So...when it comes to the factions, do I level up the Circle of Fortune to max, so I can fill my coffers with Uniques and then switch over to leveling up Merchant's Guild so I can sell all of that?

No, because most of the extra loot you get from Circle of Fortune buffs will be tagged as untradeable, or with a CoF faction level requirement, or both it really is just "pick how you most enjoy gearing up"

i did a fire necro. fire bone golem for tank, fire skeleton mages delete everything as soon as it's in range until like level 70 with next to zero investment also look for 2 "ashen" adorned immortal idols with at least 100% chance to summon flame wraith between them and then get the "wraiths can't move" on summon wraith tree. fire turret wraiths will gently caress poo poo up until you get to empowered monos

Hauki posted:import your build/gear into LE tools and post it Just figured out how to import my build, that was surprisingly easy! https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/Qqw3EjMo I just went through a bunch of stuff to try to get all my resists capped, so I'll have to upgrade a bunch more to jam more health in there. The main problem is that I feel like only a few base items are even worth looking at, AND they have to drop with a high tier resist AND can't have 2 useless prefixes, so it feels like I almost never get upgrades, and when I do, they barely feel like upgrades I'm trying to transition to a wand + off hand, but the wand I'm looking for is a Warrior's Crystal Wand. I'm also trying to get a Coven Robes for a torso. Eventually I need to get rings with dex, or opal rings with +2 all attributes so I can switch to specializing Harvest. I think my gloves, neck and boots are more or less where I want them, though I probably have to get new boots with Hybrid Health since I just learned it can only be on gloves, belt and boots, and I've heard this belt is pretty good for my build so I won't be upgrading it for a while. I do have some questions about afflictions. The guide says I want "chance to apply Damned on hit" since it'll get converted to Bleed, so wouldn't it just be better to have bleed in that slot?

How do I unlock more blessings? I finished my first monolith and it looks like I have 3 available, but quite a few are still not found. How do I find those others to have the complete pool to choose from?

also you get 4 choices in empowered and 5 choices in 200+ corruption instead of 3, so don't feel like you have to grind out the blessings if you don't have a perfect set cause it'll be easier to get them later

AH okay! So I'll probably work towards empowered then. Makes sense. I love the loot filter in this game tho, you can specifically set it to target your current gear for what would be an upgrade. I see maybe 1-2 drops per map now and immediately break them down or swap into a slot. Stash tabs? Don't need no stinkin' stash tabs!

Philthy posted:AH okay! So I'll probably work towards empowered then. Makes sense. If you want to rush empowered monoliths, just go up the right side and ignore the left. You don't have to complete all of them and the blessings on the left are all like 'x% increased drop rate for item' while the right side has stuff like +experience, resists, damage, etc. To get to empowered you need to do the 3 level 90 mono's, but not the 2 or 3 monos on the left side, you can just ignore them.

if you can get somebody to take you to the last three monos, you can do those and get to empowered without running any of the others. oh, and the mono will say locked. just have your buddy run one with you. and finish it. now it's unlocked.

A Moose posted:Just figured out how to import my build, that was surprisingly easy! As long as your resists are over 50% you are okay going into empowered. Having a good amount of effective life, whether from straight hp or ward, is a bigger deal (endurance is also huge if you are playing a health build.) You absolutely should use items with useless prefixes as along as they have good defenses and good implicits. You only want resists on ring and relic affixes in the long run, every other slot should have health or armor or damage/utility suffixes. I can't tell if you're trying to play the maxroll bleed build or not. That build is not beginner friendly and has a lot of moving parts, so it won't be easy to play as your first build. If you are using that build you need to follow the instructions and run the passives from the life planner until you start running low life. Take the point out of the dodge -> armor converson node in Ghostflame (it's bugged, doesn't work) and 2 two points from the dodge node to max out the reduced damage taken while channeling node. The max roll skill panels have a slider on the bottom that shows you what order you should allocate points, btw. Going for a crystal wand and a focus or shield with resists will be a large defensive boost even if the wand has no rolls you want. Get boots with Hybrid Health. You need a Peak of the Mountain eventually, in the short term you can wear Boneclamor Barbute if you have one for some cheap ward or a class helm with % hp, flat hp, or armor. You can replace the belt with a spidersilk/praetorian with health rolls until you get defenses sorted. Get rid of both rings. You want flat hp and resists(ideally cold or phys or poison), and you'll need one ring with t5 crit avoid once you get your empowered blessing. Gold Ring for resists will be good short term, Opal Rings better long term. That relic base is trash, get the poison resist one (or fire resist if you use a different boot base) and get resists (cold or poison or phys) and flat health before worrying about prefixes. For amulet you want flat health and resists maxed before caring about prefixes, elemental resist will be the smoothest fit cause you want to replace it with an omnis eventually. Gloves are on a bad base and you don't want phys res, but they can work until you get frostbite shackles. Drop damage idols for resist/hp idols if you aren't capped on everything. Your #1 goal is to get your empowered crit avoid blessing so you can free your chest slot. Once you replace that you will get a big boost and then you can get Last Steps of the Living and Exsanguinous for low life. Also getting some dex so you can run harvest is a good idea.

