindle]

Right, but then I noticed there would be change in the map level after reset, sometimes plus 1-2, so I thought they could also affect map level.

[rough marsh]

can i proc water orb from an attack? it doesnt specify on ucenui's sphere

[brittle atlas]

yep, any hit

[rough marsh]

well it seems bis for the ice spear builkd then

i just tried it, and it didnt proc

how do i see if the water orb is up? is it on skilltree or just visualk on ground. might have missed it

oh nvm i see it. it just shoots a ball doesnt show a buff. cool

last question, how do i see my blessings? trying to figure out how i have 11 attunement on this char

founbd it

[dark fox]

On the character panel, you should see a blessings tab on the top

[dense remnant]

@brittle atlas corruption does increase area level, but as empowered are already at 100 you only see it in normals, and those are capped at how high the area level can go, because corruption is capped at 50 in them

[smoky estuary]

hey everybody, anyone know how i can fix the black screen"bug" ? i can play normally, tried to change the graphic quality but cannot fix it. its only in the new act

[timber temple]

im using this sorcerer lightning blast mage build guide https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/0-8-2-wast3ds-lightning-blast-showcase-beginners-guide/29134 and it seems to only have 20 points for the mage tree even though i already have 25 skill points at level 23 so im a little confused.

[raw fern]

Try changing the anti aliasing options. The SMAA is bugged.

[cloud kindle]

During leveling he probably kept several points to use them after. Sometimes it's better keep a point and put it in your mastery (Sorcerer) rather than in your class (Mage)

[timber temple]

ok so i guess you can spend points in your base class or the specialization when you get skill points?

or i should say passive points

[cloud kindle]

At the beginning you can spend points in your base class only. Then, at Chapter 4, you chose your mastery. Then, you can spend points in your base class, in your whole mastery tree or in the first half of the trees of the other masteries

[timber temple]

ok make sense, thanks

[cloud kindle]

my pleasure

[smoky estuary]

helped ty

[peak shard]

hey, I play bladedancer half of the marksman is available but falconer is locked, is it supposed to be like this?

[timber temple]

are there any resists that are more important than others wile leveling or should try to max out all resists? im i currently just stated the imperial era

[dense remnant]

@peak shard falconer isnt in the game yet, so yes

[peak shard]

oh, makes sense

[dense remnant]

@timber temple void + phys in first chapters, add in necrotic after you pick mastery, then lightning+cold when you get to the snowy places, then everything else when you get to act 9. Fire might be useful at some point before act 9, but I've never felt a need to get it up

[cloud kindle]

Fire just after Necrotic zone, then just after Snow zone 😉

[dense remnant]

isnt there only like

2 maps after necrotic before snowy?

then 1? after snowy?

doesnt seem worth

main reason you need cold and lightning is for liath and lagon

[cloud kindle]

A bit more than 1, but not many. Not really worth, except maybe for Osprix Mages

yep

No such main reason for fire, sure

[balmy current]

Yeah, it's not like Osprix Embermages do much damage with their forking big fireball if you don't dodge it.

[frosty mirage]

Yeah, outside of a few fights, fire isn’t really a factor until Monos and you’re having to fight 4 siege golems at once in tight quarters

[dense remnant]

yeah i mean, if you want to be tanky and stuff

[humble junco]

was looking at "less damage taken on crit as weapon secondary". If i got a perfect T5 roll (or T6/7) of 50% does that effectively mean the same as 100% crit avoid ? i.e. do monsters only ever have 200% crit multi as max ?

[dense remnant]

then absolutely cap res

but if you're just zooming through, eh

its not needed in that you'll die due to stuff that wasnt a mistake

[balmy current]

Yes, 50% reduced damage from crits will negate the additional damage crits do

[dense remnant]

just dont mess up and you can get away without taking it, unlike other res's in other parts

[frosty mirage]

Crit avoidance is still preferred

[cloud kindle]

why?

(curious)

to avoid normal hits?

