Bosses in Path of Exile 2 are generally difficult, and the most difficult ones are the 4 final bosses in the endgame. The rewards of these bosses are also very generous. They will drop some precious unique items, which are very helpful for players’ builds.

Xesht, We Who Are One is the final boss of Breach activity. Its drops Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps are very useful for the top builds of Rangers and Monks in Path of Exile 2.

How To Find Xesht, We Who Are One?

If you want to find the final boss of the Breach activity, Xesht, We Who Are One, a Breachstone is essential. Breachstone is very rare. If you want to collect Breachstone, you can basically only rely on stacking Breach Splinters in your backpack. 300 Breach Splinters can be synthesized into one Breach Splinters. In addition, you can also exchange Breach Splinters or Breachstones with other players through POE 2 Currency in Currency Exchange.

After you get a Breachstone, you need to put your stone into Realmgate, and then you can enter Twisted Domain, which is also the area where Xesht, We Who Are One is active.

Of course, after entering Twisted Domain, players will not encounter the boss at the beginning. You will encounter a long battle. Many monsters are waiting for you along the way, and you will have a timer. When the timer reaches the end, you will fail. Killing monsters can replenish the time of the timer.

When you break through the monster blockade and come to the end of the road, you will see a bridge here. Only when Breach circle passes through Xesht can you officially start this boss battle.

The following suggestions may help you:

• Stand in a relatively safe place at the edge of Breach circle and knock down the monsters inside.
• Use AOE skills to clear monsters quickly .
• Before you go to Breach, get familiar with the terrain first.

Since there are a lot of monsters in Breach, it is also a good place to swipe for currency. You can add affixes to your Waystones that increase the amount of drops.

How To Defeat Xesht?

First, let’s take a look at the weaknesses of this boss:

• Light Fire Resistance
• Light Cold Resistance
• Light Lightning Resistance

Xesht, We Who Are One is resistant to all three elements. If you want to cause elemental damage to it, you must first break its elemental resistance. Of course, a better way is to use physical damage or chaos damage to deal with it.

Avoid Xesht, We Who Are One’s attacks:

• Xesht, We Who Are One moves slowly, but its attacks are very deadly. It will say some lines before releasing some attacks:
• She of Winter’s Envy: A ghost appears and shoots a series of icicles at you.
• The abyss knocks once... and is answered by four (Within our grasp): The boss generates many large hands and slams you, causing chaos damage.
• Run: The boss dives underground and then pops out, swooping at you with its claws. Then it stands up and unleashes chaos attacks on both sides.
• Fate belies truth: Sends a straight wave at you, dealing chaos damage to you.
• Thought by thought... destiny unwinds (We watch, we wait, we dream): Spawns a ghostly hand that moves with you, then smashes down.

Xesht, We Who Are One moves slowly and has clear attack signals, which makes it not very hard for players to dodge its attacks. Each of Xesht, We Who Are One’s attacks is very deadly, and there are many large-scale attacks. Players need to observe its range and timing carefully. In fact, many of its moves leave an outline on the ground before they are released. You need to pay attention to these attacks.

Xesht’s most powerful attack is the straight-line attack after saying Fate belies truth. This attack takes a short time to charge. You can output damage as much as possible at this time.

In addition, most of Xesht, We Who Are One’s attacks will cause chaos damage, so you can do some targeted defense based on this.

Loot

Xesht, We Who Are One is one of the four final bosses, and the rewards are very generous. In addition to some currency, players can also get a Book of Knowledge. This item can improve Breach passive skill tree.

Here are some of the unique items that drop from Xesht, We Who Are One:

• Beyond Reach Visceral Quiver: Quiver
• Choir of the Storm Jade Amulet: Amulet
• Controlled Metamorphosis Diamond: Jewel
• Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps: Gloves
• Skin of the Loyal Garment: Body Armor
• The Pandemonius Lapis Amulet: Amulet
• Xoph’s Blood Amber Amulet: Amulet

The bonuses provided by the items dropped from Xesht, We Who Are One are very good, and Beyond Reach Visceral Quiver and Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps are both very suitable for rangers. The other items are also very powerful in builds. Breach is a high-risk and high-reward activity, and Xesht, We Who Are One may be the biggest difficulty. If you feel that you cannot defeat Xesht, you can also find helpers to defeat this boss with you.

The long-awaited TOTY players for FUT 25 have finally been revealed, and you can watch all the players in the trailer. TOTY players represent the best players in each position in 2024. They are definitely some of the most powerful cards in the game. They are rated at unprecedented levels, with some players even scoring up to 97 points!

