Just started playing Last Epoch the other day. Was looking for a video like this to give me the advanced crafting tutorial. Super clean and in depth video man, helped me a ton!
Crafting still makes no sense to me. I have collected HUNDREDS of crafting components (shards and runes) but EVERYTIME i press F to forge ANY item it says "You have no shards that match your current search and filter criteria." Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? I have tried dozens of different gear but it just keeps saying the same thing everytime its so frustrating. :(
@findlaycurtis hmm, I haven't heard of any crafting issues myself. Sorry if I'm about to sound condescending lol but you are putting the item into the forge yeah? Like shift right clicking the item you want to modify. Also remember that any runes or glyphs you use stay active in the forge until you manually click into them and hit clear so that could be causing issues if you tried using a glyph in the past and it's still actively slotted into the forge
@@deucey6790 ya i tried that and dragging the item in but it still always just says i have literally 0 crafting item, which of course is the complete opposite of the truth.
@findlaycurtis another silly question, just trying to troubleshoot for you and rule some things out lol. You are transferring the shards when you pick them up right? There's a button on the top right above your inventory grid that says transfer crafting materials or something along those lines. Like once you pick up the shards, you have to then transfer them from your inventory INTO your shard/affix bank
@@deucey6790YOU DID IT! Thanks so much man! Now I can finally craft! lol (on a side note i didn't see anywhere in the game that mentioned you had to do this, not even when i clicked the guide button after going into the forge menu lol, would have been nice)
Oh man, thank you. Great guide!
Good,clear info! Bro!
Thanks!
Great vid, Ten. Crafting in LE is a lot of fun. And way more straight forward than PoE. I think most people will love it.

@@findlaycurtisbro u have a button in your inventory under idols u press it and tranford shards into the forge, they don’t work unless u do that
@@jakubciazkowski3516 thank you
Thanks for the vid pal, I will try some crafting now!
amazing video, this is such a compelling and fun crafting system
Very clear and intresting vid , thanks a lot
Thanks a lot for this guide!
Thank you very much, this was quite useful.
I've been levelling the classes I havent played yet ahead of release. Although the crafting is a lot simpler than poe, I haven't engaged in any organised way yet, been doing just enough to get by & get to monos. This will be very useful, thanks!
Great video man this cleared up crafting a lot for me bout to start doing work now 😃
Love the vid, and i gotta say after so much time in PoE, Last Epoch crafting is a breath of fresh air, and i feel more inclined to try the mechanic because the resources are easily available too.
Last epoch is the first ARPG I played in my life, this guide was very VERY helpful to me, and now I finally understand how to craft good items and take good affixes from other items, thank you :D
Great guide, thanks
Thank you! I needed this video. Also, new subscriber!
What level to start worrying about crafting?
20?
40?
80?
When purples drop?
very good video. THanks so much
This was extremely helpful and very well explained. Thank you!
You're welcome.
very nice video you got bro, hoping for more of your videos.
Just what I needed
I’ve been watching since Torchlight infinite and this is the best guide I’ve followed. Thanks Tenkei!
Crafting mechanics look really engaginf, trading infinite slams for chosing affixes with a twist is a great idea! Plus the affix specific shards to use is also making the system hold together in a coherent way! Looking forward to playing this!
This is probably the best crafting video I have seen yet.
Best beginners guide, thank you
Handy video thanks mate
Thank you
Commenting for the algorithm. Your videos are very well done.
Very insightful, I love that you showed some examples, thank you!
thanks!
At around 11:00 you say that Rune of Discovery consumes all Forging Potential, but it doesn't. Part of the benefit is that it consumes zero Forging Potential to fill out all affixes. In the early game, I've used this to make crappy white items into decent leveling items during a time when I don't have twink-worthy uniques. It's still a niche use case, which I thought you were going to point out, since the affixes are more likely to be rare, and therefore it'll be harder to increase them beyond Tier 1, but it has some limited use cases.
I did not say rune of discovery consumes all forging potential, I said "you have random T1 affixes, and then all your forging potential is gone" IE: your forging then potential gets wasted spamming chaos or w/e trying to do anything with it.
I get that sometimes it has some niche uses, but most of the time I'd rather just find an upgrade with 1 affix off the floor and craft a couple more after that since the campaign is pretty easy / fast so it feels bad to me to get bogged down in crafting a bunch. --- I think for a lot of people the more common use is going to be shatter fodder with a few niche cases here and there (such as leveling items on certain bases). Though for a 2nd or 3rd character I find I have ample shards for the leveling process since I don't tend to reroll until after I've played a bit.
