4h05 to empowered - Last Epoch Speedrun

[@adamburke5397]

i read the title as 4h to monoliths, not empowered. wasnt impressed. skipped to the end and saw you get to empowered and my jaw dropped

[@TRiceTheEffort]

I remember my first attempt at an empowered% being 7+ hours long and that was in the op lich era. Congrats on the 4:05!

[@Terek_LE]

Thanks for the kind words, mine was 7h+ too, I honestly didn't think sub 4h was possible back then haha

[@xomabg]

Good job man 👏

[@gotznocents4120]

Great idea for a video, sub earned!!!

[@Terek_LE]

Thank you!

[@MrSkeezymak]

excellent profile picture sir

[@luismiguelcostaperestrelo1164]

Hey Terek, awesome video! Learned a lot. After getting to empowered, what's the first thing you try to do afterwards? When trying to be efficient

[@oliviercyber]

I don't know if is it possible anymore. In the patch note 1.0 : remove exp bonus from monolith for characters level under lvl50 and bad nerf to shadow dagger. Terek, qu'en penses tu ? :)

[@zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz__]

what are the sidequests you did while running? I can see the ones you did after chapter 5 easily, but Im curious what you did during the run. Evacuation I'm assuming, anything else?

[@Slipknot4L1F3]

how are your loading times between zones so fast? i have to wait like a couple of seconds until i can get the loading screen

[@Terek_LE]

In offline, the loading times are very fast!

[@zlayge]

Great run ! Can you explain how did you survive at 56:10 ? I'm new so i'm not aware of all the interactions, I just saw 0 HP and wondered how

[@Terek_LE]

It's a bug in offline where you can't die until you reload the game. It happens randomly, it's very annoying

[@zlayge]

@@Terek_LE Oh😅, that's weird Thank you for the clarification and GL on the start !

[@ThisJac]

amazing man, congrats for thats

[@tunakx]

Nice run! Is Frostclaw with Runemaster a good way to get to empowered quickly as well? It's defenses are top tier where you can just stand still but not sure about damage.

[@Terek_LE]

Yes it is, if you build into frostbite you are going to have good damage in monos. Not as fast as Rogue but you can power through the echoes with ease

[@tunakx]

@@Terek_LE Thanks for the answer, what about ignite frostclaw with Glyph since you won't have access to Snowdrift or Shackles at league start.

[@Terek_LE]

@@tunakx Frostbite is way more dmg. You take the node in the runemaster passive tree that converts armour shred to frostbite. No need for uniques but having frostbite cold pen and chance to apply frostbite with cold skills on your body armor and helmet will be insane for damage. You also want to use an ice axe to get armor shred on it. You can also get it on the gloves and amulet. Get increased elemental damage over time everywhere or cold/element damage.

[@tunakx]

@@Terek_LE Thanks, wasn't sure about it without uniques since only body helmet affixes and shred would work but ignite also has body and helmet affixes + chill is converted. I guess I will try both see which one would be easier. Thanks again, the run was also pretty insigtful but I will probably do the until Majelka because of factions.

[@963andrei]

How did you get 14 passive points without doing the quest "a study in time" in ch 4?

[@eri_ck9260]

Hey man! Any tips on timeline 1 when I am around level 29-30, do you take more time at your first monos to level? I seem to die like 2-3 times at the beginning, losing out on rewards..

[@Terek_LE]

It's def challenging, my only advice would be to try to maximize you gear with the crafting resources/gold you have available. Otherwise it's a lot on game/monster knowledge in order to avoid getting hit.

[@eri_ck9260]

@@Terek_LE do you think its worth dying a couple times, because leveling in monos is a lot faster anyways and if I feel weak, just try leveling up in the first 3-4 monos I do, or just do campaign?

[@stephanojenkins7636]

Love the video! I'm new to rogue and trying to understand how the build works past level 50. How do you choose when to cast synchronized strike vs umbral blades? It looks like at lower levels you keep spamming umbral blades and sometimes press synchronized strike, but by the end you're spamming synchronized strike and only sometimes use umbral blades

[@link741]

you never use umbral, umbral trigger with dash, just keep dashing and use sync strike in big enimies

[@whitehood1e]

Great run! Is campaign loot filter you've shared in the comments above universal to each class or is it just good for your character?