These cards are definitely some of the best cards to get this year. Of course, for most players, you don’t have that many FC 25 coins, so it’s not realistic to get all TOTY players, so you can only choose the better ones. So here is TOTY player ranking.

No.11: Emiliano Martínez

• Overall rating: 94
• Position: Goalkeeper
• Club: Aston Villa

Emiliano Martínez is the lowest rated card in this TOTY promotion, but that doesn’t mean he’s not good enough. Emiliano Martínez is definitely the best goalkeeper in 2024. When he was in Argentina and Aston Villa, his performance can be called the team’s last shield.

Although he did not win honors in the club, he helped his team win Copa America, and he was selected as TOTY.

No.10: Alejandro Grimaldo

• Overall rating: 94
• Position: Left Back
• Club: Bayer Leverkusen

Alejandro Grimaldo is a national treasure player in Spain. He helped Bayer Leverkusen win Bundesliga championship with a perfect record in 2024. Later, Bayer Leverkusen reached UEFA Europa League final, where Alejandro Grimaldo encountered the first defeat of the 2023-2024 season, but Alejandro Grimaldo still did his best in the game, whether it was offense or defense, it was almost impeccable.

Alejandro Grimaldo gets a 94 rating in TOTY, making him a great left-back for your team.

No.9: Dani Carvajal

• Overall rating: 94
• Position: Right Back
• Club: Real Madrid

Dani Carvajal is perhaps the best player in TOTY in 2024. He has won many tournaments, and you can see him in the winning teams of La Liga, UEFA Champions League and Euro 2024. Dani Carvajal has not disappointed either in club or international competitions, and he has shown his strength for Real Madrid and Spain.

He also scored 94 in TOTY, so you can trust Dani Carvajal with the defensive duties of your team.

No.8: William Saliba

• Overall rating: 95
• Position: Center Back
• Club: Arsenal

William Saliba is the central defender of Arsenal and can be regarded as the backbone of the team. Although Arsenal did not achieve very good results last year, Arsenal is only one step away from Premier League championship. And this team is also one of the top four in Champions League.

Because Arsenal did not win the championship in the 2024 season, William Saliba is still controversial in TOTY eleven, but in any case, his score of 95 represents that this is a rare card.

No.7: Cole Palmer

• Overall rating: 95
• Position: Central Attacking Midfielder
• Club: Chelsea

Cole Palmer performed very well in the 2023-2024 season, and his number of goals and assists ranked second. This young man is famous for his skills on the court. Other youth players can hardly reach the level of Cole Palmer.

Cole Palmer has a 95 rating in FIFA 25 TOTY and will be a deadly attacking midfielder on the field. If the opponent can’t stop him, then there is no way to stop your team from scoring goals.

No.6: Virgil Van Dijk

• Overall rating: 96
• Position: Centre Back
• Club: Liverpool

Virgil Van Dijk has become more and more experienced as he grows older. His defensive experience has made him a mainstay of Liverpool and Dutch national team. Although his team did not have many victories in the past season, he scored the winning goal in EFL Cup final, proving his importance on the team.

Virgil Van Dijk is a very good defensive player with a very strong physique. TOTY gives him a score of 96. With this card, your opponent will have to work hard on offense if they want to score.

No.5: Mohamed Salah

• Overall rating: 96
• Position: Right wing
• Club: Liverpool

Mohamed Salah is also a player from Liverpool. This Egyptian player has been absolutely dominant in his past performances. He is the best passer of Merseyside-based club. Whether it is attacking or assisting, he is handy.

In TOTY of EA Sports FC 25, this player received an overall score of 96. As long as he stands on the right wing, he can create a variety of passing and scoring opportunities.

No.4: Kylian Mbappé

• Overall rating: 96
• Position: Striker
• Club: Real Madrid

Kylian Mbappé has performed very well in the past few years and is undoubtedly a star player. He has contributed many goals for French national team and Paris Saint-Germain. And he joined Real Madrid in the summer transfer window of 2024, fulfilling his childhood dream. Although his performance was not very good when he just joined Real Madrid, he gradually became outstanding after a period of running-in.

Kylian Mbappé got a total score of 96 points, which means that he is a very dangerous striker who can bring enough pressure to the opponent. If your team lacks an attacker who can play a key role, it is recommended that you use some FUT 25 Coins to unlock him. If your defense is not strong enough, then pray that you don’t encounter this card on the opponent.

