It is huge, and the higher your threshold the better. If you have a threshold of 100, endurance activates when you reach 100hp, if you have 700, then it activates at 700hp.

#

This is all from the top of my head btw I’m not at the pc

jovial leaf
#

I know how endurance working. Interesting only mechanic increase or more damage.

static glacier
#

well you only have to fill the gap between 33% and 20% hp ... your treshold is 20% baseline

#

Endurance has a cap of 60% less damage taken (multiplicative with other modifiers), while Endurance Threshold does not have a cap.

acoustic thicket
#

I’m running harvest and having one hell of a good time

static glacier
#

and MORE

jovial leaf
#

What about my question? When i on low health i have increase dmg or more dmg? How much % increase/more?

static glacier
#

MORE

#

Deal more damage equal to your percent missing health and take less damage equal to half your percent missing health.

#

so if you are at 33% life you deal 66% more and take 33% less

jovial leaf
#

What is it? Passive lich or mechanic death seal? I not see.

static glacier
#

deathseal base mechanic

jovial leaf
#

Massive.

#

Maybe next time i try lich.

static glacier
#

harvest is fun true LL with hit damage and its also cool bleed based with exa/steps and a dead man on your shield 😄

jovial leaf
#

I play on LL primalist. Swipe is trash skill, but in general gameplay very fun to play.

#

I hope dev's give more very fun and powerfull melee skills for primalist in future.

#

Upheavel. I liked it very much.

#

Many options and possibilties and good damage, built in tree penetration.

sonic kraken
#

If I avoid a crit does that mean I don't get hit?

brittle atlas
#

No, it means it becomes a normal hit

random badger
#

Since all enemies penetrate 75% resistances, is resistance below 75% completely meaningless?

dense root
#

no

brave ibex
#

Resistances can go negative

ruby violet
#

Hey I gotta a question but am unsure where to put it. Main class is druid, i have also put 25 points in the shaman tree, but it only displays 22 on the count is this how it suppose to be or is it a bug?

ocean onyx
#

for Frenzy totem: does the global flat damage from the Grounded node affect minions?

static glacier
ruby violet
#

Is there a way to get it go to normal or am I stuck with that number?

haughty marsh
#

Is there currently an issue with logins, or just not working for me? I just got the game so first time trying to play but I'm just stuck at "Entering eterra" - thanks in advance, gonna try rebooting and launching again

static glacier
#

Its only a display bug

#

all points you use "work" just the number is wrong

ruby violet
#

Ah oke thx for the answer.

static glacier
#

sidenote: you can not reach the part "above 25 points"

ruby violet
#

Yeah, that also includes the skills behind the lock right?

static glacier
#

yes

#

those a mastery exclusive

stark charm
#

is it just me or is the game even more laggy after the last patch?

static glacier
#

laggy? its offline there cant be anything laggy - do you get fps drops?

stark charm
#

yea, bad ones

#

seems like every patch makes it worse to be honest

solar juniper
#

Yes

stark charm
#

btw, offline games cant be laggy? 😄

solar juniper
#

Cpu now starts heating up by staying afk in ends of time

#

For me

stark charm
#

end of time standing still is 7% cpu for me but 97% gpu 😄 and 5 gigs of ram

#

I dont really care for the ram but the fps is wild ride

solar juniper
#

Yeah, especially with increasing mob density

stark charm
#

I started playing few weeks ago and didnt really notice any performace issues on my system

#

few patches "fixed" that 😄

merry aspen
#

to target farm a unique all i gotta do is run the timeline and then go for unique drop echos, right?

random dock
merry aspen
#

i know which timeline to go for. i need to know if its the echos and or/general drops i should be looking out for

random dock
#

echo exclusive reward nodes

shy roost
#

Is there an exp penalty for being underlvled in a zone? IE I'm lvl 45 in zone lvl 51. Am I losing exp because of this?

frosty mirage
#

As well as the time skip aspect of the new dungeon 😊

shy roost
#

Oh so you bumrush to EoT. I need to learn about the new dungeon thing. That's how you craft with legendary potential I think

frosty mirage
#

It’s how you craft legendaries correct, really most go back eventually to get the passive and idol slots that are only available via the campaign

#

The new dungeon is just convenient as you can still get all of the passive point and idol slot rewards even with the skip in content

shy roost
#

_> Well I should have considered that when lvling a new char lol

daring aurora
#

when a Beastmaster passive mentions Scorpion, does that include baby scorpions? or only the big companion on e?

obtuse forge
#

Is there any good resource similar to Poe.Ninja for "Meta" builds?

sick yacht

raw fern
spare steppe
#

any ideas what might be causing these white swirls on kill?

#

i can't for the life of me figure out what item or skill is doing it

steel merlin
#

glacier with the left side of the tree?

spare steppe
#

no glacier. here's my active skills

finite mesa
#

It's in the sorc passives

spare steppe
#

hmm not seeing it

finite mesa
#

Oh wait no it's something else

obtuse forge
#

Frozen Ire?

finite mesa
#

It's the teleport clones

#

They cast various skills

spare steppe
#

ohhhh

#

thanks

finite mesa
#

I had to go test it

spare steppe
#

i was just about to say that it seems to only happen after i've teleported

latent shale
#

I bought through Nexus, supporting a streamer, activated through Steam and made a epoch account, but I cannot log into the game, only the website. Website accounts only shows "BUY NOW", am I missing something?

latent shale
#

LE-13 I believe, letting it try to login in game atm

latent shale
#

Yep, opening a ticket, thanks for the help!

reef leaf
#

Can it have Legendary Potential or not?

amber notch
#

yes

reef leaf
#

It can have all the way to 4?

