Here's my tip for CoF: XP books are the best way to farm favour, even after you hit level 100 they still give you lots of favour. This is especially good for CoF because there are powerful prophecies that you should be using with the double use + double reward lenses (i.e. keys which you can sell for gold (6.5k each I believe and you drop a lot), obviously uniques to target farm gear you need, exalt bases, all the runes you need etc). XP books tend to spawn closer to the start of the monolith, so a good strategy is (once you're at your highest comfortable corruption) to clear all the nearby nodes looking for books and then path straight out to orobyss to reset it. If corruption gets to high you can naturally lower it like Empy pointed out. The books obviously also give the xp so this is also the best way to farm lvl100 and farm for rank 10 CoF. Needless to say double prophecy rewards at rank 10 go crazy.
There are nodes on the web that reset all completed nodes, so you dont have to kill ourobus if you're at your preferred corruption. You should obviously still do it if you want to push corruption
Adding this tip to your tips: Certain bosses can be killed again without costing stability for circle of fortune prophecies (The ones with a side quest after kill in particular) makes it ultra efficient to do the "kill x boss for 3x unique 0/2" Just press "T" enter your own portal instead of talking to the npc after the kill and start the memory again. Now if you add the double reward lens on top of this you can essentially just reroll till you get any of these and get around 20+ uniques in less than a few minutes. Very very rewarding way to save up favor and using it on specific uniques or items you want and helps you alot in the early-mid-lategame monoliths.
Went into this thinking I wouldn't learn anything new. Learned two really important things about the echos in the first 4 minutes lol. Great video sir.
When you are farming a monolith for a unique, clear all the unique nodes you can for that type of gear. Hit a reroll rewards node, complete it and it will reroll the remaining nodes where they can become what you are target farming. You should have a path for easy access to a few more nodes that you are targeting. If you have a reset node after this, you can also reset everything to farm more but you have to get to those nodes again.
in the monolith, on your right path, on ending the storm, if you select the second option ( longer text) on the second quest, you'll go straight to the top instead of going left.
More sorting and searching options are must for bazaar. I hope they add this. Btw, although I know the rest, it was great that you showed the respec talent with xp books.
I actually managed to fail a Tier 1 seal the other day. Did not think this was possible. Sealed it at T-2. Thanks for the right click tips. Been playing LE on and off for two years and did not know that.
Dude TY for this, the right click thing is huge and I had no idea you could do that. Also I really wish they would just remove arenas from the monos, if I wanted to do arena I would run area. Seems silly they put them inside the monliths
@@Empyriangaming ive tried replying the link like 6 times now and YT just deletes the comment right away. its on a reddit post titled "Just found this bad boy. First triple.. What build could it be good for?" the user is "u/EHG_KissingAiur" and their two comments were "It is not. It’s an equal chance to remove any affix regardless of tier. If it was weighed it would be mentioned on the tooltip of the rune." and followed up with "I asked our principal designer to confirm. I’m very confident it is not weighted."
Not being able to trade crafted bases from the basar is kind of a bummer. I understand the restriction on flipping, but selling crafted items doesn't seem so bad for the economy.
Best tip for gathering crafting materials and bases: Check the equipment vendor every time you finish a Monolith and buy all Runes of Shattering and check for good rare bases.
@@wowZhenek Yes and no, you won’t need rare crafting bases around empowered monoliths but runes of shattering you will pretty much always need a good supply of. You can get around 8 per monolith from vendor and I’m always burning through mine just breaking down purples.
@@brandonkruse6412 I got to level 100 and like 400 corruption. I stopped buying runes pretty much as soon as I hit the empowered monoliths because it was just too much of a hassle. If I ever needed shards, I'd just buy an item for 10-20k gold on the market and rune of removal the affix I needed. I can tell you for a fact that I didn't need to do that too many times. Naturally I had the rare affixes highlited on my lootfilter in case they dropped. I, honestly, never felt like I was lacking. I reiterate, I was playing the trade faction. That is pretty much the biggest reason I could entirely skip that activity
@@wowZhenek That’s a good point I suppose, I play exclusively offline/ssf so I have to take advantage of certain mechanics like shops. But I still think it’s a good tip for early on in a league while you’re trying to build up your crafting mats.
