Greetings Travelers,

Over the last week, we have been reading and discussing your feedback about our announced plans for the Event Cycle launching on September 19th and Last Epoch’s next large update targets. We want to continue this discussion with you today and get your feedback directly.

We are holding a Poll for the next 48 hours regarding our Cycle Event and will act in accordance to your input. We think the details of this post are important for making an informed decision, but we want to make sure that the poll doesn’t get lost in the mix.

Greetings Travelers,

We have had an exhilarating week, celebrating your victories and lamenting your defeats. We cheered on every attempt at Aberroth we could find. We watched in sadistic glee as he demolished the hardcore leaderboard. Spending that time with the community is a once in a lifetime magic, and it is humbling to say the least.

This weekend a new gold dupe exploit was brought to our attention. The integrity of Last Epoch’s player economy remains paramount to our mission of creating an amazing ARPG experience. We wish to thank you, the community, for bringing this to our attention promptly.

We detected the exploit and temporarily disabled player-to-player trading (which was the method being used ) via server-side flag, while we investigate further. We’ve also increased our monitoring and are taking action against abusers. These actions have already had positive impact, as we see prices across the bazaar stabilizing.

We do take exploits of any k...

I’ll say I was not a believer in dodge roll (evade) before the team prototyped it and we got to play with it. It feels good and we believe people will agree when they get their hands on it.

No we’re not going to make regular Epoch content require lighting fast reflexes because of this addition. Maybe the pinnacle boss? We’ll see as we’re still balancing the fight.

Just another note - I want to emphasize how much the roadmap leaves out. Look at any of our other major patch notes and consider we’re only getting faster and adding more team members.

Changes

• Fixed an exploit related to gold generation

Hi Suschu, were you by chance using a controller or had a controller plugged in when this occurred?

Hello, Travelers!

Wow, what an opening week for Last Epoch. We are absolutely floored by the turnout and response to the game. Having started as an after-hours passion project from die-hard ARPG fans, we’re in awe that Last Epoch reached 265,000 players online at one time this weekend, the #39 highest concurrent user count recorded on Steam - ever. We appreciate you all bearing with us as the load initially gave us trouble for online gameplay, but we’re happy to say that we’re holding mostly steady above 200,000 players in-game and have made improvements each day in the backend infrastructure to support the demand. We’ll continue to monitor and address any issues that crop up.

I want to take a moment to talk to you all about what’s coming next.