[frosty mirage]

To avoid crit hits, plus typically on the suffix of weapons I’m taking another suffix. Depends on the build, but a lot of my builds focus around another modifier such as freeze rate for my shammy or slow for soft CC and AoE effectiveness

[dense remnant]

@balmy current crit multi is 200% for enemies as well though right?

in which case you need more than 50%

as they're critting for 3x damage

[balmy current]

Yes

[balmy current]

No

200% crit multi = x2 damage

[dense remnant]

but multi is a more modifier (effectively)

so 100% is 2x

[balmy current]

Trust me, it's the only "multiplyer" in the game which ignores the usual maths.

[dense remnant]

ill ask a dev

[balmy current]

You can see it easily enough on the dummy, take a crit compared to a non-crit

I have complained about this to the devs many times.

[frigid orbit]

Llama is right as always 😉

[frosty mirage]

They take it as 100% = 1.0

[low root]

Well its a multiplier

[frosty mirage]

On the multiplier at least, as well as increased critical chance with non base modifier increase

[dense remnant]

nothing in the game points to that, and the game guide makes it sound like its 200% not 100%

so id rather get a devs response, than just trusting non devs :p

[frosty mirage]

Go for it

[dense remnant]

cus it needs somethinig changing somewhere to illustrate that point if its the case

[frigid orbit]

If you hover over Crit Multiplier in the character sheet it says "multiplies damage dealt by critical strikes"

[balmy current]

https://imgur.com/a/1mN0X0e

[frosty mirage]

I trust Llama and his accounting

[rigid wagon]

Is there a way to unbug Zerrick quest after the slums ?

[low root]

Its litterally called crit multiplier, so its a multiplier. If I multiply 100 damage by 200% I get 200 damage

Looks clear enough to me

[frosty mirage]

To be fair, most other games 100% is 2x when talking about critical strikes

[low root]

You need to go to the oasis if you are stuck after going to lower city

[rigid wagon]

i can still continue even if the guys still need a little talk ?

[balmy current]

Which was what my feedback was & that the current situation would only (rightly) confuse people

[low root]

What do you mean?

[dense remnant]

other multipliers in last epoch dont work like that sadmic

[rigid wagon]

Zerrick need to talk to you after the fight in the underground with the scalebane master

[dense remnant]

so its not consistent in this game

if it is working that way

[balmy current]

Nope

[dense remnant]

which is wierd

[balmy current]

Yup

[low root]

What other multipliers that mention themselfs as multipliers dont work like that

[dense remnant]

all of them

[rigid wagon]

and Zerrick doesn't want to clear the quest

[dense remnant]

if you have only 50% more damage, you dont do half your damage

[low root]

Go to the oasis and do the quest there

[rigid wagon]

will try thanks

[balmy current]

Yeah, every single other damage modifier acts as "normal" (50% more or increased = x1.5), except crit multi

[frigid orbit]

To be fair 'Critical Strike Multiplier' is the only Multiplier in the game, others are sources of 'More' which are handled as a Multiplicative Group based at 1 whereas 'Increases' are an additive group based at 0.

[lean jungle]

50% more damage isn't strictly a multiplier though. The equivilent multiplier should be 1.5x multiplier.

[low root]

Im looking at the stat sheet and crit is the only thing that mentions multiplier

Everything else is just increased

[dense remnant]

O.o

well thats not true

oh you mean the character sheet

[balmy current]

And freeze rate multiplier

[low root]

True

[frigid orbit]

'Increases' and 'More' are all combined for damage calculation into multiplier: Increases are additive and '1 + sum of increases' is its own multiplier while for more it is '(1+ more) * ... * (1+more)' fives another multiplier. Crit Multiplier is its own multiplier and doesnt need a conversion

[low root]

Doesnt poe also work this way? I believe they show 150 crit multi in the sheet

Or 1.50x

[rigid wagon]

For references i wasn't able to get the quest to enter the mine because i didn't finish a side quest in the slums i don't know if it's a bug or not so i just spread the word

[solemn fern]

so how do I get my dual wielding back?

can't find the skill in the sentinel tree line

[cloud kindle]

It's a Sentinel passive point

[solemn fern]

@cloud kindle got it..thanks!