#

I mean, I don't have to do empowered timeline to get it with 4 Legendary Potential?

amber notch
#

Yeah

reef leaf
#

Okay, Ty

amber notch
#

Empowered probably has a higher chance though

elfin crest
#

should I be trying to unlock all the monos first or getting corruption high on the first one?

sick yacht
#

unlock all monos, dont worry about corruption til empowered monos

merry aspen
#

am i reading LE tools right that kermode's cage cant drop with LP?

brave ibex
#

No, it can have LP. The only items that can't are quest related

sly fable
#

Hey everybody. A Unique dropped in Temporal Sanctum but I can't see a tooltip or pick the item up. My loot filter doesn't filter uniques, and disabling the loot filter doesn't do anything

#

neither does switching time zones

#

have people experienced this?

dense root
#

press z

sly fable
#

when the hell did I accidentally press z.

#

hah

#

I didn't realize that was a thing, gonna unbind that real quick

#

ty!

stark charm
#

mobs mid-air dont seem to take damage, is that intended?

obtuse forge
#

Can an item upgraded with Rune of Ascendance have Legendary Potential?

brave ibex
#

Yes

fierce kraken
rugged adder
#

So...there is still no button to unlearn all your passives at once?

dense root
#

there is not

#

but would that even work?

#

like is it also unspecializing every skill?

rugged adder
#

you can manually remove all of your points and it won't unspecialize skills

#

you just can't use them until you put the points back

torn stone
#

Does "Stormcarved Testament, Unique Stone Tablet" work if you're not a Shaman/not normally able to cast Storm Totems? If so, would it work with the Boardman set?

dusky kite
dusky kite
dusky kite
#

Yeah should work

vernal burrow
#

do youu have to play through the story all the way and at what point can you stop and do the shards of the worlds or whaetver its called

#

also how do you bring out the legendary out of a unquie again

dusky kite
dusky kite
vernal burrow
#

thats not what i mean

#

i mean if it has legendary potentiial how do i use ity

dusky kite
#

Clear the new dungeon, there is a special forge at the end. Merge your unique with LP with a matching type exalted.

random badger
#

Can adding stats to a legendary via the eternity cache increase the level requirement for it?

brave ibex
#

Yes

random badger
#

Cheers, good to know

daring aurora
#

does the "increase reflect per attunement" affect all flat reflects, even Thorn Shields, or only on this weapon?

granite bone
#

Hi guys,
Icicle spell from bow scales with increase bow damage?
Thanks

finite mesa
#

No it doesn’t have the bow tag

arctic anvil
finite mesa
#

That’s why you need to use the idols that say “increased damage while wielding a bow”

arctic anvil
#

I feel like I should do something with that item

#

but I dunno

finite mesa
#

And use the cold shred blessing

granite bone
#

Thanks Nero😁

arctic anvil
#

So does clearing monoliths matter that much for the rewards at the end?

random dock
wary patio
#

did the game get mp?

dense root
#

not yet

wary patio
#

ok thx

#

did rebuke get fixed?

brittle atlas
#

LE Tools and Tunklabs has that info for a lot of things

vernal burrow
#

ah how do i get into the new dungeon for the legendary, also, can damage numbers be miss leading i feel like i do a ton more of damage than my other build

copper fable
#

yes hitting 10 times a second for 2k looks worse then hitting for 20k once every 6 seconds, but the 10 hits build has more dps

vernal burrow
#

i have similar attacks per sec

#

its flame reave vs the ice attack

#

one said 11k dps

#

but with flame reave i one shot everything

#

techically less dps

dense root
#

tooltip dps is bad

vernal burrow
#

yeah

dense root
#

there's just a lot it can't take into account

vernal burrow
#

i mean techically

#

each cast is two atacks

#

so maybe im dealing double my flame reave bc the back and forth hit

coral slate
#

anyone had an issue where your tp at the end of an echo brings you to the end of time instead of the rewards room? I first thought that maybe I tp'd too early, but this time i clicked the button and it happened

wary patio
#

whats forging potential

acoustic thicket
#

forging potential is used to forge items

#

forging is just using affix shards, glyphs and runes to improve and change items

#

press F to bring up the forging interface

#

when you perform a crafting item on an action, it uses up an amount of forging potential

#

more forging potential = more crafts

#

when it reaches 0 potential = can't craft on it anymore

wary patio
#

i see

acoustic thicket
#

crafting is a pretty important part of the game so i'd look into it

#

you can break items to obtain the shards in them

#

and then put those on other items

vernal burrow
#

can this game run on potatoes my friends have bad pcs

brittle atlas
#

how bad is "bad"

vernal burrow
#

they can run wow and league most the time

brittle atlas
#

like hardware-wise

#

I play on an i5 and 1060 and generally don't have problems with game performance.

vernal burrow
#

whats the biggest game you can play

brittle atlas
#

I mean, I've played Cyberpunk, New World, Destiny 2, Biomutant, Nier, Outriders, etc. on this setup. All sorts of other stuff

vernal burrow
#

yeah no

#

they could never run those games

brittle atlas
#

They're probably going to have a bad time with most games then

vernal burrow
#

they do

#

im trying to see if they could run this one

brittle atlas
#

at a baseline, probably? but they'd definitely see some fps drops, long load times, etc.

vernal burrow
#

even on lowest

brittle atlas
#

probably?

#

the game is pretty cpu heavy with combat calculations

vernal burrow
#

tbf

#

when i trigger 15 shadows my game lags a bit

iron thistle
#

Is it just me or does fighting Orobyss make it take extra long to farm back up to the boss fight for a Monolith? It gives a lot of up front stability, but it neuters the stability gain per echo on the reruns.

brittle atlas
#

in the short term yes

#

but corruption has a multiplier to stability gained

#

I believe it caps out at some point, but eventually you can get enough stability for the boss in 7-10 echoes

#

here's a video from 082, they've made the corruption curve a bit steeper now, so it should be even higher at similar corruption levels now

sly fable
#

Does corruption reset when the boss is killed?