@@Tenkiei all fair points. It's the ambiguity of capital Forging Potential (the stat) and lowercase forging potential (the idea). Words are hard, lol. Still, echoing my later comment, I really appreciate the effort of these guides, and I'll definitely stay tuned for future videos, be it Path of Exile or Last Epoch
This was exactly my thought. I’ve used this to give a boost to my alts as they lvl through the campaign
One of my favorite things is being able to craft unique items. I have a few unique to drop for me but they're not specifically for my class or even my build, but I did get a scroll that allowed me to turn the base version of a unique item. Pretty much a yellow generic breaking Boots into some boots for a shaman at summons vines as I walk around and I thought that was like the coolest thing ever and I'm noticing doing the leveling process. I can safely not worry about stats too much and just focus on the implicit stats while hoping to find some good affixes and suffixes and that's allowing me to pretty much save all of my shards for the end game. And I'm noticing the implicit stats are based on the item type. So let's say if something's called like Ruby ring all ruby rings are going to have the same implicit stats so you know the pretty much. Just keep your eye out for that specific ring if you're looking for upgrades and I like that system so much more like it's I like randomness but I would like some kind of consistency in the randomness. Right now I'm looking for turquoise accessories because of my build and I haven't found any. But I'm looking for specifically commanders turquoise accessories and then I can buff the affixes and suffixes from there and commanders I think is minion damage and the turquoise accessories always roll with minion damage on them too
Just started playing. Didn't know that, that is very cool? So i just keep an eye out for a specific name on items that i know will benefit my current build. Thanks for the help❤
As a new player even with this video it's pretty difficult and complex
So is gold mainly for me to buy runes of shattering so I can grab the attributes I want off items I'm not going to use? Since I mostly throw it on farming minion attributes from items so I can build good Necro gear.
This had some really good info. Thanks for making this
Great Video and good explaination. Thank you for this. I have one question. How do you give an item with less then 4 affixes/prefixes the missing slots and does this make Sense?
I just now learned about the button "transfer materials". I had 5 stash tabs with materials and didn't know what to do with it.
Thanks for this video. I'm new to the game and very unsure of myself going into crafting, but this video is very insightful. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Rune of Discovery is great when leveling early on, if you have one that is 🙂
this is my first ARPG GAME EVER lol your videos been helpful
'
Can you put an item that has a sealed affix and 4 affixes onto the Temporal Sanctum?
My first comment was a suggested correction, but I wanted to come back and say this is a great primer for crafting. I already knew most of this from my time playing the game, but a few of the rarer crafting materials, and how to leverage Experimental Affixes effectively, were very informative. Really appreciate all of the great information you share! Keep up the good work dude
When I should start forging at what level?
The best part about crafting in Last Epoch that I enjoyed coming from PoE is the ability to play offline/SSF and actually use bases I find on the ground to craft with.
The game feels like it’s deliberately designed to be a self-found experience and it’s refreshing to have easy to pickup crafting systems to support that.
Not having to tab out to trade, watch videos or read guides is a plus for those of us that just want to login and play the game.
Completely agree. I love trade league in PoE and I go pretty hard every league. But LE makes me feel so much better when I'm crafting my own stuff and creating my own builds. I know lots of people love the mathematician level PoE requires to make solid builds, but I don't 😂. I do enjoy the fruits of those people's labor though.
@@JayBigDadyCy I enjoy trade league as well but I recently started doing all of my gaming on a Steam Deck so I’m looking for games that have the least amount of trading as possible! Lol
How do you know what is a good base item?
Anyone knows if when 1.0 release we will have to download the game again or is only a patch?
Why did 11 forging potential get removed when it says 1-10?
Meanwhile PoE: 1 hour guide on how to use essences efficently
well technically each essence does 2-3 things depending the item you use it but other than that its the simplest thing on poe crafting you slam an item with a stat you want and you get other randoms there isnt an efficient way to use them other than getting a fractured item
Dude thought of the first system that came to mind to try and trash the game and picked one of the simplest lol
@@emarbeats6896 probably the only one he knows haha
@@dragonjim93 some people cant just say something isnt for me and move on with their lives
Speaking as someone who has played POE off and on since launch, the crafting and amount of currencies has reached an absurd level. Over the last 4-5 years, POE has become a game that only caters to people that devote their lives to the game and to people that play 8-10 hours a day. PoE is truly for the neckbeards at this point.
I need a good mid tier chest piece. I'll ve experimenting after work for sure. Anyone suggest a good base?
ok so, i have like 12 stashes full of just items and items, is there a point to having them, as in can i get to integrate them into the forging mechanics without the rune of destruction or is the only way to get value out of items on forging is through runes of destruction.
i am still confused as to "unique item" mentioned, cuz it makes it sound as is, unique/legendries are not that far off from simple upgraded yellow/experimental.
disclaimer too, crafting is not "hard", just so much building block involved into it and many players have experiences where too much risk resulted on losing end game potential or being stucked with a "boring build" many often dont see the point and value of forging items, in my case i bring up 1st question, whats the point of having high stashes count, if item value on forges is not really tangible (runes of destruction go 1.8k a pop on the early campaign but extra stashes are like 500 gold if not mistaken then it adds up to till 25k something but still).