[cloud kindle]

[kind vapor]

is there a requirement for finding the unique target farm rewards in monoliths, ive done around 25 now and havent seen one pop up at all

[stiff stone]

If I lose my internet during gameplay, is there any chance anything weird will happen with the steam sync and i lose my game progress?

[frosty mirage]

Right now saves are local, internet connection should not impact save functionality by itself

Not sure if steam defers to local saves or not I believe it does

[knotty hinge]

Cloud sync can do wonky stuff if the process cannot finish. I do suggest backing up your saves periodically.

[stiff stone]

I just cut it during gameplay and the game crashed, then I remembered you have to login to play. So I believe that means you need a permanent internet connection

[cloud kindle]

It is something that uses code written by humans. Of course there is a chance anything weird happens. A very slight chance, but a chance though

[frosty mirage]

From my understanding only Chat and login authentication requires an internet connection. I’m at work now so I can’t test but I am fairly sure others have disabled their internet connection after logging in. Although I do not know if they did while using Steam or the direct launcher

[stone gust]

does % void damage increase the damage of time rot?

[frigid orbit]

yes

as long as it isn't melee/spell void damage

[stone gust]

👌

[warped skiff]

just bought the game! Is following a build recommended for first playthrough?

[frigid orbit]

It's more fun to try something yoruself. Besides the mastery you can cahnge everything very easily

[stone gust]

^

[warped skiff]

i tried getting into PoE for about 25ish hours from D2 and PD2 and just couldnt this on the other hands looks slightly harder than D3 but much more in my visual and game alley

so just dive in no guide for first playthrough?

[frigid orbit]

Maybe look for a fun playstyle you would like to try later to search for a mastery but first try to build something on your own based around this mastery. This way you have a "fall-back" and you dont need to level another cahracter when it doesnt work out

[frigid orbit]

It works!

[warped skiff]

Do i need any loot filter from the start?

[frigid orbit]

Will work without. You can learn/tweak it while leveling

[stone gust]

you can create them as you play. you open them wift shift+f

[warped skiff]

Thank you! And one last one! is this like d2 with pluggy where I have a shared stash or is it all SSF on any character I make?

[stone gust]

it's shared stash. unless you play a solo charachter. which is SSF

[warped skiff]

Sweet!

Thanks for all the info! Here i go 😄

[stone gust]

np, have fun !

[frosty mirage]

Luckily things don’t ramp up until later, and you should be able to finish the current end of campaign with almost any build

The community here is great so feel free to ask any questions

[lusty siren]

Has anyone seen this before? Suddently my loot filter drop down went empty, and everytime i open the loot filter menu, it wants me to create a new loot filter, even though the 5 i normally use is already in the filters folder, but i cant select any of them, because the drop down doesnt show any ? It happened after i switched to a char i havent played for a while, but it is broken on all chars now.

[warped skiff]

do you have to do all quests?

or is it like D2 where some quests only to get through and some give skill points others are just fluff?

[dense remnant]

dont have to do them all

not entirely sure on what the most efficient way to do things is, cus new act changed stuff up a little

but if you go to:https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/quests

you can see what quests givewhat

[frigid orbit]

Is it possible to again get used to play without shield rush when switching to another char after playing bleed paladin for a while? 😄

[stark tide]

Hello. I apologize in advance as I’m sure this is asked often. Could someone point me to a vid or article on what monolith and arena are like compared to maps or rifts? Thanks.

[knotty hinge]

Can you be more specific? Arena is simply endless waves. Monolith are similar to maps in poe.

[stark tide]

Sure. I'm about level 40 and was just curious what the endgame grind/time sink is like. I went to LE's site and it says endgame are Monolith and Arena and so I was curious to know how it's similar (or not similar) to what I'm more familiar with. Maps and rifts from the other two games.