#

Also, can anyone tell me how the mage spell disintegrate interacts with the mage passive "preparation", which increases the damage of your next spell cast?

brittle atlas
#

no, corruption only changes when you kill orobyss, going up on down based on your distance from the center of the timeline map

brittle atlas
sly fable
#

I was under that impression, but the buff gets consumed, reappears, and then is consumed again as you continue to hold the channel

#

so I'm not sure

#

easy test at the dummy, I guess

brittle atlas
#

yeah, I don't see the buff get consumed again

#

are you triggering other spells during disintegrate?

sly fable
#

no

#

I have the buff, lose the buff, get the buff, and lose it again, all during a single channel

#

my build strongly relies on me not triggering anything

brittle atlas
#

hmmmm

#

what's your disintegrate tree look like?

#

what are your other skills?

sly fable
#

I will say that I notice a significant decrease in damage when I START the channel without the buff, so I think the idea of it affecting the entire channel is correct

brittle atlas
#

yeah, it impacting the entire channel is a sure thing

#

am on my mage testing it too

#

just trying to figure out what would be making you lose the buff icon during the channel

sly fable
#

Ok, well, that time the damage without the buff was quite high

#

Ah, I think I figured it out

#

let me test again

#

I'm getting fire aura from ignivar's

brittle atlas
#

ah yeah

#

if you're getting fire auras those are probably consuming the buff

sly fable
#

yep

#

it ticks up when the buff goes away

#

but still, I'm not noticing a large damage change when I start the channel with or without the buff, consistently

#

~325k max tick damage either way

brittle atlas
#

if you're using ignivar it's possible that you get the first flame aura stack immediately and it consumes the buff before your channel starts?

sly fable
#

Let me remove to test

brittle atlas
#

yeah, that does seem to be what happens

sly fable
#

nah, looks about the same

#

38k max stack either way

#

actually without buff I hit a higher peak

brittle atlas
#

I'm testing almost entirely naked, and do less damage with ignivar's on because it seems to consume the buff

#

but obviously do a lot more if I stutter my channel to get the buff on disintegrate during ignivar's cooldown

sly fable
#

That's not what's happening for me

#

without ignivar's, I get similar damage with or without the buff when I start the channel

#

~40k either way

sly fable
#

yeah, pretty convincing. Mine just doens't seem to do that

#

I didn't remove my idols

#

and I have a full passive tree

#

but I'm still not sure what the deal is on my end. I get the same damage either way =\

obtuse forge
#

So I just got empowered timelines -- I want to farm a Ribbon of Blood w/ legendary potential -- so I just spam first timeline and push corruption as high as I can, or?

brittle atlas
#

yeah basically

sly fable
#

Thanks Arborus, you've been a big help! Really appreciate your time

brittle atlas
#

you probably don't want to push corruption too high though, you want to be able to kill things and the boss fast

#

no problem

obtuse forge
#

Once you're in empowerd, timeline is just to target blessings/specific types of loot?

brittle atlas
#

yep

#

each timeline has specific blessings, specific unique/set reward nodes for different item types, and then the boss loot

#

I'd say you probably want to get your blessings handled before focusing on any one farm

#

you'll probably get to 200-300 ish corruption along the way with that unless you have really good RNG

brittle atlas
sly fable
#

Which fucking blows, by the way. The node is totally useless to me if it isn't affecting my main ability. But I can't reliably tell if it's working or not

#

I am not using ignivar's for the fire aura 😛

obtuse forge
#

Well, first epowered echo complete, seems doable

sly fable
#

which is pretty strange, because the spell doesn't hit, most of my stuff means it can't shock them

#

Now I feel like I have no idea what's going on

brittle atlas
#

can you upload your character to the le tools planner?

sly fable
#

is there a way to automate that?

brittle atlas
#

yeah, there's an up arrow on the left side that lets you load it from the save file

sly fable
#

ty ty

#

finally got it

#

Note, I got like 5 stacks of shock in the first couple seconds

#

and as many as 4 stacks of slow

brittle atlas
#

hmm yeah, have copied your passives and disintegrate tree and playing around with it the only thing I can get to happen is ignivar's fire aura eating the buff

#

nothing else seems to be interfering with it

#

and there's definitely still a large damage difference with and without the buff

obtuse forge
#

Could there be some echo mod w/ slow or shock on hit from mobs messing with it?

sly fable
#

Disintegrate doesn't hit, so none of that should interfere with it

sly fable
brittle atlas
#

I'd assume just RNG where you have less than 100% for each in the tree?

#

I assume if you're hitting with both beams they each roll the chance separately

#

so you could get a hot streak that results in a lot of stacks

obtuse forge
#

So when should I consider trying Arena? Not sure what rewards are tied to it or is it just ladder? Guessing Monos are much more worth my time?

brittle atlas
#

arena is basically only the ladder

#

the loot is definitely worse than monos

sly fable
brittle atlas
#

yeah, I assume it's just a hot streak with both beams hitting the dummy at the same time

#

pretty sure each time you here the sound is it "ticking" so to speak

#

and it rolling ailment chance on each tick

sly fable
#

Also, thinks like "Ceraunomancer" say "shock chance with lightning skills", but doesn't mention hitting

#

is it possible that any other mods like that are affecting my shock chance?

brittle atlas
#

shock is innately an "on hit" thing

#

disintegrate's tree just has its own chance to shock each tick in it

#

which you have 3 points in

sly fable
#

Yeah, I think you're right about the RNG thing

#

in some instances I seem to get a lot of stacks really fast

#

but I'm not sure it's more than 2/s, which should be the max

#

it says "each second", not "each tick"

#

but maybe 20%/s is coded like 10%/s per half second, instead, so with good RNG you can get a bunch

#

even thought the statistics of that isn't quite right

brittle atlas
#

the disintegrate nodes don't specific each second do they?

#

ah, the statlines do

#

not the description

#

yeah, it definitely seems to apply more than once per second

#

and is obviously even faster with two beams

sly fable
#

Yeah, it seems a bit too fast, for sure

#

especially in that clip I linked

#

You can see it go from 4 to 9 REALLY quickly

#

maybe less than a second

obtuse forge
#

SO corruption 100 Abom took ~40 seconds after killing soul vessels. Proly okay dmg for just getting into empowered?

