Awesome! posted:oh huh, this 2lp wraithlords harbour i found awhile ago is worth a fuckton apparently. I am realizing that the auction house faction is absolutely the way to go. Getting bigger loot pinatas and better affixes is cool but if you are hunting for specific uniques its rough.

Is it tough getting the exalted you want to use with the LP unique? Or is that an easy purchase off the AH as well?

i made a guy that is one of those marksman trap builds, where you are marksman for detonating arrow and get the explosive trap node that procs it and splash ballista and get the explosive ballista and it's really fun

I hit 100 on my warlock and also finally got an Immolator's Oblation after ~25 soulfire bastions. It's only a +4 damage roll but did come with 1 LP which I smashed and hit a necrotic resist affix so that's decent for now. I've tried a number of versions of warlock at this point and it's definitely a powerful class but I've still never completely accepted that most loot that drops is a screen behind me, and with how much value there is in exalted items that is tough to deal with. I only took my falconer to level 82 so I'm planning on messing around with him a bit more now to see if there's a build that clicks for me.

Where do y'all go for build recommendations? I dunno how good Maxroll is for this game and I have no idea how to tell who on youtube does and doesn't know their poo poo. Also, I'd love some goon recommendations for a tanky melee build with some good looking VFX attached to soothe my dumb lizard brain. I'm leaning toward Tempest Strike but IDK if it should be a beastmaster or shaman.

Making your own builds in this is definitely easier than other ARPGs, but way harder if you've never played one, or played Diablo. I usually pick a build from maxroll and then see if I can find someone else doing it better comedy option: Icy Veins

Is there some kind of multiplayer on their roadmap which approximates drop in/drop out greater rifting from D3? I'm getting tired of playing single player but I don't want to have to constantly coordinate with people I know playing

Mr. Baps posted:Where do y'all go for build recommendations? I dunno how good Maxroll is for this game and I have no idea how to tell who on youtube does and doesn't know their poo poo. For Youtube the main thing is seeing actual gameplay footage. If they are doing monoliths look at the block of text on the right and the enemies haxe xxx% more damage and health line. It roughly correlates to the current corruption level once you start pushing. If it's over 200% the build probably is worth considering. If it's below 200% the person likely hasn't spent time optimizing and testing the limits of the build. If the block of text is missing or it has no % or 60% then it's phoned in and you want to look for a different guide. Good builds go well above 200 corruption, but pushing is mostly about investing time and builds that are smooth at 200 or 300 corruption are typically going to be smooth up to and beyond 500. At the moment, really good builds are farming comfortably fast up to around 600-700 corruption and bug abuse builds are pushing 1000 corruption without trouble. (For builds pre-1.0, the more damage line used to be only half the value of current corruption and it would scale more slowly past 250. I would look for at least 150% to 200% in the more damage line for good pre-1.0 builds.) If there is footage from a dungeon you want to see the text on the right say "substantially more" in the lines related to drops or see the more health and damage at around 270%-330% when fighting the boss. That indicates they are doing the tier 4 version of the dungeon, which is equivalent to like 200 or 250 corruption in monoliths. Also look for boss kill times under 1 minute, longer than that means very weak single target damage. Next to the skill bar there is a vertical bar that is typically like teal colored and functions as a ping indicator and if that's missing they are playing offline. Playing offline means they can edit their saves and add unrealistic gear or set their corruption to whatever level they feel like and there's a good chance the build won't be smooth to play if you are putting it together legit. Maxroll is the most well curated list of builds out there, but has some duds. Best way to tell if a maxroll build will be good is checking the author. Volca and Bina builds are reliably good. Terek's leveling guides are fantastic. McFluffin builds are good but he doesn't min/max them super hard so you can probably find a better version or optimize them further yourself. LizardIRL has great Lich, Necromancer and Runemaster builds. The rest of his builds are older and copied from the community and I don't think he ever played them himself. They have some good tech but are outdated and some of the builds just aren't good any more. The Roid Mage build from VisionGL is fine. The Dive Bomb and Devouring Orb builds from Boardman21 I'm not sure about. Some decent build sources on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@PerrythePig - meta builds with minor hispter touches https://www.youtube.com/@Alliee - meta builds, a little bit clickbaity https://www.youtube.com/@TheCurseBG - meta builds, some experimental builds, a little bit clickbaity https://www.youtube.com/@Dr3adful - offmeta experimental stuff, with some highlights of very strong builds from the community https://www.youtube.com/@lizardirl, https://www.youtube.com/@BinaQc, https://www.youtube.com/@volcavids, https://www.youtube.com/@Terek_LE - the core maxroll team, they make some guides on youtube that aren't written up on maxroll https://www.youtube.com/@Boardman21 - casual, easy to follow leveling and beginner builds https://www.youtube.com/@amityqt - mad scientist of LE, not a prolific video maker but a lot of his tech gets used by other build creators https://www.youtube.com/@trikster08 - rogue guru https://www.youtube.com/@maomaosgaming423 - lich guru https://www.youtube.com/@Mistia42 - player from Singapore that is kind of a bridge to the chinese speaking LE sphere, infrequently posts some crazy builds.

Failboattootoot posted:CoF is for me, a person who would rather do drat near anything else than gently caress around with a marketboard. Same. I play solo and I like finding stuff and not interacting with other human beings even through a market interface. I changed up my WraithLord build, dropped zombies and picked up Bone Curse instead. I can't clear huge packs of junk mobs quite as fast, but it's easier to keep the Wraithlord constantly fully buffed since the cooldown is shorter and mana is never an issue. I also gave up a significant amount of damage (probably 1/3) in order to change out some gear for more health, so I'm regularly sitting at 5k ward now. Ghostflame is pretty underwhelming as a movement skill, even if it is an excellent defense skill, so I may drop it for Transplant at some point. I haven't really decided on that yet. I wish there was a way to Loot-Filter idols by 'affix', but I can't seem to do it, so I have to mouse over every single idol looking for the health ones that I want. Next to impossible to find ones that have both affixes that I want.

Hit Man posted:Reading about Merchants makes me sad. CoF is a good idea but not specific enough to overcome RNG I used the two multi items and the unique item for prophecies and was able to get 2 3lp exsanguinous in 30 minutes. the struggle of cof is more in the boss related drops having high lp. the rest is about understanding the mechanics and how to target farm effectively. cof/ssf is not for brand new players who want to compete, just like any other loot based game e - the high lp boss drop issue also gets solved with higher corruption anyways. the higher you go, the more you fight the boss, and the more chance at higher lp per boss fight.

I unlocked empowered Mono's on a few of my characters but I'm kinda "maining" my Swarmblade Druid to farm drops for alts. Anywho...... I am trying to farm up the Stormcarved Testament (https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAwVg7ATAjALEA) and it says to Farm up Lagon. I assume that means that I do empowered "Ending the Storm" hunting unique's/exalted on the map until I can rush Lagon.......wash and repeat? Is that the basics of farming unique's you want? I need one for both this Druid and my runemaster

That's dropped by Lagon specifically, so just complete your echoes as fast as you can to get the Stability to do the Monolith quests and punch Lagon in his big dumb face

as long as it isn't a 50/50 item, more rarity will help it drop and gain lp. also, the frequency of the boss encounter will rise with your corruption