New to the game and really enjoying it and looking for stuff to watch/read while I'm away from it. 🙂

[knotty hinge]

I don't believe anyone has made a direct comparison video. @pseudo cipher has created a great set of guides called Last Epoch University, the Monolith one can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzD_2WjiJWY. He also streams on Twitch (he's live now) and will be more than happy to answer any of your questions.

[stark tide]

Perfect. Thanks for the help!

[clever junco]

Did Glacier got nerfed ? Meteor does like 5-10k dmg and my glacier does like 2-4k

Didn't played for a while

[frosty mirage]

Meteor got a buff, I don’t believe the most recent patch touched Glacier itself

Might have been changed in a previous patch however depending on how long ago it was since you last played

[warm dust]

how hard is it to stun endgame bosses? Do we know actual numbers on it?

[clever junco]

Maybe 12-15 months since my last playthrough, but with the same items and crit meteor does at least twice the dmg it's kinda useless to play Glacier when you see this.

If it does, it's a bug

[wary patio]

Is there tips on how to do hardcore as a new player into LE been dying to those void weird looking enemies after i get to the cultist camp

[warped blaze]

attribute scaling applies to dots when used by the scaled ability correct?

[stone gust]

Don't be afraid to craft early game. if you are dying to void damage, craft void res onto your gear

[wary patio]

Crafting is well confusing i feel like

[stone gust]

what is it what you found confusing?

[wary patio]

The system on how to craft onto it, i figured out i can upgrade the stats themselves

[stone gust]

you can just upgrade the stats already on your items if the affix (stat) is the one you want. other wise, if you have an open affix you can add a stat to it.

[wary patio]

i see ok

[stone gust]

an item can have 4 affixes. 2 prefixes and 2 suffixes. on the crafting screen the item is in the middel of them. if you have an open affex you can click on the big + below the item to add an affix

Boardman21 did have a crafting guide on youtube IIRC

[wary patio]

oh ok

[snow spruce]

When applied by the scaled ability, yes.

[warped blaze]

when you cast smite through warpaths passive does it count as you casting it?

for purposes of sword of rahyeh in the pally tree

[wary patio]

can you not respecc regular passives?

[stone gust]

you can, at the big brain lady

[green tendon]

Gotta go to the brain icon dude

[wary patio]

oh her i see

[hollow socket]

If it's the lard ones that create multiple void damage areas on the ground, they give you a short moment to move away from their spell. Don't stand in it unless you have really good defenses since they're balanced around being avoided.

[green tendon]

Did I just incorrectly assume their gender

[stone gust]

what would be the non gender word for it..

big brain person

[green tendon]

Sure, let’s go with that

[stone gust]

yea alright. might need sleep atm

XD

[wary patio]

thanks

[outer pagoda]

can serpent strike spawn multiple serpents?

[gusty token]

I'm at the point now where I have everything that I need from the passive tree for Spellblade. What can I invest the rest of my passive points in to be a little tankier?

[hard palm]

intelligence

ward generation

also if you aren't tanky enough probs don't have everything you need

or go into sorceror and pick up int there

[gusty token]

Mental fortitude into Prodigy?

[hard palm]

oh yeah i always max those first in hc

mandatory

fortitude is really strong

prodigy needs a little more investment but should be worth it too

[outer pagoda]

just wondering cuz it says serpents instead of serpent, but for some reason i cant find any info about multiple serpents

[gusty token]

what do you mean by fortitude

[hard palm]

i can check for you

mental fortitude

[gusty token]

oh lol

stupid moment for me

[hard palm]

limited to one

[outer pagoda]

very confusing wording in tooltip then

[wary patio]

so is there a way to tell what lvl i am?

[outer pagoda]

press c

top left

[wary patio]

thanks

[peak shard]

blue circles just indicate the roll?

[stone gust]

yea

[misty sonnet]

Is there a better one hand melee weapon than nagasa scymitar for warpath voidknight? (in terms of dps)

[wary patio]

what does +bow fire dmg mean?

[green tendon]

You do more fire damage with bows.

[primal furnace]

hey, what class is nice for beginner?