First time i play game that crafting is fun.
Great video, I was definitely scared to jump into crafting so waited until I got to timelines. But you made this easy to understand as I feel like my build is getting to the point where I need to craft. Thanks for all the info!
great tutorial, It's pretty simple it seems but it's also a bit of a pain while leveling lol, but I definitely think its a LOT better than Diablo 4s lategame crafting. I'd rather grind monoliths and find good gear pieces I can work on upgrading versus doing those darn event spots to get a time limited resource with terrible inventory management and obnoxious scaling. I quit diablo 4 at like level 60 cuz it was just so boring, but I'm enjoying the skilling and leveling of last epoch a lot more :) can't wait to setup even better loot filters to be specific for what I'm looking for
When I first started playing LE I went absolutely bonkers on the crafting system. Figured the best time to lose shit was right out the gate, as opposed to at the end of a run.
First timer here. Am almost thru the campaign and have not crafted once lol.
great video, can you make a guide for filters?
ua-cam.com/video/uuJK1BHiwZs/v-deo.html as far as I know nothing has changed since I last made a filter guide.
I was level 87 when I started crafting 😅 but every helpful video
rune of discovery is good for when you start a new character and dont want to waste forging potential on magic or white items.
I just want a Bastion of Honour man... Everybody has one! My paladin needs one!
You could always try to get Face of the Mountain instead. It's a bit easier to farm.
Looking forward to when this will be relevant. I'm lvl 60 now, and and since around lvl 35 the game has been so easy I just sprint through 90% of everything as my auras kill stuff, I don't currently need any new gear lol.
Can i seal an affix on a Exalted weapon then turn it into a unique and keep that affixed on it?
Nope, sadly you can't cheat extra affixes onto your legendary by sealing it.
So, when do we need to start worrying about this? I'm almost level 30 as a falconer and am having a hard time killing enemies at my level. I'm just using a bow I found from a few levels back. Is this something you need to get into right away to succeed?
Yes, check out the "crafting during the campaign" section. For Falconer you'll want minion damage or dexterity affixes to scale your damage, and res/life to scale defenses. You can also check out my recent "top starters" video where I interview Terek about some best practices while leveling :)
Why is mana regen high value? 18:30
Around mid 20’s I used some rare materials on my fresh hcscf without knowing what’s important to save. I wish i had watched this a lot sooner.
Such an amazing information guide on crafting. I was able to craft some amazing pieces of gear and really start to feel confident in my build and push into late game earlier.
Thanks for this video
its not bad
Fair to say Last Epoch has a better crafting system than POE at least at the low to mid end?
higher floor, lower ceiling than PoE crafting, if that makes sense.
You can craft a 9/10 or 10/10 piece realtively easily in Last Epoch.
You can spend days and hundreds of divine orbs crafting a usable piece in PoE, but in the end it can turn into an 11/10.
It's more convenient for people that want to have homemade items but don't like crafting. For people that like to invest time into a crafting project no.
Crafting in Path of Exile akin to a gambling simulator at the higher end. While there are many deterministic things you can craft, you will always be at the mercy of RNG with most crafts.
Crafting in Last Epoch is intentionally designed to be workable for an offline-SSF player who just wants to pick up bases off the ground and improve them.
On low to mid, yes. It's very easy to create a decent T18-T20 item. However, once you get to the point where only exalted items are an upgrade to your build, it can get a bit frustrating when you finally find the exalted base you were looking for, only to have it blow up in your face within 4 seconds due to bad crafting rng. In Poe, if you get your hands on the correct fracture base you want, that thing WILL turn into the item you're looking for. Eventually. What I like about LE is that you don't spend hours upon hours crafting. Every crafting process ends very quickly, one way or another.
So, rune of discovery doesn't cost forging potential, and the best use would be on exalted items.
You should never use it on exalted items. It essentially ruins the item's future craftability, hence why it reduces the potential for forging. I am not referring to the "Forging Potential" stat, but instead the item's usefulness when forging.
If an exalted item doesn't have a good affix on it and I'm just gonna blow it up, I use those runes to fish for something nice is all. I don't use it on ones I plan to feed or equip. Just feels bad seeing those runes pile up lol.@@Tenkiei
I have a feeling crafting might def be an endgame for some people. Those who can see certain items undervalued on the market, forge them to god items and then resell them for huge profits.
On release you won't be able to resell an item which you've purchased.
those players will NEED to craft on the item before selling it. you cannot resell items in last epoch. once you buy it thats it its yours cant be resold
Hay, thanks for the video, was great help. I dropped subscribe and like, hope that helps.
