Hi everyone, I purchased last epoch a couple months back and took a break for awhile and now I am coming back. I am relatively new to arpgs (only playing grim dawn) and I have some questions for this game because based on the current titles, this seems like a happy medium to start at.

  1. Is is it recommended to create a build or follow one online? When I played grim dawn I tried my own build but then eventually swapped to do more damage. I am not relatively good at building

  2. What is the endgame like? I hear people say its "roguelike dungeons" some people say its like maps but I have no idea what those mean in the context of ARPgs

I thought LE was a good place to start because I like the skill tree diversity but I dont play the genre alot and was wondering if I could have someone explain it to me. Any help is appreciated.

Lots of different play and learning styles out there so it's hard to recommend exactly what is best but generally I think most people will enjoy making their own build. You'll probably be able to make it to medium end game with it. You'll probably slow down and end up needing some help to tighten it up and push corruption.

End game is primarily focused on the Monolith of Fate. In it you pick individual short levels which have specific challenges and rewards. It will gradually get harder and harder.