[hollow socket]

The shadow cleaver one-handed axe has way, way more added damage. I'd personally opt for that, I think.

[misty sonnet]

I also hoped that the shadow cleaver would outclass the nagasa scymitar, but the sword just has so much attack speed and increased damage over time that I can't find the right combinations of affixes for the cleaver to do more damage

[hollow socket]

Ah, must be due to the 60% damage scaling.

If your build revolves around DoT you probably can't make good use of a Katana. What DoT do you use?

[misty sonnet]

I'm basically stacking time rot for warpath to do more damage and abyssal decay from abyssal echos

[hard palm]

why 1h?

[misty sonnet]

I like being a little more tanky so I use 1h and shield

[hollow socket]

Hmm, not sure if an argent sceptre would be any good. They're slow.

[hard palm]

seems just worse than nagasa

i'd think some daggers are okay

you give up some sentinel nodes but let's you scale crit easier

and they have nice implicits

60% poison -> time rot etc

[snow spruce]

Added spell damage will likely out scale any DoT implicits. Time rot has a 12 stack limit, Abyssal Echoes is a spell that has 305% added spell damage effectiveness.

[hard palm]

is that a typo

i think it's 350%

[snow spruce]

It might be, but I'm just going off what I see.

[misty sonnet]

Woah, that's actually a great point. I was just looking at added melee (void) damage and completely forgot about spell damage!

thanks a lot

[hard palm]

it scales with vitality too though

can try to use that for the flat damage portion

[modest dust]

is mana regen a % of maximum mana?

[snow spruce]

No, every character has a base mana regen of 8 currently.

[modest dust]

ah ok thanks

[wary patio]

How do people deal with being surrounded and just attacked quickly? I noticed on rogue its easy i just daah oit bit for other characters it seems harder during the story

[hollow socket]

I lunge to a ranged enemy that's away from the group. If you have a more instant spell like transplant, you can aim behind obstacles even.

[wary patio]

I see

Because i noticed when i get to the enemies that do void dmg and they look horrible in the story thats what mostly happens and is torture

[gusty token]

how valuable is 'cleans all ailments on potion use'

I've got a kind of better version of one of my belts, but it gives more ward and no cleansing. trying to decide whether to craft it or stick with what I have

[hard palm]

it's good on boss fights

chill or slow can get you killed

and they don't apply that often there

little more situational in monoliths because usually it's either you're getting a bunch applied constantly (so you'd need temp immunity) or none at all

[gusty token]

hmm

so it might be good to have both belts and change as needed

[stiff stone]

How big is 8.3c?

[frigid orbit]

2.X gb for me

[stiff stone]

Rip my life

[wary patio]

Does this patch notes change the guides?

[cunning girder]

hey, anyone having trouble logging in on 0.8.3c?

just downloaded it and can't get past the first screen (game freezes and won't load profile or anything)

wondering if it's a common issue or I'm just B L E S S E D

IT LOADED pls ignore

decided to let it rest and after 8ish minutes it loaded - if it happens to anyone out there

[warm dust]

is "increased damage taken" on enemies additive or multiplicative with increases to my damage?

[brittle atlas]

it's a separate modifier and therefore effectively multiplicative (but additive with other sources of increased damage taken for enemies)

[warm dust]

ty

[quiet hinge]

Hey folks I stopped on one of my characters at mono lvl 75. Just came back for the new update. Do I need to complete chapter 9 to get to the Age of Winter mono?

[brittle atlas]

no

[quiet hinge]

Hell yeah. Thx dude!

[hollow narwhal]

hello there, I would like to stream LE, do you guy think it may be useful ?

[quiet hinge]

Also, what does mono stability do? Was introduced after I stopped playin for a bit. Googling didn’t help.

[knotty hinge]

Completing echoes gives you stability which is used to complete the timeline quests

The quests are located on the left when looking at the echo web

[quiet hinge]

Not at my pc atm. Is there like a stability req for each boss?