#

Also, how to unlock the 5th option here? Just higher corruption?

brittle atlas
#

200 corruption

#

and yeah 40 seconds isn't too bad for just getting into empowered

obtuse forge
#

too used to poe and diablo, so 40s feels so slow but videos seem to say its fine, so yeah 😛

Bought the game on steam, tried to play, stuck at entering eterra, restart doesnt work and trying the direct exe with or without admin doesn't work either, any ideas?

#

make sure the internet connection isn’t being blocked by the firewall maybe?

#

and give it a while. sometimes i get like 30 second logins

i've left it for 20 minutes at this point, ill check the firewall

#

already allowed

crystal niche
#

will the hits from maelstrom apply 'on hit' affects? it's tagged as damage over time and I'm a little confused

#

also will it leech if I have something like this equipped

vapid aspen
#

Maelstrom creates a DoT zone around you.

#

If you have the nodes that cast lightning, those casts of lightning are hits.

#

However, there are sources of leech that do not specify on hit leech

#

For example, if your maelstrom is dealing cold damage and you have this weapon equipped you will leech 1% of it.

crystal niche
#

alright cool, I figured so but wanted to make sure

#

time to hunt down a good cold damage leech unique

vapid aspen
#

Don't use this spear for maelstrom XD

#

Also doesn't need to specify a type. as long as it doesn't say "on hit" you are good

#

On hit, with hits, etc.

fathom cave
#

does leverage momentum and crushing darkness works together?

flint moon
#

Is there any trick to the boss of the Age of Winter timeline? I tried it a couple of times but I cannot deal with the charge attack where the boss runs from one end of the arena to the other and leaves you in a deadly vortex. Even with full potions in the bag, I end up dying to it.

brittle atlas
#

cold resist and following him mostly

#

what class are you?

flint moon
#

I have maxed cold resistance and try to follow him tightly, but I still end up being left in the cold when he charges away. Maybe my HP is the problem, think I have only 1.3k to 1.8k, fire minion Acolyte (don't remember the mastery name right now)

brittle atlas
#

1.3-1.8k should be fine

#

hmm

#

have you stacked up some damage mods on him?

#

what other defenses do you have?

#

60% endurance? ward from volatile zombies?

flint moon
#

At first, yes, haha, but even with no modifiers related to damage and speed, his vortex still hits me for maybe 300 to 500 damage per hit.
Endurance is default, I think, I use the boots that give you Ward on movement stop based on your mana, get ~250 Ward from that

brittle atlas
#

do you have boots with movement speed such that you've got ~30% on your sheet?

#

ah ok, the unique should have a decent amount on it if I recall correctly

#

highly recommend getting 60% endurance asap

#

via engraved gauntlet base and endurance % on rings

#

one of the strongest defensive layers for how little investment it takes to cap

flint moon
#

Thanks for the advice, going to change my gear!

brittle atlas
#

otherwise yeah, I'd say look into volatile zombie, it's one of the few good ways necro has to sustain an ehp pool

#

since you don't have any leech

#

also means you're scaling some defense off your int and minion life

acoustic thicket
pure plover
#

Is it possible for a solo character to be transfered into regular?

frosty mirage
#

Just be sure to have anything you absolutely want to take in your inventory when doing so

#

Since stashes are separate

pure plover
#

so the runes/shards are lost?

frosty mirage
#

Correct

static glacier

And shatter those later

thanks for the replies

heavy yacht
#

i want the Salt the Wound gloves. do i just keep playing ever growing corruption in Ending the Storm and hope?

brave ibex
#

Yup, just keep grinding and pray. They're on the rarer end of uniques unfortunately

heavy yacht
#

(and never do the quests that reset it)

#

and is it bosses or any monster?

brittle atlas
#

the only timeline specific thing for it is the unique/set glove reward nodes

#

otherwise it's just a global drop like anything else

heavy yacht

does anyone run dungeons if you dont have legendaries to craft?

You can run the first two floors of the 100 dungeon to farm exalted items/glyphs

#

Oh, thanks!

#

Dot's lich more powerful?

brittle atlas
#

dots is faster for farming monoliths in my experience, whereas crit is better for arena

#

but they're not that far off from each other either way

heavy yacht
#

when farming for items do you exit echos when the portal is available or full clear?

brittle atlas
#

as soon as objective is done

heavy yacht
#

as so to move deeper into the echo map right, to get more corruption?

stark dirge
#

there are something to calculate skill DPS when changing weapons ? like POB

brittle atlas
#

just to be efficient. think of each enemy you kill as pulling a slot machine lever. If you can pull the lever and complete an objective for extra loot at the same time, why not?

heavy yacht
#

yeah i'd love a path of building for LE !

brittle atlas
#

there's no reason to keep killing enemies without an objective to "multi-task" on basically

So if I'm specifically looking for exalted 2h swords since weapon would be my biggest upgrade rn --- monos or dungeon spam?

brittle atlas
#

monos probably?

#

unless the dungeon has its base modifier as weapons

earnest scaffold
#

Does this mean i literally take more dmg from crits? why would there be an affix that negative?

brittle atlas
#

I think the wording is just wrong, it's reduced bonus damage taken from crits

can i use any one handed exalt to upgrade a one handed Axe unique?

It just has to be the same kind of item so yeah

so a one handed dagger exalt would work for the axe?

If an aftershock hits several monsters at once, does it summon more boulders?

stray cipher
#

if i want to farm for a specific boss drop should i try to add as much corruption as possible for better rewards?

dense root
#

corruption increases the stability you get from echoes i think

#

which is already valuable on its own since more stability means fewer echoes per boss

stray cipher

thanks ill make sure to increase it then

What is the best way to increase base critical strike chance for spell if the tree itself doesn't help?

#

off hand catalyst, but beside that?

brittle atlas
#

but at endgame, no not really

fading jackal
#

Do "increased x drop rate" blessings affect timeline boss drops?

balmy current
#

Not the boss-specific uniques no

#

should affect their other drops though

fading jackal
#

what if i'm looking for a set item like in the stolen lance?