No.3: Rodri

• Overall rating: 97
• Position: Central Defending Midfielder
• Club: Manchester City

Rodri is the backbone of Spanish team and Manchester City. His performance in 2024 was very dazzling. Premier League championship and 2024 European Cup championship were both in his pocket. After his injury, Manchester City was almost struggling, which was enough to show his importance. Rodri is also the current winner of Golden Ball.

Rodri’s excellent performance earned the player a high score of 97 points in TOTY. Rodri is good at defense and always creates counterattack opportunities.

No.2: Jude Bellingham

• Overall rating: 97
• Position: Central Attacking Midfielder
• Club: Real Madrid

This is another player from Real Madrid. Real Madrid’s good results are not just based on one player, but every player on this team is excellent.

Jude Bellingham played a key role in both Premier League and Champions League. His data on the field is much better than other central attacking midfielders. With Jude Bellingham, your midfield will change terribly.

No.1: Vini Jr.

• Overall rating: 97
• Position: Left Wing
• Club: Real Madrid

This Brazilian player is the real killer of Real Madrid. It was he who led his team to win Champions League. Many people think that he should be the real winner of Golden Ball. He has incredible dribbling ability and can easily pass the opponent’s defensive players.

With a total score of 97, Vini Jr. will become an almost unstoppable left winger in EA Sports FC 25 in the next few months.

The above are the eleven outstanding players in TOTY this time. Each one of them can bring a very big increase to your team. They will be officially unlocked after a period of time. Prepare your coins and don’t miss this opportunity!

EA FC 25 brought big news to fans at the beginning of the new year, and the Team of the Year kicked off this year. In this voting event, players from football clubs with better performances in men’s and women’s football will compete fiercely.

Among the many selected players, Kylian Mbappe can be said to be a big name in the football world. His selection into this Team of the Year also adds to his brilliant historical achievements. The talented striker spent an unforgettable personal season at PSG for all fans.

But it is a fact that he failed to lead French team to win EURO championship and his unstable state this year is also a fact witnessed by fans. Fans are also skeptical about whether Kylian Mbappe can be selected as TOTY attacker this year.

Mbappe has been a regular guest in TOTY since FIFA 19 and this year may face an enormous challenge for him. This challenge comes not only from his teammates in the same club as him but also from players who performed well last year.

Kylian Mbappe’s 2025 TOTY Is In Jeopardy

EA has confirmed that TOTY will officially begin on January 7, 2025. The voting will last about a week and will end on January 12, 2025. Because the voting process is very short, players must vote as soon as possible.

The way to vote is to go to EA’s official website, where you can see TOTY selection for the men’s and women’s football games on the relevant pages. Although the lineup is already determined to be 4-1-2-3, the players in each position are still waiting for players to choose from the nominations.

In the field of virtual football, Kylian Mbappe is still a superstar in the game as FC 25 Player, and fans need to consume huge FC 25 Coins to get him. In addition, he also has a 91-rated base item that fans love. His special edition card sold for millions of dollars on the transfer market.

So a spot in EA FC 25 TOTY might boost his status even further. However, this year’s competition is unimaginably fierce, with many elite players participating in the competition. This may be the first time that he has missed the final lineup of TOTY.

Kylian Mbappe has played 25 games for Real Madrid this season and contributed 18 wonderful goal moments. Although this is a commendable number, it is too few compared to the 54 goals he contributed in 48 games last season.

In addition, he also performed mediocrely in this year’s EURO competition, contributing only two goals for the team. The team also missed the opportunity to win the championship last year. All the above show that Mbappe’s state this year is not good, which may have a significant negative impact on his competition for 2025 TOTY.

Kylian Mbappe’s Road To Being Selected For 2025 TOTY Is Full Of Competitors

2025 TOTY is another place full of excellent players. Whether it is the popular players who are selected every year, or the new star players who are selected because of their outstanding performance this year, it can be said that there are many experts gathered here. Therefore, combined with Kylian Mbappe’s unremarkable performance this year, this year’s selection may be a very severe test for him.

First up is Vinicius Junior, his teammate from the same club. The young player has been well-liked by fans for his outstanding performance this season. Some fans even publicly commented in the community to celebrate his nomination and support his selection, believing that he always scores at key moments of the game and is an indispensable player in Real Madrid.

Vinicius Junior also received high scores in Ballon d’Or voting last year and won FIFA Best Player award. Such an excellent and young player will be an enormous threat in this year’s competition.

The competition for the remaining TOTY attackers is also heating up, and several players with excellent results have become the focus of fans. Lautaro Martinez, a player from Inter, had a very outstanding performance and became Serie A’s top scorer, while also celebrating Copa America victory with Argentina. In addition, Manchester City player Erling Haaland continues to impress fans with his incredible number of goals this season.

