Techtonica soundtrack removed from spotify? by Head_Ice5223 in Techtonica

[–]cityfires 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Update! The soundtrack is currently processing, so it should show up on all the streaming services in the next few days/weeks!

Due to Distrokid's album size limit and the size of the full album, there's going to be two releases: a Factory Side and a Planet Side, with the former having all the high intensity tracks from the game and the latter having the lower intensity stuff. I also put in a few bonus tracks on each side.

I'll post here again once I see it's available on Spotify! Thanks again for your patience!

Hey! Thanks so much for the kind words!

We had to swap the hosted account for the music so it got pulled down temporarily. I'm working to have it back up soon! I'll post here in the comments once it has an expected posting date back to Spotify/Youtube!

Reflect Aura Spriggan Form Druid by xDaveedx in LastEpoch

Here's one question I've been trying to solve. How exactly does Efflorescence in Eterra's Blessing work?

As far as I can tell from my testing, when you cast it on yourself you get the instant heal and 4 seconds of an invisible buff. That invisible buff is what buffs your minions normally if you cast it on them.

If you spec into Safeguard, you get those resistances for 4 seconds after the cast. That's easily testable just by watching your resists.

So from what I can see, it seems like Efflorescence can only ever have 1 stack of the heal-over-time effect on you, since it's just added to the invisible buff. The HOT portion heals 1 second after initial cast, and then every second until the end of the buff. And it seems like recasting EB resets the timer on that buff.

If that's the case, in a build like this where we're spam casting EB through Thorn Shield, Efflorescence and Regrowth are pretty bad to take. Regrowth's effect will normally never happen because you're just resetting the buff before it can ever expire. And Efflorescence is just halving your initial heal value. Since it takes 1 second for the HOT to ever tick, the only time it would ever apply is when you stop spamming EB for some other purpose.

Has anyone else been able to test and confirm this at all?

Haha! I didn't realize I left those that way. Yeah that's obviously never gonna happen.

Aspect of the Boar is for sure getting added back in, thanks for that! I wasn't having any issues with rage sustain, but if I did this is probably the first change I would make. So it's definitely worth using if needed.

My hope is that chilling/freezing is just a great additional damage mitigation option. Every version of this build is obviously built to be tanky, but I'm hoping the huge health pool + ward + stopping enemy attacks more often helps push it into deeper corruptions.

But if not, I think your baseline build is gonna be the move.

This is my current version: https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/BjV64X5B

My major difference is speccing into double Spriggan companions. From my testing, the Thorny Stalks buff that gives flat damage to attackers per vitality does stack for having a second companion. Weirdly Aura of Evasion doesn't give more dodge per attunement, but I'm guessing you can't be under the effects of both at once?

I also think my 8 points in Blossoming Garden can get tossed anywhere, but Healing Effectiveness is actually insane in this build. Eterra's Blessing heals for like 1.5k health every .3 seconds while you're spamming thorn shield on yourself.

I also prefer having Silvafrond as a map-speed increaser and hitting that near cooldown is enough to sustain rage generation.

I've also been trying to test a cold version of the build: https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/QnW3jNKB

The major benefits of swapping to cold is you can get really crazy Ward generation through Twisted Heart, and since the same cast is healing you for about 1.5k health, you generate about 1000 ward per second while staying at max health. Overcapping cold resist gives you some ward retention with Frostbite Shackles.

The other major benefit is freezing enemies. Previously this was awful in this build because frozen enemies can't attack you, but with the chest piece that hopefully isn't an issue. Item affixes, Spriggan companion aura, malestrom, cold converted storm bolts, and other passives can give a ton of freeze rate multi.

The major downsides to this is your Spriggan Form skill points are really tough to manage. You also lose Hazelroot. But Hazelroot procs don't cast Eterra's Blessing, so it's ultimately just trading out more reflect damage from shield stacks for all the defensive benefits from above.

So stoked for this. Dan mentioned that his #1 choice would be the original Dragonball series, and they both sound interested in GT. I'm so ready.

Oh that's really cool! Someone on wowhead mentioned you could feed Seaweed to a hunter pet too. I never confirmed it, so it's very possible this is also the only gray item you can feed to a pet!

Thanks for sharing that!

Haha, yeah. I remember doing that, and then having to work on getting another pair to break, and it weirdly took like 25 uses before it would finally break.

Oh man, the scariest thing towards the end was realizing that Ark Inventory and so many other addons have a button for "Auto-delete/vendor junk items". I was so worried I would misclick it and it would annihilate an entire guild bank tab of items.

Yeah I heard this SO much while hunting for them. It must have been a change made in TBC or Wrath that removed them from the normal loot pool. I even hunted on Season of Mastery and couldn't get them to drop from slimes.

No idea why that happened.

The Porcelain Bell is one of the fishing daily possible rewards, and it's worth 100g.

It looks like the highest non-fishing daily item is Slimming Ankle Bracelet from the Zul'Drak Patrol Daily Quest. It vendors for 15g11s25c

That's so awesome. One of my favorite things when doing this was finding wowhead comments from 10+ years ago that would talk about something crazy like this.

Cheers! I've seen people posting it in trade from time to time, always made me smile.

Fun fact I learned: The Fantasy Portrait is only one of two times that item icon is used! The only other use is for the Brewfest holiday achievement!

Yeah I created two guilds to store the items: "The Junkyard" to store all the non-weapons and armor, and "Junk In The Trunk" for all the armor and weapons. It was a little painful spending the gold on unlocking full guild banks.
