I’m happy to hear you don’t encounter this with other games at least! It’s never fun to be completely shut out of gaming. However, we’re not the only game this happens to, it’s actually a fairly common thing - it’s just different ISP’s with different games. Bigger game companies often have the clout to force ISP’s to unblock them, but we unfortunately don’t. Typically what happens is some sort of unfavorable service uses a set of IP’s, the ISP blocks them, then they just never remove those blocks when those IP groups get reassigned.

I also want to clarify: The message you found on reddit, was posted within minutes of the post I made above, because I wanted to provide a response to both users on the Forums here, and Users on Reddit with the same reports. I apologize if it felt like I wasn’t personally writing a response, and it was some sort of template.

As far as information backing up what we’re saying: as many users have reported with this, a VPN works. If a VPN work...

Force of habit from years of experience with SVN where it’s very intentional, haha.

1.2.3.4

1 - Major version: this number changes when there’s a very significant addition to the game, many would refer to this as “expansions” (to be clear: we aren’t planning purchasable expansions - our plan is for future content additions to be included as live service updates)
2 - Version: this number changes based on major updates to the game, such as new mechanics, content, or other. This typically refers to the cycle patch
3 - Sub-version: This number changes when there’s a planned update to the game, such as the weekly patches at the start of a cycle
4 - Hotfix: This number is not always present. it indicates a hotfix added to the game - a patch which is made in response to something, rather than as a scheduled patch.

This is 1.0.8.4, meaning it’s the fourth hotfix issued for patch 1.0.8 - ...

We have not removed the old Rank 10 Reward, it now exists elsewhere in the reward tiers.

I would say not really, no. Evade still has a cooldown, and does not provide iframes. Defenses will still be just as important as ever. Evade offers new mechanical option to help you escape abilities that are meant to be avoided, rather than damage that is intended to be mitigated.

If you’re taking damage from a ground effect, that is a result of mispositioning, not build, no? I can’t think of any ground effect dot that can’t be avoided off the top of my head.

If you’re taking damage from an ailment, these are always applied by taking some sort of a hit - meaning it’s not unavoidable damage, it’s part of the damage fr...

To clarify, because you mention getting torn to shreds from missing 20% resistance: Resistances in Last Epoch do not work like many other games. The reason for this is that enemies have passive resistance penetration based on area level, up to 75%. Because enemies will at level 75+ fully penetrate your resistances, it means the game is actually balanced around having 0 effective resistance. The result of this is that missing resistance is much less harmful. Being at 50% resistance in Last Epoch instead of 75% means you’re taking 25% more damage as enemies penetrate 75% resistances bringing the result to to -25%.

In other games, being at 50% resistance instead of the cap (75%) would mean taking 100% more damage than the 75% resistance damage is balanced against. the higher the resistance cap is, the more each point of missing resistance matters. In Last Epoch, each point has the same weight as the next, and last point.

0xc0000005 is a file access error - it means for some reason, it wasn’t able to read a file. As this is consistently happening when trying to enter a specific zone, the most likely reason is a corrupted game file. Please try using Steam’s local file validation tool, and see if that resolves the issue.

by using a VPN you are routing outside of your ISP before connecting to our servers, and the connection that the VPN uses isn't blocking our game servers.

Unfortunately this isn’t something we have power over. It’s not our servers blocking your connection, it’s the ISP blocking connections to our servers. The only way for this to be resolved is for the ISP to allow-list our servers.

We have tried reaching out to a number of ISP’s regarding this, however we’re not a large enough entity for most of them to even be willing to talk to us - Each has advised us that their customers would need to reach out to them about it.

We would love to be able to globally resolve this and have Last Epoch easily available to everyone without ISP politics, but we don’t have that kind of pull (at least not yet). The only real way to try to get this resolved is to have your ISP allow connections to our servers.

I’m closing this thread as duplicate. There is no attempt to bring new points or perspective to the conversation, and it has quickly devolved to personal attacks. If supporting existing points, please continue one of the many already existing threads.

Consistently crashing when loading the same file is a common symptom of a corrupted file. Please try running the Steam File Verification tool to check file integrity. This can be accessed by:

  • Right click the game in your Steam library and select “Properties” from the dropdown
    • Can also access by selecting the gear icon in the top right of the game details page
  • Select the “Installed Files” tab on the left
  • Select “Verify Integrity of game files”

We do not remove or take moderation actions in regards to criticizing us, our policies, or our actions. Even if the feedback is a bit heated, we know if they didn’t care, they wouldn’t have come back to provide the feedback, and so it all matters to us. The only thing we ask is that it be civil towards other members of the community, and it’s not targeted at an individual.

Comments can be hidden by the system if they are flagged by a sufficient number of users. If you have any questions or concerns about moderation actions taken by the system, or one of our moderators/staff, please do submit an appeal here: https://support.lastepoch.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=4416937240347, and it will be reviewed by someone other than the person wh...

Hello everyone!

Please remember to keep conversations civil. There has been a fairly significant number of inflammatory posts in this thread, which seems to be getting only more heated. The debate of how casual a game should be is an important conversation to be had, and having an extended debate to it can help bring out some of the reasons ‘why’ it may feel more “grindy” than intended for some players.

So we do support the conversation, only it needs to be a civil discourse. Because this thread has been so inflammatory, I will be closing it, however please do feel free to start up a new civil thread regarding your thoughts on how casual vs. hardcore you think LE should be.

We love seeing the passion for the game and providing feedback to help us improve Last Epoch, however, please remember to remain respectful of other users.

Hello Travelers,

We are aware that there are currently some fairly large queues popping up for players. Our servers are currently undergoing rolling maintenance from May 20th to May 30th, which we were not expecting to result in an impact to online availability. We are working with our service providers to reduce this impact and get everyone in game again.

The queues are working as intended, so as servers become available, they should be processed. We apologize for the unexpected queues while we work to resolve this, and will provide further updates as available.


Update 2024-05-22T18:25:00Z: Queues should now be resolving, and we’ve seen regions already hitting zero again on queues. We will continue to monitor for interruptions during the maintenance period. Thank you for your patience.

I’m locking this thread as it has both taken a very poor turn, and gone so far off the rails it’s now part of the galactic federation.

Last Epoch is not a place to implement ideological change. It is not a place for social reform. It is a video game, where people go to escape from the real world and have fun slaying a bunch of evil monsters and getting loot. Real world politics, religion, and ideology are not only against the rules because they tend to create a lot of anger and vitriol, but because they have no place here to begin with.

Our rules are designed and implemented to try to make our community the most welcoming place it can be for as many people as possible, politics have nothing to do with it. To try to create a place where people can just have fun - because that’s what it’s all about. Fun.

We will always listen to your feedback, including regarding our moderation policies and actions. However, we will not make changes to our policies which make less...

The issue with the Wraithlord is the reason this bug was investigated and corrected. It’s possible other issues could have been caused by this, though I do not have a list. If you’re encountering any bugs, please do report them via the in-game bug report tool for the team to have a look at!