A Moose posted:Just figured out how to import my build, that was surprisingly easy! I can't look at your stuff since I'm at work, but this reddit post covers my thoughts on resist vs hp/ward pretty well. The only resists I have capped are necrotic and cold. The rest of them are super low. I've had minimal issues with this through empowered monos up to the 130 or so corruption level. Focus on hp first, that will keep you alive more than resists early on. Crit avoidance is huge though and I also don't have that anywhere near capped out to my knowledge but still do just fine.

I don't know what it is but the loot drops, despite having less "wasteful" afixes than D4 or even POE kinda rub the the wrong way sometimes since I'm having absolute poo poo luck getting what I need on a bow on an item that has like one good exalted affix to build on + an open slot for added minion damage. Maybe its because I went CoF and buying a starter set of gear was always an option, but its feeling more frustrating getting 3 good affixes on a piece of gear in LE than it does to get 4 in POE. Though maybe I'm just not biting the bullet and should be blowing shards on mediocre drops hoping to get T5 before it runs out of crafting juice.

Always be Crafting. This game is easy to craft and improve stuff as you level. You may not get a perfect or even a usable item every time, but unless it's a super rare affix you should be getting truckloads of shards, and if you need a specific affix to craft with, make a loot filter rule to highlight that affix and shatter those items to build a nest-egg of the shards you'll need. Edit: Also if you have a loot filter to show any item with a specific affix you want to shatter, and you get blue items with only one affix, you can use a rune of removal instead of shattering and you'll get 100% of the shards for the affix it removes. This does use forging potential and eat any glyph of hope if you don't clear that slot though, so just be aware of that. I have accumulated a bunch of runes of removal, so if I get an item with a couple of really good high tier affixes but it's something I can't use, I'll burn the runes of removal to recover all the shards instead of gambling with the shatter.

You get so much basic crafting materials that you can just blow some of them on any half-decent crafting base and if you get unlucky, then whatever.

A Moose posted:Just figured out how to import my build, that was surprisingly easy! On mobile, so at a glance I'm just going to echo what gnoma said. Life (or ward) is more important than capping your resists. I'm running the barbute version so I have like 600 necrotic resist, but the majority of mine are around 50% otherwise. On that note, I might recommend checking out the torment necrotic fissure version instead, I think it's easier to get going initially and you trade some single target damage for clear speed. It's also a little easier on your mana than chaos bolts. Many of your idols aren't doing much for your build, I would look for more %health or flat health with resists or armor to shore up gaps in your other gear. I don't think the +curse damage is doing much for this version, but it would for the torment (as would the added curse damage passives). The vit/res 2x1 is the only one of your 1x2 or 2x1s I would consider keeping offhand.

If you're not doing this already, you can also roll off less ideal affixes with glyphs of chaos or despair, or slam a removal & pray. Prophecies are probably the most reliable way of getting a bunch of despairs, but those are significantly more rare than chaos so I would be more sparing in how I use them. Also, as others mentioned, the basic shards are so plentiful you can absolutely blow them on mediocre drops if there's a chance at replacing one of your current slots.

Each of the statues in the Sanctuary of Eterra node, the one that lets you reset corruption, counts as a boss. Doesn't require any stability and you can simply leave without using the machine to actually lower corruption.

The three mobs before the Rahyeh fight count too I believe, they're probably the fastest ones to get to once you have the stability to fight him. Just portal out and reset after.

Just wanted a little sanity check since despite its 1.0 release it sounds like some things are still a bit under development, but it sounds like that is just with endgame content and servers, so as someone who likely just wants to play a nice campaign, likes experimenting with alts, and is planning on playing it offline, do I have anything to be worried about?

Raxx put up a video recently with a lot of good info on crafting experimental affix items: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-L8sapH_tuY There is also apparently a tool that will tell you which specific experimental affix you will put on a given item with a Glyph of Insight: https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/insight I didn't know the criteria/formula to predict that was known so that's a very useful tool if you are playing a build that really needs a specific affix to let pets port with you, ward gain based on missing life, etc.

By default Steam's patch process is kind of loosey-goosey as it tries to schedule them based on some weird calculation of network traffic, computer activity, and how recently you played the game. You can right-click on the game and set it to High-Priority Updates in the properties and in my experience that will grab updates immediately rather than "as soon as possible".

Campaign isn't finished yet, but it's easily the 2nd best ARPG out there. It's a really good game and if you're into experimenting with alts it's especially good - the different masteries and the playstyles they enable are probably the strongest part of the game.