#

does that count toward being a boss specific unique or does the fact it's a set item mean i can take the relic drop rate blessing and be more likely to get the set relic from that boss?

#

i found an answer from a few months ago saying it shouldn't, but unsure if patches have changed that

brittle atlas
#

it shouldn't

#

as far as I know blessings have no impact on boss drop rates

void granite
#

Any builds that use Void + Spell damage?

So all of the stat categories under a skill apply a multiplicative bonus on the skill?

#

Is there a formula anywhere for armor/damage etc calculations?

copper fable
#

Does the berserker node in primalist work like endurance, in that it lowers any damage that goes past the low life threshold? So if I have 1k life and get hit for 1k, everything under the 35% threshold immediately gets reduced?

vapid aspen
#

Skill has its base damage, and an added damage effectiveness

#

all sources of added damage that are able to apply to the skill are added up and multiplied by effectiveness

#

then added to the base damage

#

then it goes through all your increased damage effects and totals (adds) all the ones applicable to the skill

#

and adds 100% for base

#

then multiplies by that

#

Then all relevant more multipliers are applied individually

#

that gets your total outgoing damage

#

From there it goes to the enemy where any reductions are applied

How long is the game in its current state for a single character non speed run ?

brittle atlas
#

depends on a lot of factors

#

like casually leveling a new character is probably 4-5 hours

#

first playthrough is probably gonna be way longer

hearty ginkgo
#

ok thanks for the info

brittle atlas
#

that's to finish the campaign

#

endgame is basically as long as you still have goals

#

hundreds of hours per character or more

#

leveling to 100 is probably 40-50 hours

ok i might pick it up . it looks great

midnight timber

#

can someone tl:dr; me on when a build should be thinking about using the lowlife chest and other uniques?

finite mesa
#

When you can get some kinda benefit from constantly being on low life

#

Like the new primalist leap slam skill has a node where you always crit with it while on low life

#

You can spec bear's maul to use the leap slam tree's benefits, so your bear maul can always crit

if you complete temporal sanctum on an alt, how do you skip the quests/acts? Do you get all the quest passives/idol slots?

finite mesa

You can get all of those by the time you unlock the sanctum

#

And it’s level 55 at the minimum I think

#

So basically you can just skip lagon and majasa

i dont think so, I started sanctum at 30 something

i only had to go to the desert town

question can early game items be usable at later time or do they have a set level when drop so they roll worse?

generally not, they tend to have lower tiers so crafting is out of the question

Damn. Any suggestions for a mob that doesn't die easily but also doesn't kill me easily that I could use as a target dummy? I don't really care about dps. I just noticed that the AI of healing totems which can cast thorns (due to the Spiked Totems node) behaves build-breakingly nonsensical and I wanted to test out in a calm environment what the f**k they're doing.

Hey, what's a good Sorcerer build for empowered monos (200+ corruption) ? I've always used low-life elenova for max comfort. I switched to Lightning Meteors and the damage is better but i can't stand dying, too much glass cannon, is there anything in between?

humble ruin

I know that monsters killed during an echo increases the quantity of loot from the chest - but in case of those echoes that rewards rare/exlated items, do the monsters killed also increase the reward's quality? Or just the chest?

frosty mirage
#

Just the chest

I believe higher corruption increases the frequency of those rare echo rewards nodes on a timeline. Being further away from the center of the web does have this effect as well

fading jackal
#

has the bug with Aura of Decay absolutely destroying you if you take the Icarian Poison node been fixed?

brittle atlas
#

I don't think that's a bug?

#

it applies poisons to you faster and faster the longer you leave the aura on, so it will probably kill you relatively quick

#

since poisons scale non-linearly

vapid aspen
#

100% will kill you eventually too. Best you can do is try to cleanse them with that belt modifier

carmine palm

does throwing physical damage or throwing damage affects ailments applied by throw attacks? I would assume no since ailment damage is not throw damage

Does size of your companion affect anything like area of effect? Or is it purely visual?

should I be clearing every echo on each timeline? or just do enough to get the unique items and do the quests

midnight timber
#

just enough to do the quests, farm the nodes you want

farming for items is much better in empowered monos, due to the rarity bonus from corruption

frosty mirage

Good to know, probably not the way I’m going to go but it’s an option which is nice

i have died with the dungeon 4 times now i got close but not close enough. But is there something important at the end?

brittle atlas
#

the end of the dungeon lets you craft legendaries

#

each tier of dungeon (1 to 4) giving you the ability to make higher level ones

narrow valley
#

what is a legendary?

brittle atlas
#

a legendary is a unique and exalted item combined, basically

vapid aspen
#

Any specifc lich builds for pushing? LL ward work fine? thats what all my crazy gear is set up for.

brittle atlas
#

if you find a unique item with legendary potential you can use the eternity cache at the end of the dungeon to combine it with an exalted item, taking affixes from the exalted item equal to its legendary potential

narrow valley
#

ok i should get some useful uniques then

brittle atlas
#

spirit plague/drain life can definitely do echoes smoothly at 500+, but has really bad boss damage. crit soul feast is pretty much the same deal

vapid aspen
#

I figured lich would be generating ward back faster than my spellblade

brittle atlas
#

it's more that you can generate life WAY faster than ward via leech unless you're using something broken like zombies

vapid aspen
#

Maybe I'm underestimating nodes on it

brittle atlas
#

and death seal gives you like 65% more damage and 32.5% DR before any of the stuff in its tree even

#

and it gives you overleech

vapid aspen
#

I always found it tedious to use XD

#

I always used converted potions for generating ward back after taking a hit

#

hm. Well guess I'll just try stuff until it works.

Cooldown recovery does not affect the internal cooldown of item proc skills such as bhuldar's eq right ?

obtuse forge
#

I swear it feels like boss mobs have Endurance???

#

Oh wait... they're affected by monolith modifiers aren't they...