Similarly, Mohamed Salah, a player from Liverpool, also won the honor of the best attacker of the season this year, helping the team reach the top of Premier League. Rising star player Lamine Yamal from FC Barcelona has also been in the news for helping Spain secure EURO-winning title. He is currently the leader in assists for La Liga.

All the above players pose a serious threat to Mbappe’s inclusion in EA FC 25 TOTY, as each of them has excellent reasons for inclusion. However, the final result is still based on the players’ votes, so the extremely popular Kylian Mbappe still has the opportunity to join this team full of powerful players.

World of Warcraft has been around for 20 years, and the added professions and races around the storyline have also enriched the content of the entire game and established more wonderful legends around the storyline. And WoW Classic 20th Anniversary is a new special version.

World of Warcraft has always been the only choice for many players when choosing between MMOs and RPGs. Different classes have many races to choose from, depending on the character’s talents and equipment.

Hunter has been around since the beginning of the game, is widely loved, and has become one of the most popular professions for DPS classes in the game.

As Hunter is good at ranged or melee DPS, many players will want to choose this profession, but not all races are suitable for it. Some of the races have skills that can make Hunter play a better role.

And because Hunter can use almost any skill, a class like Hunter has many races to choose from when it is created, but different races have different advantages and disadvantages when choosing Hunter.

Here are 12 races that are best suited for Hunter, to help you create a better character before the game starts.

1. Highmountain Tauren

Highmountain Tauren is a group of nomads wearing armor and majestic, who not only have Hunter abilities but also Hunter temperament. Their story and world are very suitable for choosing this class, and players like to start their game journey by getting the classic eagle pet.

As Hunters, they have Bull Rush racial ability to close on enemies, great look and lore. Bull Rush racial ability is one of the skills that can close to the enemy the fastest in WoW Classic. This is undoubtedly a good advantage for Hunter.

In addition, Mountaineering passive ability also helps Hunter to use proficient skills in different fields, increasing its versatility.

2. Forsaken

Also known as Undead, it has been one of the core races since RTS games, and is one of the eight races that have existed since the game first came out. The leader of this race is a Ranger, but it is actually a Hunter in essence, but it is open to Hunters starting from Cataclysm expansion.

It not only has some unique skills, including Will of Forsaken and Cannibalize, which can break mind control effects, giving you more bag space and faster levelling.

Of course, you can also increase your bag space through WoW Classic 20th Anniversary Gold reward after completing the task to help you store more consumables.

In addition, it also has Unending Breath and an increase in resistance to Shadow Damage, which are natural abilities related to their damaged life status. It plays an important role in your game upgrade.

And if you choose this race as a Hunter, Will of Forsaken in this race can be combined with Hunter’s unique skill Feign Death, which will provide you with better battle plans and escape routes when you encounter danger and need to escape urgently.

3. Dark Iron Dwarf

It is a race of Dwarves, and they have the racial traits of Fire Blood. Therefore, its special skill is Fire Blood, which can remove bleeds, poisons, and magical debuffs, allowing you to last longer in battle.

Debuffs are very deadly to any class, and it will make you more vulnerable. But the special skill of this race can increase the main attribute according to your healing debuffs, which is especially important for Hunter because it can increase your combat time.

At this time, if you are a Hunter of Dark Iron Dwarf, you can use Fire Blood before a series of attacks from the enemy, giving you more opportunities to cause damage to the enemy. 

4. Mag’har Orc

The special skills of this race include Ancestral Call, Open Skies, Sympathetic Vigor, Savage Blood. 

It is one of Allied races. These Orcs are not contaminated by demon blood and live in a relatively peaceful Outland. This means that you must complete the corresponding quests to gain their friendship, and this quest journey begins at Orgrimmar Embassy.

Sympathetic Vigor is a passive skill that helps your character pet increase health, which is one of the rare class-specific buffs. Ancestral Call can help you call upon the power of your ancestors.

If you are a Mag’har Orc Hunter, you can also use Open Skies skill to increase your speed and the speed of your mount, while Savage Blood can help you reduce the damage of poison, diseases, or curses.

5. Dwarf

Its skills include Boosted critical hit damage and Stone Flesh, which can help you fight longer.

As we all know, Hunter’s main damage is focused on hitting critical strikes, and being a Dwarf can help you boost critical hit damage. In addition, Dwarf has a lot of lore and history in Azeroth, which makes Dwarf a perfect race for Hunter.

