We’re moving away from a mana based resource for all Druid transforms. Previously, to maximize time in the form you often had to avoid using your heavier abilities and that resulted in one-dimensional gameplay where you mostly spammed your low cost abilities. Instead, all Druid transformations will now use a new resource called Rage. Rage will be restored to full whe...
Read moreThat’s the plan, however it is not certain it will be ready for 0.8.4.
On a different note, no one still noticed the new zone tease… 
In recent patches, we update the 3D and 2D art of several weapon groups and added powerful implicit affixes to support a wide variety of builds. In the next patch, we are updating more weapon groups such as the polearms.
We’re also making a couple of changes to item type names in 0.8.4. Polearms are being renamed to Spears and maces are no longer sometimes referred to as blunt weapons instead of maces. This changes from “polearms” and “blunt weapons” to “spears” and “maces” is being made for a couple of reasons.

We have another Music showcase, and this time our composer Wesley Freeland shares more details about the differences in approach when creating music for two distinct temple zones - Tomb of Morditas and Upper Temple of Majasa.
If you read the blog post about the music for Heoborea, you already know that it is my favorite subculture in Last Epoch. Writing music for chapter seven was one of my favorites, and this particular ...

In the Sands of Majasa Update, 21 new music tracks were added to the game. Let’s take a closer look at how some of the music you had an opportunity to listen to while you were searching for Majasa herself, came to be.
On the way to the Ulatri Cliffs, the player travels through the Crystal Mines that are now controlled by Zerrick. In the mines, the player battles the Scalebane Bandits as well as some of the creatures that live in the cave. The player fights a giant mushroom creature called Crystal Lotus that assails you with a fiery breath attack. The music creates a magical feeling that evokes a mystical underground cavern network. It starts with a percussive bed played by marimba, harp harmonics, and plucked solo cello. This is followed by intense hammered dulcimer lines that build up and create menacing music for the confrontation with Crystal Lotus, try t...

Read moreThe Sands of Majasa Update brought over 30 new monsters, including powerful new bosses. At the end of chapter 9, you have a chance to encounter the Goddess Majasa herself, experience her brutal transformation, and hopefully, manage to take her down. If you are interested in what goes into creating a powerful adversary and interesting boss fight, you are in the right place as we are going to dive into details about the lore, model, design of the encounter, and more.
Majasa, Goddess of the Desert, cares for the wealth, beauty, and perfection of herself and her domain above all else.
To achieve this perfection, Majasa believes in the value of order and has structured her society to this purpose. Her Nagasa servants and human followers are separated into strict castes, from the lowest human orphan to the Nagasa Diamond Matrons who administer her will. Majasa spends most of her time deep under her temple, tending to the vast piles of golden scales and gems she...
Read moreSands of Majasa update brought to life 21 new tracks to immerse you into Eterra’s vast deserts, dark caverns, and ancient temples. Here, our composer Wesley shares more details about the creation of his scores for the Scalebane Hideout and Majasa confrontation.
Scalebane Hideout is part of the main quest in Sands of Majasa, and a particularly fun zone to compose and write for. In this zone the player really gets to interact with this unique culture, entering a settlement and fighting through the Scalebane warriors. Chapter 8 is obviously steeped in desert/eastern influences. The music had to reflect this while, for this particular zone, keeping up the intensity and energy. I tried to achieve this through the quick percussion, using a darbuka for the main drum, and adding some tambourine sounds, low end djembe etc., to round it out.
The piece starts slow, and dips in energy in the middle so that it has some dynamic variety, especially for a tr...