#

So he did - whoops.

jovial leaf
#

Similar effects not affect with cooldown recovery speed.

static glacier
amber notch
#

Pretty sure they have endurance

static glacier
#

if you do too much damage in too little time the game slows you down ... but you really need to do a lot of damage for that effect to become really strong

#

they have endurance if you give them

amber notch
#

Doesn't mono modifiers only give Endurance and not endurance threshold?

#

So they have a threshold by default (and probably the default endurance level)

obtuse forge
#

prolly a mix of both that made it looks weird. I gave Orobyss endurance and I'm playing a boss killer build getting ready for t4 dungeosn once I level more, so tons of single target.

static glacier
#

dont know if they have 20% base endurance ... possible ..

#

but 20% would be hard to notice

jovial leaf
#

Especially u see that on Argolos Blessed scorpion.

#

Several first attacks on him less ~99% dmg or something.

I deal him by default 7-8k dmg, but first attacks 20-30 dmg.

#

Same procs have all bosses.

jovial leaf

I knoe receipt craft fractured crown.

amber notch

We need gilded crown base with 2 prefixes - mana and damage dealt to mana, and summ all affixes 21+(exalted item). After apply rune of ascendance.

And result - fractured crown.

and if it's worth farming for them on a non-empowered monos

stark kernel
#

is there any way to see dmg tool tip for proc? e.g. "spreading flame"

vapid aspen
#

Spreading flames is an ailment not a proc

#

So the damage it deals is factored into the base tooltip

stark kernel
#

yeah but is there any way to see how much of total dps is the proc?

vapid aspen
#

Not atm in game afaik

stark kernel
#

ty

vapid aspen
#

you can check ailment base damage on tunklabs tho

static glacier
#

at least most of this stuff has a tooltip hidden somewhere on the skill tree

#

often on the next node after it -.-

stark kernel
#

are dots/ ailments affected by penetration?

vapid aspen
#

Yes as long as it's not penetration tied to a hit

#

(so yes for every source of pen I can think of)

static glacier
#

any form of "- enemy res" works fine for dots (x res shred, pen, shock) - only all armor stuff does nothing

#

a shame aliment builds miss a whole damage multiplier 😦

stark kernel
#

ty, by armor stuff you meal like pen on amulet?

vapid aspen
#

Armor shred specifically

#

also technically, ailments get two other multipliers (effect and duration) that hit builds don't

static glacier
#

pen on your amu is fine but you can use armor shred

stark kernel
#

ty

static glacier
#

while missing crit and crit multi 😛 still short of one hehe

vapid aspen
#

unless you count crit and crit multi as the same multiplier (which they are XD)

static glacier

we only count stuff as one if its additve - heresy!

quick question...if i skill warpath into the points were it spawns forged weapons... do those get benefits from forge strike skill points that add effects to forged weapons`?

sly fable
#

Where can I find a list of the bonuses to affixes per item slot?

#

As in, I know the bonuses on certain item slots are higher than others, and I believe it just multiplies the base affix numbers by a certain factor. Where can I find those factors?

#

I believe affix shards are sorted on last epoch tools based on rarity

#

hmm, it appears I was wrong. Sorry about that

#

You could work under the presumption that rarity is based on required level, and filter all that require a certain level! And that would be even easier to set up!

#

Although, I suppose not if you're filtering for items that contain those mods, unfortunately

sly fable
#

Yeah, it's a real shame to spend one of 2 affix shards just to clear an affix. And of course you can get bricked if you have 0

sly fable

Wouldn't it be awesome if you coiuld set up a filter to display any affix you have less than a certain number of shards of? That would be sick

It ignores the base only goes by type

obtuse forge
#

ward retention does help w/ max ward w/ a low life Exsanguinous build right? Or?

#

Life rolls probably still better?

vapid aspen
#

Both

#

Think of ward retention in those builds as another layer of increased health %

obtuse forge
#

cool, makes finding idols easier 😛

brittle atlas
#

you can generally get both

#

but % hp + flat hp idols are probably best

obtuse forge
#

health prolly better cause it'll give more ward recovery/generation tho?

#

where ward retention is just 1 shot buffer basically?

brittle atlas
#

yeah more or less

#

retention will increase your average and peak ward

vapid aspen
#

The math works out that the scaling is the same, but the value is different

#

there is an ideal ratio to match basically

brittle atlas
#

I'd lean towards whatever increases your generation rate, since that is generally the weakness of ward builds

vapid aspen
#

Retention also increases generation rate because decay is subtracted from it

brittle atlas
#

to an extent? I'm thinking like if you're in a situation where you're taking lots of incoming/consistent damage you want whatever gives you the most regeneration to a safe amount of ward

#

while your maximum ward is less important

#

so if you're in the like

#

1-2k ward range

#

decay isn't a huge concern

#

imo

vapid aspen
#

Right but they are the same thing

brittle atlas
#

I can't see how that's true. retention and decay is based off a % of your current ward, generation is based off a % of your hp. if your current ward is low your decay is low, but your generation is static

vapid aspen
#

Not to get too deep into the math, but e^x is it's own derivative which means the relationship between stable value and decay is the same as the relationship between generation and stable value

obtuse forge
#

What would generally be considered "high" ward in this game at end game?

vapid aspen
#

10k+ is a good chase goal

brittle atlas
#

I would want like 5k consistent probably

#

over 10k would be a lot more comfortable

vapid aspen
obtuse forge
#

okay yeah def need more then lol

brittle atlas
#

ye, ward retention doesn't seem to have a big impact on the regeneration over time until your retention values are super low

vapid aspen
#

Well, again. It's a ratio

brittle atlas
#

imo you care most about maxing out that regen over time peak

#

the ratio seems heavily in hps favor

vapid aspen
#

there is an ideal ratio between hp and retention that will give you both maximum rate and maximum peak

obtuse forge
#

for ward builds -- am I missing any major unique other than boots/chest?

