[2020] Lost My Entire Stash

Hi there meridian, sorry to hear that happened. It’s unlikely that we can fix it. I suspect that the save files may have gotten deleted and it’s gone back to the old system in the registry which is why almost everything is gone except a very old unique item. I’m assuming that the shards which remained are all older ones too.

There are a couple possibilities that we might be able to use to recover it. First up, if you have linked your steam account, the cloud save may have kept a copy online.

We also keep a backup version in the save folder that you might get lucky with too.

In C:\Users\[username]\AppData\LocalLow\Eleventh Hour Games\Last Epoch\Saves you’ll find Epoch_Local_Global_Data_Beta and Epoch_Local_Global_Data_Beta_temp. If the temp version is quite a bigger than the non-temp version, you can rename the non-temp version to Epoch_Local_Global_Data_Beta.bak and then rename the temp version to Epoch_Local_Global_Data_Beta. This will restore the last version of your stash/crafting data.

It’s very odd that just the stash got removed and your characters are untouched. I’m not really sure how it happened. If you know some specific things that were in there that you really want back, I might be able to see what I can do…

When we do move to an online model, saves will be much easier for us to manage and recover as we will have backups on backups.
