      He's tough, but if you stand at the top of the stairs on the left hand side a lot of his abilities can't kill you, keep an eye out on the ground though as there is a cold ability which puts a circle on the ground, this can 1 hit many build so move out of the way then go back to the top of the stairs in the corner, obviously more useful if your build does ranged damage

      Should be able to farm a base empowered with half purple half yellow gear with good efficiency if you follow a build guide.

    • @ErrrrDontKnow
      @ErrrrDontKnow Před 5 měsíci +1

      If you cant do empowered monos, it is because your build is weak. This can be due to lots of reasons, maybe the logic of how you set up the build is flawed, maybe its bugged, or what i see in alot of cases, people dont really craft proper gear.
      The balance of the game isnt perfect, or even close. Its fine to make your own build, but you should atleast check if other people are running similar setups as you and getting results. If not, it might just be a weak/unbalanced skill, or its just not a skill that was ever intended to be a main dps skill.
      If you want some quick all around pointers on how to do more dmg, go for anything with flat dmg (e.g +42 melee physical dmg, if you are a melee physical dmg build) and go for modifiers in your passive and skill tree that has the word "more" in them, as they scale multiplicative. Also pay attention to your weapons base, the implicits are often more important than the affixes. It doesnt matter if you have a double T7 exalted weapon, if the weapon base sucks. All its for then, is using it on legendary potential.
      An example of such a weapon is a great leveling weapon named Firestarters Torch, this thing is amazing for the first 40 or so levels, but once you start getting more passive points and skills, it starts to fall off because none of your passives really scale well with it. It only has 3 flat spell damage, so all of your %spell damage modifiers dont do much, compared to a weapon with 50+ spell damage.

      Play warlock or falcon. Or class with 15k+ ward. Sad but true. I tried Forge Guard several times now and feel the same. Even with pretty nice gear i not steamrolling and still need be very carefull if not wanna die. Or i need get legendaries first before doing empowered ones? which makes no sense at all.
      Look this lock of him doing 200k+ a hit. ive seen my manifest armor do 9k at max. Can push higher but then I need reduce defenses to much and ye the risk of dieing increases. unless I have them legendaries to boost minion damage more. But some classes just do so much dmg they barely need defenses.

      @@greed7760 Respect! Not everyone can easily see a system and understand the nuances. No shame in that! Keep it up! Just don’t regurgitate the entire process as you go. Take time to try things and make mistakes. If your build guide says “do this” try and understand why.
      The most fun in games like this is forging your own path. Builds guides are helpful, but I think you’re robbing yourself of part of the experience. Take time to learn as you go, not just check off items on a list. Then some day you can do your own thing! More than anything, have fun!!

  • @XViper123
    @XViper123 Před 5 měsíci

    My problem is that this information is NOT available in-game.
    Without using an external source database, how are you meant to know that certain items are locked behind certain monoliths or level requirements?
    Boss's are fair enough, it's quite normal for bosses to have their own special loot tables.
    I mean I'm quite happy to use these external resources to get this information. But there should be some menu in game that is like "These are the items you could potentially get in this zone, or from this boss."
    I mean it wasn't until recently I realised using a Chaos glyph did not give you an equal chance to get any of the possible affixes, and that each one is affix weighted separately for it's own re-roll potential.

      As for gaming history, well yes, obviously. Sometimes there's merit in having things hidden, sometimes it's oversight.
      I'd argue in the case of Last Epoch, they actually do a really good job explaining a lot of things. Which is why when they miss other things, it seems more like an oversight than a deliberate design choice.

    @Weidl01 Před 5 měsíci

    thanks for comparing that. i started a HC char and i think this is where i will stay over SC. This also means i wont be farming High corruption monos for a long time. I will probably not go far above 200 corruption - i can't rly tell when it becomes too dangerous. Not much content exists about that topic in particular.
    Sadly the clip you used for empowered monos was not a fair comparison. It looked like that map was already somewhat cleared and you didn't encounter mobs on the way. I guess you wanted to show the comparison between the map completion loot explosions. The difference there was huge, would you say the 500 one was an average sample? can you say around what corruption level it started skyrocketing? I am not in COF but that should not make a difference when we want to find a sweet spot.

    • @Tenkiei
      @Tenkiei  Před 5 měsíci

      The map wasn't already cleared, my build just has the ability to off screen enemies and since you want to objective rush I was showcasing objective rushing. I just ran 1 map of each without doing anything special. What you're seeing there is how game-warpingly powerful a top tier build like Wraithlord is in comparison to everything else.
      I think the exact sweet spot is difficult to identify, but 300-500 corruption is a good place to start looking for CoF. For MG it kinda depends on what everyone else is doing.

    Getting to empowered mono isn't supposed to be hard, if it is there is definitely a problem in your build (even if the idea is meh), getting to hundreds and hundreds of corruption is different. If you struggle at 100 corruption i'm sure there are some flaws in your build easily fixable (like a key synergy missing, wrong spells, maybe not underestanding how to scale dmg correctly, not having any defensive layer at all and so on)

    I moved to Empowered a day ago, really had to slow down as I'm short on health at 1,088, (bad rng). I've got the dps so that saves me more often than not. I'm struggling to find more health items to balance out survivability and dps within empowered. I don't dare try a boss yet, too many one shot scenarios for me right now. I'm a level 88 DB Falconer. Thank you for taking the time to touch on this. It is disappointing seeing comments from more experienced players in this thread who feel flexing is more rewarding that helping others with something they deem, "obvious." Not all of us are vets of the genre but you can find elitists in most any genre.

      The developers have balanced the game around farming in empowered monoliths, if you don't want to do them you'll need to make builds which don't rely on most items as they'll be forever out of your reach. You'll have to be ok with your build being extremely weak, and not really having a path of forward progression. If you're fine with that, go for it. If not you might want to consider a different approach or a different game.

      Even with a lot of time to play it's a chore, because it feels pointless. You're not really "progressing" because everything you do in normal monos gets replaced with what you do in empowered. It kinda reminds me of ARPGs inspired by oldschool titles like D2 where you need to beat the game 3 times to unlock endgame. Every time I get bored half way through because I already beat the game.
      I think if the normal mono system gave blessings of equal power to empowered and loot more similar to 100 corruption it wouldn't be that bad, it's not really the time that's the issue it's that your farming sucks, the blessings are half power, etc.