[@Terek_LE]

It's only for this specific build

[@beyondplan2693]

So after this you just run 1 Temporal Sanctum key to fully complete your passive points + idol slots (skip campaign)?

[@beyondplan2693]

I've been following this speedrun and after reaching Empowered, I'm wondering what do you do to unlock final idol slots?

[@Terek_LE]

@@beyondplan2693 you do the temporal sanctum dungeon to skip to ch9 and get the remaining passive points and Idol slots with side quests there

[@beyondplan2693]

Thanks @@Terek_LE

[@rul8734]

Amazing , could you share the lvling filters pls

[@Catanic]

Wouldn't this be under 4 hours if you cut all the loading time?

[@Terek_LE]

Yep

[@jonath102]

So if i wanna maximise leveling time at 1.0 launch, should i grind levels in monos has early as possible, get passive and idols from side quest. Than comeback later and skip the campaign with the Dungeon skip ( or should i even bother with campaign ? ) , is this the optimal way ? if not let me know

[@Terek_LE]

this is the most optimal way, now can your build do it is the true question lol. Otherwise just go into monolith later, once your build can handle it.

[@babyninjajesus2669]

could you do this with nova hammerdin sentinel? less about the speed but more about going straight to lv 58 map areas when you hit it at lvl 28~

[@preheet]

Grats on the run Terek! Quebecois? 😄

[@ericwilliams3770]

Any chance of you doing a hard core speed run? That would be really fun to watch

[@Terek_LE]

Not anytime soon, but a few weeks after release, why not :D

[@MikkiZHskDK]

amazing video, any chance you can chare your loot filter :o

[@klusell7014]

Thx

[@xGR1MxREAPERx]

Why didn’t you get all your idol and passive quests? You said you said you had all of them? But you are still missing 4 quests for idols and 1 for passives? Why didn’t you get them all

[@Terek_LE]

You get them in ch9 after doing the temporal sanctum dungeon. This dungeon allows you to skip directly to ch9

[@xGR1MxREAPERx]

@@Terek_LE ohh okay. Sorry a little new to the game. Thanks for info.

[@ajrowe5845]

1:50:50:50 Lvl 50 is pretty cool! 😂

[@MrBa143]

did they change the story. This looks so much different than when i last played a year ago

[@wotruannwah5678]

Yeah, i think theyre changing it more once 1.0 drops tomorrow

[@VitchAndVorty]

1st act is no longer dealing with void? That's a huge overhaul.

[@Terek_LE]

Chapter 1 never had void damage, but they did revamp it completely not long ago. Maybe you are thinking of chapter 2 and 3 in the ruined era :D

[@NeIix]

I cant load the build? I guess Im dumb 😀

[@mariusz3k27rax8]

Thank god capaing is pretty short. Im used to 6-8h of poe campaign

[@marcomeerts3041]

I don't get it, can you skip part of the campaign? I cant remember it being that fast and I feel like I miss some of the stuff I usually see during the campaign

[@xttsnty]

He started doing monoliths at lvl 27, you can enter there as soon you unlock it through campaign.

[@BlackbeardKNAC]

I made my first ever LE character (thorns shaman) and I must have screwed something up cause you do more damage at 30 than I do at 93

[@Terek_LE]

This build certainly excel in early damage, there are very few builds that do as much damage this early! Also, you have reduced damage the further you go, as well as echoes modifiers that makes monsters tankier. So with this exact same character, I'd do way less dmg in level 100 areas for exemple.

[@John-il4mp]

Dosnt make sense lol at level 100 you should do more dammage than him, the game is broken if it work like this.

[@babyninjajesus2669]

@@John-il4mp instead of the numbers getting bigger because the health pools get bigger, Damage reduction gets bigger instead causing your numbers to go down, if both characters hit a dummy the 93 would do way more because the dummy has no damage reduction
