Last Epoch Dev Tracker

I know you're joking but the first line is actually right.

Sorry, that's all the info I have. Basically it's just that the more corruption you have and the father out you go, the bigger the numbers are.

The web doesn't generate all at once, it generates on the fly as needed.

Both hypotheses are wrong, sorry. Distance to center (as the crow flies, not the number of node jumps), empowered or not and corruption are the only things which affect node generation.

It’s on our dev tracker!

There is no way to do this in game at the moment.

It's a relative difficulty problem. If you wanted to add a system like this without significantly impacting the general rarity of LP on items, you would need to have a different amount of items required to combine for each unique. The number of wings you'd need to get 4LP would be something silly like a few trillion. I don't know what the actual number is but it's very unreasonable to expect it to be reliably attainable.

Lower level uniques would be more reasonable but at the lowest end it would probably still be something like 25-30 uniques I think. I don't have the numbers in front of me at the moment.

Have you ever tried to combine up to high runes in D2? It would be a kinda similar situation.

The item factions will also have a very significant impact on specific item acquisition speed.

I’ll chat with the dev team and see what we can do here. It’s definitely something we should have

We are still discussing how we want to handle this. We knew it was coming but weren't quite ready for it. I've been authorized to say that the data is wrong but not yet how it's wrong. We will be addressing it more completely. Given the scope of what has been released, I expect that the specific data will be released. I just don't know yet. I just figured it was better to tell people this was wrong than to just let it sit.

Anyone who has played a moderate amount of the end game should be able to tell these numbers are off pretty quickly. I'm very surprised that the image got created as it is.

A 'manufactured community event' is like letting people know that a set of things is possible but only giving incomplete information and the tools to discover the rest. Previously, we added the Fractured Crown unique item, data miners found it but quickly realized that it couldn't drop anywhere. So people started experimenting. At the time, you had to fracture a crown in the cr...

The reason we don't want to make this information public isn't rooted in the past. The reason I'm sad about it becoming public is my nostalgia for the past. I'm sad because we won't be able to manufacture a community wide event like discovering what runewords are possible. We have attempted things like this in the past and it kinda worked. (Fractured Crown)

The reason we don't want to make the information public is the result of us sitting down at a group and debating what we think would be best for the game now. 1 example of perfect percentage chances being damaging to the player experience was what happened with our old crafting system. People saw the chances and their personal experiences did not seem to line up with displayed values (it did but confirmation bias is a brutal monster). People are generally really bad at interpreting these types of chances and are even worse at reconciling it with their personal experiences (even worse when the data is wrong).

We d...

To assert dominance

I'm sad that we can't hide anything. I still remember the golden age of discovery of D2 runewords. I would love to have something like that happen with Epoch but they would just get looked up.

Occy vs no occy is completely different than 2LP wings vs 3LP wings. The mechanically unique item doesn't have anywhere remotely close to the same rarity as the D4 uber rare legendaries.

Not to mention that the data in the graphic is wrong and misleading so people get confused about it.

and thank you for your feedback. I can’t promise we’ll never make mistakes or our servers won’t catch the occasional fire but I can promise we’ll always listen and prioritize communication - and of course fixing things that go wrong as quickly as possible.

I suppose I’ll use this opportunity to plug our new bug report tool as well. It’s seriously helpful to get in-game reports this way with attached logs and allows us to find and fix issues so much more quickly. Thanks for all the reports you guys have been sending in since 092 launch.

We hear you loud and clear. Before 1.0 we’re going to smash a serious amount of bugs and polish a ton.

The switch to server authority introduced a lot of issues. When LE is out of early access we’re going to hold ourselves to a high standard in terms of being bug free, and we know you all will too - but talk is cheap and that will be on us to prove. Thanks for your patience while we’re still working towards this and I’m glad to hear you’re still enjoying the game even with the issues there are to fix.

It’s on our list of gamepad updates 👍

No, Legendary creation never takes sealed affixes.

I assumed that was what you were talking about. The zone level matters for LP drops, the image posted here assumes a level 100 zone.

Sets have the unfortunate property of their tooltips already being way too long. Adding more lines to them will only make matters worse. We have plans to modify how set items fit into the overall gearing process. We aren't prepared to explain any information as to what that means at all yet.

and yes, that was intentionally as vague as possible, sorry.

Yea, we'll see what happens with it. I'm hoping that some show up on the Bazaar and that helps to turn the general sentiment towards how you feel.

The game does use a formula, these values are approximated from evaluating a similar formula.