@@brandonkruse6412 For sure, but it definitely isn't something you need to be doing for too long. Sort of like chaos recipe farming in Path of Exile, which becomes inefficient very fast
If you're looking for a particular item, run monos that have a higher chance to drop that base type. So if you're farming rings, look for a mono that has nodes that drops rings. This way it's more likely.
How do people instantly return to the "monolith selection" area when tping out? When I complete an echo, I tp out and get a 3-5s loading screen. I just built a new PC with very good hardware and still get a loading screen..
9:56 "Rune of Removal are also weighted towards the higher tier mods" - I thought it was 1/4 with 4 available affixes, how did you find out? Was not able to find this information anywhere. Can you provide the source by any chance? Awesome video btw!
Ah so thats why the rune of removal decided to specifically remove the exalted DOT mod from my wep yesterday, I should have watched this video yesterday before it was released
Nice tips so far 🙌 Are you making another character? Another tips vid for that from ur experience on it would be great lol. I want to roll another myself (after reaching empowered monoliths + corruption with first) but it seems like it might be painful/slow to catch up based on reddit threads..
What happens when you seal a mod and you then use that item with a 4 lp unique, does it choose the 4 mods that are unsealed or 4 of the 5 including the sealed mod at random?
Res is not as effective in Last Epoch. Enemies gets penetration equivalent to the level of the map, capping at 75% penetration. At maps level 75 and above, capped resist of 75% just means you don't take additional damage due to penetration, not that it reduces damage taken by 75%.
no, doesnt work. It will remove whatever skill points it wants to, not necessarily the ones you want to respec. Only in very rare circumstances will it respec the exact nodes you want
I have question regarding sharing lvl of corruption. For examaple you have lvl of corruption 2002. But you played with your team on your monilit. Does rest of the group also can solo open this lvl? Or lvl of corruption is only for leader of group? And if friends from group would like to play solo they have to start from the beginning and push their own echos?
yes, but also you should read what else it says on resistances in game, overcapping has no effect, except against the mecanics that reduce your resistances
@@Empyriangaming what you do in path of exile, stretch the game's mechanics to near breaking point, showing us the upper limit of what can happen in a game
Or instead of respeccing with the book strat, you can just double click your armor with +1-3 and get 1-3 extra points. So instead of level 21 skill, you get level 24… just saying
you are not 100% correct about the resistances. even over 100% it is useful in specific scenarios to go higher than that. there are several items that encourage the player to stack either specific resistances as high as possible or even all resistances. examples for this being a specific warlock build with stacking necro res, the shield golden aegis which encourages you to stack all res for more clock effectivness and theres a unique that gives the player benefits for stacking phys res as high as possible.
@@kajiwebster8802 so like MOST arpgs* ? Yes. like PoE? no. Most arpgs completely fail to develop a meaningful endgame and assume players will tolerate grinding the same thing over and over but slighly more difficult each time. PoE threw that out the window, added a difficulty cap on endgame content and made that content super accessible so the grind to get there is not very long. But that content is super difficult. So you are grinding to surpass a fixed challenge put infront of you. You beat that challenge, feel rewarded and satisified, and quit or pick a new challenge to go after. Every other arpg has 1 single challenge, "grind this infinitely scaling content until i reach this arbitary number I set for myself". It's boring and lazy and bad game design. Only reason last epoch has any legs to stand on is because its crafting and character building is probably the best in the genre, so even if the gameplay can get boring, you keep playing because you enjoy the process of upgrading your character.
Lost ark had way more interesting and varied content. Last epoch has basically no endgame currently. They are expanding it in future so hopefully they can change the endgame enough to make it interesting. I doubt it though, fundamentally the whole "grind the same thing to grind the same thing again but more difficult" is a bad foundation for any video game. The whole monolith system would need to be revamped.