It does, thank you!
Still takes way to long to get uniqes with LP + an exalted item with a good aff/suffix ... And if u fail with craft u have to go again... It is insane time consuming.
useful video, however expecting the viewers to know the terminology... like when you start talking about "LP" without explaining what the freck the LP is
There are a few mistakes in this video. 1. Shatter gives runes back up to a max of the affixes but mostly lower. 2. You said glyph of insight gives a random experimental affix, when in truth its deterministic. Otherwise fine video :)
Yeah originally I thought the text on Insights just meant "it's random but specific affixes for the base type" I did later learn (through tunk's excellent calc) it's deterministic. Thank you for explaining stuff like this, because you never know what you don't know!
wasnt sure on crafting. lvl 60 w/o much crafting and hitting a brickwall... 😂😂
First I suppose
It’s funny seeing that people think last epoch is new lol
2nd i guess
One thing that has annoyed me is getting critical success when using a Glyph of Chaos. They should make it impossible since critting would be working against you in this case.
3rd perhaps
3rd why not
This is not simple at all..
Smh just like Diablo 3 crafting is complicated.
As good as the crafting system is, I still prefer the hunt and excitement for unique drops.
You can still find uninques bud
3/4LP Uniques are the chase items in LE. You fuse a crafted base to the unique to make your BIS items for the most part.
@spicyfrog8818 exactly. My best item is My 3LP bleeding heart amulet. It's GODLY for my Hammerdin
Probably the reason I won't play.. I hate crafting..
You'll love D4
@emarbeats6896 I do still enjoy d4. But that game has its own issues. I have never liked crafting or gathering in amy game. In vanilla wow (way back when lol) I played at launch and didn't touch either thing until I had t2. Even today in ffxiv I have most of the combat classes maxed and only leveled a crafter so I could meld my own materia. Otherwise I wouldn't have. It's just not what I look for in a game.
@@MorionAikanaro arpgs probably just arent for you then thats part of the game
@emarbeats6896 I can think of plenty of them where it isn't mandatory.
@@MorionAikanaro name one that people actually play
Shitty game. Mobile feeling. I want my money back !
Yeah need a TLDW version, it sounds to complicated to bother learning. After 4 mins all I hear is blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah. I will just stick with equipping what drops on the ground.
It is complex??? If he did a tdlr version you'd be even more confused. The examples he gives really help you understand how it works. Before you say you don't have time, I'm a full time worker and just came back from the gym, made food, and showered. Just need to give time to learn :)
You say that it's difficult to master, but there is no 'mastering' this system. There is no skill or knowledge involved in losing 2/3rds of your forging potential in a single click on a drop that took 100 hours to farm.
Imagine building a new house. You put up the frame for the house(you pick the floorplan, wow!), then try to install the drywall(you pick the materials, wow!). Halfway through installing the drywall, a giant foot comes down through the clouds and crushes your house. No, you don't get your money back, can't sue the contractor, and there's no insurance. You still owe money on that mortgage. If you want that house, your only option is to start again, working for however long it will take for you to afford it.
That's Last Epoch crafting in a nutshell: it promises you a way to 'deterministically' enhance drops, but it's absolutely cancerous once you start the endgame and understand the realities surrounding it. In PoE, you don't lose your base on a bad roll: the game tells you 'That's okay, you can try again. You'll get it eventually.' In Last Epoch, you have a 9999/10000 chance of bricking your base and the game tells you 'Too bad, are you stupid enough to try again?'
Last Epoch's crafting system is extraordinarily bad and seems to reflect the design philosophy of the dev team, much like their CoF/Merchant Guild design. It's the illusion of choice. In reality, there's only one sane way to play and everything that suggests otherwise is a shallow, dead end system that doesn't stand up to scrutiny past 100 hours of gameplay or so.
Valid points. I still prefer it to PoE. It would be nice to have a way to reset forging potential somehow.
idk that id go as aggressive as this at it, but yeah basically what you're saying. The issues with the game are that at the surface level, and mid level, everything looks reallly perfect. But there's no end point. In the purest sense of the word chase, Last Epoch has the most 'we dont value your time' chase that exists in any game ever made. Crafting is part of that, LP another part, Endless arena another part, blessing farm another part, etc.. etc... etc...
There is a reward in that, and it can be fun, but that's because I dont want crafting thats too deterministic, i personally want to have stupid long grinds for things that I might never get etc... The people praising this because they do? Oof, they're in for a rough time in a month or so when they start to realise what the game actually is lmfao
Nooooo. Crafting is literally just busy work to keep you "engaged" in the game. But you are actually not playing the game..... You are working... In a game....
Poe use to punish me for trying to workout how to craft but lost epoch is letting me make mistakes and doesn't punish me for trying new things....