[brittle atlas]

yes

each timeline has three quest echoes that requires 3 different stability thresholds

[quiet hinge]

Ah I see

[brittle atlas]

killing the boss of the third echo then consumes that stability

so like in Empowered Stolen Lance, you need 800 stability to go fight Argentus

killing Argentus then drains 800 stability

[quiet hinge]

Is it more or less grindy than it was when rogue dropped? If any of you guys were here for that

[brittle atlas]

uh

[knotty hinge]

less

[brittle atlas]

less

by a fair bit imo

[quiet hinge]

Cool

[knotty hinge]

I hated the old system so much

[quiet hinge]

Ya

[knotty hinge]

66% chance to spawn a quest echo

[quiet hinge]

Main reason why I stopped playin tbh. Got stale pretty fast

[knotty hinge]

then you die because you're new and don't know the fight and get set back 4 echoes before you can even have a chance at another quest echo

[quiet hinge]

Oh it doesn’t set you back now if you die?

[knotty hinge]

you lose stability if you fail the quest echo but it typically requires just 1 more to get back up

[quiet hinge]

Gotcha

[knotty hinge]

sometimes it won't require you to run another echo. depends on your stability as you can store twice the amount of required stability for the boss.

[quiet hinge]

I honestly can’t believe they kept those destroy the spire quest objs in

If you’ve already got your build setup and are just blasting, they’re cool. But if you’re working through stuff like adjusting to a build or keybinds or whatever. They’re just obnoxious imo

[green spindle]

Lol I feel you. Some of the spire really hurts if you don’t move out of the way. There was one time I levelled during echo and was thinking about where to put my points and then got killed. Damn it was unique drop echo too.

But I don’t hate these quests. So either they keep them, or remove them, I am fine with it.

[quiet hinge]

Ya they’re fine when you already runnin monos fluidly. But not when you’re still working through stuff. Couldn’t imagine tryin to run them and having to do inventory management on a controller. They’re just bad imo

[brittle atlas]

Eh, echoes are short enough that I don't see a big issue with it

like you can probably wait a minute or two to allocate points or whatever

[wary patio]

for primasit does he have a build that isnt around summons?

[brittle atlas]

earthquake, swipe, werebear, serpent strike, cold/phys spell shaman

[wary patio]

ah so shaman

[brittle atlas]

only the last one would be shaman

the first four I listed would be BM or Druid

[wary patio]

i see

[last current]

Does damage over time cancel out "Deadly if not damaged recently" or is that only cancelled by direct hits?

[zealous blaze]

Why can't I search this discord?

[brittle atlas]

should be able to?

I search it pretty regularly to find old stuff from devs/myself

[stone granite]

It should, it says damage not hits.

[wary patio]

can iask here if uniques good?

[brittle atlas]

sure

Most of the time the answer will be "no, except for <niche application>"

or "yes, until you get a better rare"

[frosty mirage]

Yupp, the most popular uniques tend to be defensive uniques, there are some really good offensive ones as well

[wary patio]

how about these two?

i see ok

[brittle atlas]

Both good leveling items

can help make leveling new characters faster

[wary patio]

i see ok cool

how do iknow what chapter im at?

[brittle atlas]

uh

no idea other than when it pops up when you first start a chapter

[wary patio]

oh rip

i wanna know when i hit chapter 4 to pick my ascendancy

[brittle atlas]

around level 25 or so

you can't miss it

[wary patio]

i see ok

thank you arborus

[toxic canyon]

hit escape

you can see the current chapter there

[timber temple]

if i understand this correctly if i unspec a skill point it lowers the level of the skill and i would have to re-level it up brfore i can spend that point again?

[knotty hinge]

Yes.

[timber temple]

i have not noticed any but do time rifts the the campaign give any unique rewords that makes them forth going through?

[brittle atlas]

I think one or two are tied to idol unlocks and the one has a unique relic in it

[errant pecan]

Anyone know exactly how conversion works for javelin? Do all types of flat damage melee damage get converted to lightning? What about % melee damage? The tooltip doesn't really specify
