Last Epoch Dev Tracker

Summon Skeleton was originally implemented at the conclusion of Last Epoch’s pre-alpha stage of development, and was one of the largest specialization trees ever created. We have periodically altered the tree as we attempted to fit options to unlock additional skeleton types, options to remove skeleton types, options to enhance the various skeletons, options to increase your total skeletons cap, and other nodes within a single tree.

Thanks for the feedback!

We’ve created another iteration of icons for spell-related buffs & debuffs;

Art	Description

Let us know what you think!

Thanks for compiling this data on freeze chance (and on shred/penetration in the other thread).

We were aware of the difficulty of keeping freeze chance high as enemy health scaled up rapidly at high levels, but this chart really helps visualise how severe the issue is. We’ve discussed this quite a bit internally since the thread was made and have decided on a systematic solution to the problem with scaling. However that’s unlikely to be ready for 0.7.3, so in the mean time we’re planning numerical buffs to several sources of increased freeze chance to alleviate the issue.

We have stated our intention to replace some skills in Last Epoch which we regard as placeholders. Two of the most commonly discussed examples are Fire Shield and Ice Ward, which we believe are fundamentally too passive to exist in the form of active skills. The functionality offered by these skills and their trees will instead be made available through class passives, trees for other skills, unique items, and possibly other sources.

Some of the feedback we have received regarding these plans is that skills which provide ‘always there’ bonuses can be fun - as they contribute to the power fantasy that is integral to an ARPG, and facilitate your character doing multiple things at the same time.

We agree with these points. For us the issue is not that Fire Shield and Ice Ward provide passive, ongoing benefits to your character, but that they fail to do anything else. To put that another way, we are not opposed to skills with passive elements - we just don’t believe that F...

Ah, the two links being next to each other made me not think to click the other part.

Because the log files are simply text they compress very efficiently, so we have considered allowing .zip uploads, but that could allow other malicious things to be uploaded. We are looking into a better solution, but in the meantime I am interested in solving the spam issues themselves.

I’ll ask about the resetting issue, but I think the only solution would be to make progress reset only on death rather than exit or death. I believe this would require a fairly substantial re-work of how the selection process functions.

Thanks for sharing the logs, unfortunately they don’t give me much to go on for now.

Hey @Peredur, I’d suggest taking a look at this thread whenever you get the chance.

When I first submitted the previous post the icons couldn’t be clicked on to see the full-sized art. I’ve just noticed that now and corrected it. You may need to reload the page for this to work.

Thank you for the feedback!

If I can be honest, I think the priority for the art should be what it refers to. Whether it pertains to armor, or fire damage, or that your character is affected by Time Rot. The art is the only clue to help you identify the subject of a buff or debuff, while the system has other ways of representing whether it is good or bad (shape, positioning, green or red outline, etc.).

That said, we’re always interested in feedback so here’s some more icons;

@Jerle & @Catmeow

Thank you!

@Dyne & @ReimerhArts...

Thank you for the continued feedback.

We haven’t had an opportunity to discuss this yet, but it is on our radar.

We are aware of log spam issues but have not found solutions for all of them yet, I’ll be taking a look soon.

In future, please be sure to note what Monolith zone you are in when you experience a bug so we can better diagnose the issue. It appears you were in Forlorn Streets, is that correct?

Since the game crashed, please check if there are any files in C:/Users/YOURNAME/AppData/Local/Temp/Eleventh Hour Games/Last Epoch/Crashes and upload them. It might be related to the length of the game session.

Thanks for the report and your patience while we investigate these issues.

Hi,

Do you know if you shattered an item while a filter was active, as described in this post? Unfortunately I can’t determine the issue from the log, but that’s the only cause of this type of issue that I am aware of.

The best way for us to be able to fix this is to know how to reproduce the issue, which requires quite careful observation of course.
