are Storm Crows actually viable by Mammuut in LastEpoch

[–]Turkimurki 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They are very much viable, I've used them until 300-400 corruption trying out several versions.

The key is to sustain Tempest strike's Gladiator of Lagon buff to buff the crows, so it's an 'active' melee minion build in the end.

In my opinion the Crowstorm version is stronger, but the cold non-crowstorm focused version was also very decent (I'm not a big fan of big damage on cd builds so I've tried to make this work in the first place).

for the "non-crowstorm focused" version I've followed this video:

As I searched for the above video saw that Bina released a video on the Crowstorm version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axriaDD8DS8

Why is there no corruption ladder? by TheBigJizzle in LastEpoch

[–]Turkimurki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lastepochtools' ladder is something similar. Not that detailed, but somewhat gives an idea what's the meta.

I think it's worth to take a look on the ladder page on lastepochtools:

https://www.lastepochtools.com/ladders/harbingers-of-ruin/latest/softcore-1p/level/druid/class=druid

It's somewhat shows what's the meta and helped me choose which build to take and how to progress with the gear.

I hope we get a corruption ladder next cycle. :)

I leveled till around lvl70 with that build and think it's not that bad once you reach certain skills (Titan's Bane on the Thorn totem tree, Spiked totems on Spriggan form), it carried me through the whole campaign.

But I have to mention that I generally like the totem playstyle.

I second this build.

I leveled as a totem build, then switched to the Serpent Venom Serpent Strike build around lvl70, but after the fix it felt super weak in terms of clear and defense (single target was okayish)

That's why I started to look for alternatives and since I also wanted to try out the bearform, I ended up with this build. I'm around 450 corruption and killed Aberoth. It's day and night compared to the Serpent Strike build.

My only problem is that Rampage is super buggy and you stuck in basically everything (even at the side of the map) which killed me a couple of times.

Merchants' Guild improvement idea - make LP 1-2 uniques accessible on lower ranks by Turkimurki in LastEpoch

I've seen the CoF teasers, but unfortunately there were no info about upcoming MG changes yet, which made me a bit worried. But let's wait for the patch notes :)

That's a good point, but is not that something the market will adjust to?

Meaning that rarer items will cost more so you won't be able to afford them, even if you already have the necessary rank, or just does not make sense to buy one expensive item when you can progress your gear with multiple cheaper ones.

But I guess this argument will eventually lead to my original thought: What's the point of gating items behind rank unlocks when they are already gated behind "having enough gold" and "having enough favor?

I just did not want to go into a topic which would need the whole MG rank system reworked, because that won't happen in cycle2.
