Discord 24 hours and your game is not playable. At what point do you admit that this is a playtest and full release was never ready. At what point does steam pull the game. This was predictable, over a million copys sold and you were not preparded. A team of 12 devs, obviously lacking experience. You could of hired full triple AAA Contractors for a fraction of revenue from this game. This looks and feels like a scummy move by an apparent respectable group of people. Turn the servers off, roll back your update and sit on this for 2-3 months. Or, quit. Do not delete this message mods, this isn't 1944

Are all you Acolytes not using the Marrow Shards skill? That thing tears up groups (at early levels, at least), then use Rip Blood whenever you're too low on hp.

I notice that when I'm (borderless windowed) alt tabbed to a window on a different monitor and LE still looks like it has focus on the main monitor, GPU is 100% (which, by the way EHG, you really need to restrict the FPS on menu screens to 30 or 60) but if I stick another window on the main monitor, it properly detects that LE is not in focus and GPU goes down to what it should be.

Once I'm actually in the game, which I can't achieve right now because online is down again, usage goes back down to what one would expect. I guess the graphics settings don't apply to the menu for some reason? What's the FPS like on that screen? Do you have your FPS capped through the control panel?

Tiny Timbs posted:Acolyte leveling seems a bit weird. It’s not clear to me how to avoid using minions early on since the passive tree is mostly minion bonuses. The Acolyte tree is like 2/3rd minion bonuses and 1/3rd resistances/survival. You can get by just fine without minions, Marrow Shards destroys crowds of foes and you can regain the HP tax with Rip Blood. Acolyte is definitely Last Epoch's answer to Diablo's Necromancer but you can do more than be a skeleton general. Before launch I played a Lich that went all in on being a walking poison cloud, making all my foes choke on venom while my DoTs reduce them to goo.

StarkRavingMad posted:One thing I want to flag for people leveling for the first time into the mid/end game -- don't neglect your resistances! Resistances are way more important here than in some other games. By the time you're doing the higher level monoliths, you want all your resistances capped. If you suddenly start getting one shotted by something that isn't a boss attack or huge AOE, it's likely because you have a weak resistance to that type. What? This is the only ARPG where it's not absolutely paramount to have your resistances capped. I mean you should still have them capped, yes, but the math works differently in this such that being 1-5% off from max is nowhere near the increase in damage received like in every other ARPG

Again, I have to stress that my favorite ARPG character of all time is Last Epoch's Acolyte Minion Bomber, a sort of variant on Corpse Explosion Necromancer where my own minions provide the explosion fuel and I built out a whole bunch of cool things that happen on minion death. It was a very fun build, click "Summon Skeletons" near stuff, the Skellies immediately come out of the ground and then blow up because your Skeletal Mages are set to auto-cast Sacrifice (minion blows up and deals AOE damage) on any minion that is near an enemy. Triggers a whole bunch of minion death effects, which gave me back mana, add Ward, etc. Every explosion also removed some Physical resistance from the target, which meant that the solution to Physical-Resistant enemies was more Skeletons! (it also did some Fire damage too). Itemization was easy, go for Intelligence and Minion Damage and Ward stuff, done. Great build, filling the screen with huge Bonesplosions never got old. Not sure if it's still viable though, it did start to struggle around Corruption 150 and this was over a year ago. But anyway that kind of nonsense is why I liked this game. Was the combat feel a little weak sometime? Sure, especially at low levels. But once crap started explodin' and zappin' and wooshin', it was perfectly passable.

My rogue leveling into falconer has been going pretty smoothly even after getting the mastery, thanks to a Hell Reach dropping in the fortress gardens and Cinder Strike. Still gonna switch to Explosive Trap plus Acid Flask as soon as I get the Vial of Volatile Ice, then also convert Explosive Trap to cold. Just cold explosions from everywhere. That said, I have no idea what main hand do throwing builds use. Fried Watermelon posted:It's long past time that dev teams such as this face class action lawsuits for there business practices.

They say they're having issues with 'transition time' but I can't even login. And you can't do anything except Alt-F4 when you get bored of waiting for it to connect.

Not having a finished campaign at launch does feel a little weird to me, so if people bought it expecting a complete campaign I get why they're annoyed. It's not a dealbreaker for me, but it does make calling it 1.0 feel pretty arbitrary.

In case it's not too late for the bees -- referral is: rmk2 I might play a Falconer. I played a Bladedancer in previous versions, and it was nice and mobile, so I'm curious how this feels in comparison.

Apparently the game is even more hosed today than it was yesterday. Can't even get into town. Login to char screen works, but after selecting a character, it gets stuck in the "Connecting" screen. Glad I bought this years ago and not yesterday.

Yeah you’d be crazy to keep using Rip Blood as your main. The potion drop rate is good enough that I don’t need to use Rip Blood to restore health as long as I’m putting in enough effort to avoid attacks.

Honestly, I am story-enjoyer by nature, but the way they choose to present it in this game (dialog with slowly appearing text while someone talks) is like the worst possible way to convey that, imo, since you can't speed it up without skipping it entirely. That said, I feel like the text appears a little faster in 1.0?Pharnakes posted:So has anyone actually managed to play online yet?