vapid aspen
#

it's just a tricky ratio because relative values for affixes vary

brittle atlas
#

frostbite gloves for retention per cold res

#

strand of souls

#

the real strat is to play a ward build that isn't low life so you can ignore hp scaling entirely tbh

vapid aspen
#

Idk the amount of generation given by exsang with 2k life is crazy

brittle atlas
#

exsang is a net loss

#

unless I get a good 3-4lp one

obtuse forge
#

yeah, I'd prolly want gloves and strand to have LP to use em ideally, will be one hell of a farm though

#

minion build so ALL of my ward gen rn is just exsang, hmm

#

well, and shoes

are you a necro?

obtuse forge
#

ye

brittle atlas
#

use volatile zombies

#

it is all the ward generation you could possibly need

#

and doesn't require you to be low life

wise jetty
#

does anyone know if the affix "damage over time for minions" affect Frostbite stacks done by vines and totems? The skills don't have the damage over time tag but Frostbite does damage over time and I'm just not sure if it would affect the Frostbite damage.

brittle atlas
#

yes

#

it is a damage over time applied by a minion

marsh maple
#

low life is inferior to just having good ward generation, as being low lfie requires 2-3 unique items that dont necessarily help you in anyway way other than swapping your HP to ward, which even then isn't really that good as what arborus showcases you can simply just generate more ward instead @obtuse forge

brittle atlas
#

the tags only tell you what the skill's baseline stuff is, not what it is limited to

obtuse forge
#

hmm, yeah

vapid aspen
#

Only assuming you have access to a way to generate that much ward

wise jetty
#

Thanks Arborus. I'm going to try to make something out of this two-handed axe.

obtuse forge
#

but now looking to push so looking at options

marsh maple
#

I mean if you dont have access to a lot ward as a baseline, isn't really going to get you far to use 2 unique items that have no stats on them @vapid aspen

#

yeah id swap to HP regen + a shield eventually, it wll do wonders for you @obtuse forge

obtuse forge
#

was thinking w/ legendaries exsang + not having to roll life regen would be nice, but might be noob trap?

marsh maple
#

I mean you could have a titan heart with LP (which is probably easier to get)

#

that would be nuts

obtuse forge
#

no health regen tho?, would be on potions 100%?

marsh maple
#

you would have to swap over to the healing effectiveness package with AoD

#

but it would be well worth it

sick yacht
#

Is there somewhere to see the corruption requirement for drops? I'm apparently not intelligent enough to find it on last epoch tools

obtuse forge
#

AoD? Sorry new 😛

sick yacht
#

For example, I was told apathys maw requires 50

marsh maple
#

@obtuse forge AoD is a skill in Lich that lets you heal 8% of your missing HP per second that scales with healing effect

#

so it gets nuts as you get more HP

obtuse forge
#

oh aura of decay

#

ye

marsh maple
sick yacht
#

Thank you, I'll check again

amber jackal
#

how does the exalted item affects the legenday item crafted through the dungeon in terms of level requirements ?

dense root
#

i'm not sure we know exactly? we could probably sort it out using the legendary items in #👑┃item-showcase

brittle atlas
#

it matches the highest level req of the two afaik

dense root
#

oh that's pretty simple

amber jackal
#

35*

tropic socket
#

Hey I just bought the game and I have been trying to log in, but It keeps me stuck in logging screen for ever

dense root
tropic socket
brittle atlas
amber jackal
dense root
#

yes

#

the item level of non unique items is calculated based on the affixes

amber jackal
#

so t5 melee phys damage is level 35 ?

dense root
#

not quite

#

if i remember correct tier n affixes have a level requirement of (n*(n+1))/2 and then the actual formula for the items level requirement involves summing together affix level requirements and doing some other stuff

amber jackal
dense root
#

probably not?

#

i guess you could try to get really low tier affixes on them

#

but i think the legendary system is mostly intended for endgame items

obtuse forge
#

Can you get ward retention as a rare affix anywhere good?

brittle atlas
#

no

#

ward retention has no affixes on rare gear outside of some mage specific stuff iirc

#

generally just have to stack intelligence

#

or use the frostbite gloves and stack cold res

amber jackal
#

intelligence, each points gives 4%, so at t5 you can get 4*8 = 32

vapid aspen
#

Idols are the only place ward retention competes with %hp

marble geyser
#

@tropic socket Can I DM you to get some more info about that login problem?

elfin crest
#

can rune of ascendance give mono boss drops?

random dock
elfin crest
#

ah, okay

swift cairn
#

if I convert Spriggan to cold and get aspect of the viper poison effectiveness node would that turn into frostbite effectiveness while in spriggan? 🤔

# brittle atlas the ratio seems heavily in hps favor

Crunched out numbers on this, in all cases lich will favor hp% to ward retention, up to a point. There isn't actually any single ideal ratio because of all the mixed costs and non overlapping areas. The point you would stop with %hp is beyond what you can reach even with all t7 lp4 gear, but that is only the case for if you have zero non hp based ward generation. For an extremely well geared lich (4k+ hp, 650% ward retention) you would want to do an even split of hp% and ward retention on your idols if you are generating 1700 ward per second from outside the missing hp part. By the time you get to 2000 non missing hp ward generated you want no %hp idols and all ward retention.

Simpler way to explain it is to say that lich is especially %hp starved, other classes with better access to sources of %hp (Or more of a focus on other sources of generation like spellblade) would instead heavily prefer ward retention over hp%.

swift cairn

#

The good news though is that it 100% doesn't matter generation vs retention

#

You only need to care about the max stable ward

#

No matter how you achieve a stable ward of say 5k, when your ward is at 2.5k / 5k you will be regaining the exact same amount per second.

#

This ofc all assumes you have perfect idol rolls XD. If you don't have all perfect idols you should be using whichever has best rolls overall.

