If you’re having loading issues, verifying the integrity of game files in Steam should fix it. Very sorry for the inconvenience.

I’m working on tracking down why this happens sometimes; there might be an issue with how Steam applies patches in some situations. I’m not sure.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a race condition introduced by 0.9.1d which caused players to sometimes be disconnected after loading a zone.

Ah, yeah it’s fair to point out that I didn’t mention Towns.

We are still working on the technical details and making progress, but there’s no estimate I can give yet. We’re planning to re-launch them before our next major patch.

If you’re not seeing the update in Steam, please restart your Steam client. Thanks!

Changes

• Improved how dynamic Solar Invaders (archers) are in combat:
  • Increased how much and how frequent they move between attacks.
  • Added another short fleeing state that can happen more often, not just after taking a lot of damage.
  • Reduced their kick damage by 25%.
  • Reduced their arrow damage by 11%.
• Majasa’s Blood Pools tick 4 times per second from 5 and deal 10% more damage per tick (resulting in 12% less damage per second). The ticks now always show damage number and hit vfx, so that it’s clearer that they’re dangerous
• Immobilized enemies no longer start using movement skills (immobilizing an enemy will not interrupt a movement skill in progress).
• Improved internal performance telemetr...

Bug Fixes

• Fixed Item Linking not working. Press ctrl + right click to link up to 3 items in a chat message. Open the chat window and hover over a linked item to view it.
• Fixed a bug where Weaver’s Will items upgrading caused a performance stutter.
• Fixed a bug where parties would sometimes incorrectly use US East for their server region rather than the desired region.
• Fixed a bug where the Burning Daggers created by Cinder Strike’s Firebreathing were not affected by the Pillager’s Gold unique.
• Fixed a bug where the Increased Chance to Find Potions affix had no effect. This stat only worked when provided by the unique affixes of The Scavenger and Melvern’s Writ or by passive tree nodes. This bug also impacted the Pillager’s ...

Changes

• The waypoint for Crumbling Ruin now unlocks as soon as you complete the Shard quest in the Keeper’s Camp, allowing you to continue the campaign even if the transition to Crumbling Ruin fails.
  • If you have a character that got stuck at the end of Chapter 1, going back to Keeper’s Camp should unlock the Crumbling Ruin waypoint in the Ruined Era, allowing you to proceed.
• Fixed a bug where making quest progress in a Town, then creating a new offline character could have the quest progress of the new character fast-forwarded to the quest state of the old character.
• Fixed a bug where Hardcore characters that died in Arena were not forced back to the Character Select screen.
• Fixed a bug where Hardcore characters th...

0.9.1 Patch Notes

Rising Flames, Patch 0.9.1, is coming 2023-05-25T16:00:00Z!

Rising Flames 0.9.1 Overview by Game Director, Judd Cobler

Welcome everyone to the Patch Notes for Beta Patch 0.9.1 Rising Flames! Over the last week we’ve been going over some of the major features to expect in this patch. With a completely recreated Chapter 1, Last Epoch now starts off the exper...

Dungeons

• Likely fixed a bug that caused players to be unable to enter the Boss Room of Dungeons.
  • We have spent many hours confirming this fix so we’re pretty confident it’s resolved but aren’t totally certain since the bug didn’t happen 100% of the time. Please let us know if this bug still happens for you after updating.
• Fixed a bug where you could enter a Dungeon without consuming a key in some situations.
   

Monolith of Fate

• Fixed a bug where echoes could fail to spawn en...

Gameplay

• Fixed a bug where Temporal Shift could sometimes cast a second time after being used once, resulting in getting sent back to the era you were originally in.
• Fixed a recent bug where targeted abilities such as Lunge or Smite could fail to cast if they were the first ability you used in a scene.
• Fixed a bug where it was possible to target enemies that had yet to emerge with Lunge. Doing so would result in being unable to move after using Lunge.
• Fixed a recent bug where offline characters would have 0 potions when loaded rather than their maximum amount of potions.
• Fixed a bug where some breakable objects in various scenes continued to obstruct movement after they were destroyed in online play. This also sometimes caus...

We believe this problem is specific to the Acuity node and we’re working on a fix.

We’ve detected some server stability problems in Online mode, so the changes other than the fix for Rotten to the Core have been rolled back for now. We are investigating so that the changes can be restored.

This update fixes a regression in Spirit Plague, addresses a pre-existing bug that could affect the Emperor of Corpses fight, and improves our performance data collection. We’re still working on bug fixes and general improvements as mentioned in out 0.9i post. Thanks for continuing to make bug reports and participate in our community.
 

Changes

• Fixed a bug where players could push enemies in Online mode by walking into them. This could cause positions to get out of sync between the client and server, for example in the Emperor of Corpses fight.
• Fixed a bug where Spirit Plague’s Rotten to the Core node could not be allocated.
• Improved performance data collection on servers to aid in optimization efforts.

This update fixes a few regressions that were introduced by 0.9i. We are monitoring for any other bugs that are new to this update, and otherwise our priorities are the same as in our last post. Thank you for your patience and for reporting bugs.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where channeled abilities did not work in Offline if they were not assigned to the first action bar slot (Q by default).
• Fixed Disintegrate being invisible when converted to Fire or Lighting (the default visual worked).
• Fixed a bug where items that dropped while item labels are hidden (Z / Alt-Z) would still be hidden after turning item labels back on.

We’re aware of channeled abilities not always working in Offline mode. We are investigating.

Lagon requires a bit more than a quick fix unfortunately. He’s certainly on our list of things to address.

Monolith of Fate

• Restored The Rotting Hoard’s boss arena to its original size so that the Emperor of Corpses’ Soul Bomb attack can be avoided properly. Additionally, the damage of Soul Bomb has been increased back to the very painful amount it used to be.
• Fixed a bug where leaving a completed monolith echo via a town portal created before completion would grant rewards without applying the modifier from that echo. It now applies the modifier as well.
• Fixed an issue in Fallen Harbour echoes where one spire could spawn slightly out of bounds, making it unreachable for some builds.
• Fixed an issue in Boreal Forest echoes where two spires could spawn right next to each other which looked and felt weird.
• Fixed the ...