#

Is the level 80 timeline not released yet, or am I missing something.

brittle atlas
#

which one is level 80? fall of the empire?

prime willow
#

I just finished the 75 one, choosing the option that let her run away.

vapid aspen
#

Last thing to say is that non legendary strand of souls seems like a trap item for low life when compared to a belt with t5 hybrid hp and t5 %hp

prime willow
#

Hmmmm. Is my spectral golem a trap? Would I be better served with a Pyre Golem to go along with my Freezing Archmages and Archers?

tropic socket
#

will the game playerbase be restarted fresh on game release? or is it a released game now just in beta?

brittle atlas
#

current characters are all offline, there won't be a wipe for offline characters. If you want to play online multiplayer, then you'll be starting fresh when that is released.

tropic socket
#

thanks a lot

brittle atlas
prime willow
#

I'm going double golem to feed the abomination.

swift cairn
#

If say you have a unique with lightning res and an exalted also with Lightning res when you fuse them into a leggo to they add up?

dense root
#

they show separately on the item but they both count towards your stats

swift cairn
#

awesome, thank you

acoustic thicket
#

are builds made in 8.3e still viable in 8.4d?

sick yacht
#

pretty much all

acoustic thicket
#

sweet cheers crio

#

whats a flashy build that makes shit go boom and has sastisfying spells?

#

so far everything i have played seems rather dull spell wise

stark charm
#

I like death wave lich... It is lazy build though.... You just walk around and stuff dies

acoustic thicket
#

What sorts of attribute stacking builds are viable?

finite mesa
#

Icicle bowmage, for one

#

Str stacking with shattered lance set

brittle atlas
#

dexterity on bowmage, int on lich, str on spell werebear

#

attunement on spriggan form

#

vitality on void knight

acoustic thicket
#

Cool 🙂 Thank you

dusk gate
#

What would be the best blessings for the LL werebear using Bhuldar's wrath?

elfin crest
#

Any way to increase mono farm speed?

stone granite
pearl epoch
#

Can someone help me understand the new "x% Damage Bonus Taken from Critical Strikes"
It seems like it's a heavy nerf to that mod?

dense root
#

it's missing a word

pearl epoch
#

So it should read "less" then I take it?

dense root
#

yes

pearl epoch
#

Ie. 100% Less is the same effect as the previous mod's 50% roll

dense root
#

i think so?

vernal burrow
#

do you need to be a paladin to use aurelis unquie

#

it is a lighting sword that casts it when you mutilstrike

#

smite

stone granite
vernal burrow
#

but do you need to be a paladin

#

sub class

stone granite
#

you can use the unique, it just isn't useful to you if you aren't a sentinel

vernal burrow
#

like be a sentiel

#

but can i be a void knight

stone granite
#

of course

#

void knight gets those abilities too

vernal burrow
#

wait i dont think void knight gets smite

stone granite
#

yes it does

timber agate
#

it does

stone granite
#

in fact void knight converts it to void

timber agate
#

it use vitality instead of attunement for scaling

vernal burrow
#

wait

#

im confused

#

why does it say ssmite is a paladin only skill

timber agate
#

no? smite is a sentinel skill, but if you specifically want to use aurelis, paladin is the best choice, since paladin has lightning damage support on its passive

stone granite
#

It doesn't

#

The only paladin only skill is holy aura

vernal burrow
#

i trust but on selection it shows this

stone granite
#

Some skills require investment in the paladin passive tree

vernal burrow
#

wait

dense root
#

isn't judgement paladin only too?

stone granite
#

You can put points in any passive tree to unlock the skills

vernal burrow
#

you can invest in sub class perk points you arent invested in

#

this is

dense root
#

it's too far into the tree

vernal burrow
#

100 percent new for me

dense root
#

well you can invest in the left half of their tree

#

if you see the big vertical line halfway through the tree

#

you can invest points up to there

vernal burrow
#

ah

dense root
#

and then the other half is just for your actual mastery

acoustic thicket
#

^

elfin crest
#

is there a way to duplicate saves?

stone granite
#

Of course

#

copy the file and duplicate it

dense root
#

i mean saves are just data on your computer so yes

elfin crest
#

oh nice, they're not server side?

stone granite
#

no

#

the game is offline

elfin crest
#

the login made me think otherwise, but I guess it's just for verification

acoustic thicket
#

Yeah it's just DRM basically

vernal burrow
#

i mean idk is the paladin good its mostly just heals, and void knight seems fun

stone granite
#

Play whatever you think is fun to you

dense root
#

i had a good time with paladin in 8.3

stone granite
#

I play a bleed tank paladin and enjoy it

dense root
#

and it didn't really change much

acoustic thicket
#

Paladin has some fun stuff with smite with both the new lightning spear and aurelis

vernal burrow
#

ye

acoustic thicket
#

plus i'd argue paladin has slightly easier gearing requirements since so much of your stuff provides res

vernal burrow
#

fair

#

but void abilities like the back in time thing sounds fun

acoustic thicket
#

as someone who's doing VK Warpath
they can be fun, but also, you can use them on paladin too lol

#

just like how you can use smite on VK, paladin can use volatile reversal

vernal burrow
#

dude i swear the devs played leauge first katerina ult then garen spin to win

acoustic thicket
#

I mean, the spin to win is basically universal for the genre

dense root
#

i mean warpath is a pretty common arpg ability

vernal burrow
#

but

dense root
#

i'm not sure i can even think of one without it

vernal burrow
#

rouge shadow cascade can turn into kat ult

#

and thats what i play now

acoustic thicket
#

all good creators (in this case devs) steal ideas from other places

vernal burrow
#

exactly

#

i call it inspiration tho

#

im kinda happy its there

acoustic thicket
#

i mean yeah. it's all about execution

#

when done well it reminds you of something you've already done before but has it's own flair.

#

when done alright it just reminds you of something you've already done.

#

and when done poorly you just wish you were doing the thing that it reminds you of instead of doing this.

vernal burrow
#

i mean leeauge is a moba and this is an arpg i love just katerina ulting and all my zed clones also throw daggers its a ton of fun

#

why does it feel like paladin is missing a final skill it should have