In addition, for Hunter, not being able to leave the battle in time is very deadly. If you are a Dwarf, then fortunately, you can use Stone Flesh to eliminate poison and other negative effects, leave the battle in time, and replenish health.

6. Worgen

Worgen is an interesting race. They look very similar to werewolves that walk upright, and their appearance alone makes them a good choice for Hunters, not to mention the great lore behind them.

Worgen has an excellent hunting perk and ability in the game, which is Darkflight. This racial ability allows you to increase your movement speed by 40% for 10 seconds.

This makes it difficult for prey to escape from you, or for enemies to catch you when you need to retreat from a dangerous battle. In addition to this, its other skill is Leatherworkers, which allows you to deal with a greater chance of critical hits to enemies during combat to help you kill them more easily.

7. Troll

Troll is also a Horde with a long history in Azeroth. An essential skill for Hunters is kiting.

Hunters need to be ready to move quickly during combat, especially in PVP situations. If you are trapped and cannot move quickly at this time, then you are declared dead.

If you are a Hunter of Troll race at this time, then congratulations, you can use Da Voodoo Shuffle skill to help you reduce the damage time that prevents you from moving.

In addition, you can also use Berserking to help you increase your movement speed, giving you a better chance to launch a series of attacks when retreating and leaving, making it easier to kill the enemy.

8. Gnome

Gnome used to appear in the game as Mages and Warlocks, and is a race of Alliance magic users. But now they have grown and can launch DPS as Hunter.

Its Escape Artist skill is one of the best racial gains in wow classic, which allows players to escape tarps and all skill effects that limit movement speed.

Similarly, with its Engineering Specialization skill, Hunter can also get a buff, Expansive Mind helps the character have better attributes, and Nimble Fingers can improve your Haste attribute to achieve the effect of increasing DPS.

9. Orc

Orc is one of the main tribal factions in WoW Classic. Orcs are a race born for fighting and are very suitable for Hunter class.

Its Hardiness skill can reduce the duration of the effect of being stunned in the game, and has a very powerful hunting attribute, which allows you to increase the damage to the enemy as much as possible in battle. Not only that, its Command skill can also increase pet DPS, helping you upgrade your character faster.

10. Night Elves

They call themselves Kaldorei, and may be the only indigenous race in ancient Azeroth besides Trolls. Although they refuse to use Arcane magic, they are notorious Hunters in history.

It has skills such as Shadowmeld and Touch of Elune. Shadowmeld skill is just as its name, which can make the player disappear, and Touch of Elune can provide you with additional acceleration and critical hits, as well as additional resistance to natural damage.

In addition, it has advantages that other elves do not have. That is, in Teldrassil, its own upgrade area, you can find Stygian Owl, which is one of the best Pets in the game and a Pet with speed and damage enhancement effects.

11. Human

For novice players, choosing Human to start the game journey may be the easiest way. Because Human not only have the best land and legendary resources in Azeroth but also have unique skill attributes: Will To Survive and Human Spirit.

Will To Survive allows players to get rid of stun effects and can actively exit the battle without negative effects. And Human Spirit can improve all the secondary attributes of your character. Both skills are the reasons why you can consider Human race as a Hunter.

12. Blood Elf

Blood Elf is also one of the excellent Hunter choices. In terms of Horde, they are one of the best races in this role.

It has the active racial trait Arcane Torrent, which can be used to remove the beneficial effects of enemies within the range, increase Arcane resistance, and can also restore resources according to your class specialization. Help you become a better Hunter and win the battle.

The above is an introduction to the 12 best races that Hunter class can choose. If you have a special liking for Hunter class, then try it out now!

Path of Exile has been loved by many players since its release, and the discussion about its sequel Path of Exile 2 has also been high. However, the official recently stated that POE 2, which was originally scheduled to be released in November, will be delayed. Some players speculate that the delay may be because the official needs to complete the account merger before the release of POE 2.

The game officials said that they will continue to support POE 1 after the release of POE 2, and run independent leagues for the two games in stages, and they hope to make micro-transactions work in the original PoE and PoE 2. To do this, a large number of account systems need to be integrated, and these server-side infrastructure work will take longer than originally expected.

According to the official news released on November 12, 2024, they will make some changes to the account system to support cross-platform games and shared micro-transactions between POE 1 and POE 2 platforms.

At that time, you may be able to sell your items in POE 1 through the micro-transaction system to obtain POE2 Currency. Of course, this is just speculation, and the specific situation needs to be confirmed after POE 2 is officially released.

What Are The Specific Changes In This Account Adjustment?

Discriminators

In the past, due to the large number of accounts, new players may have to try many times to get an unoccupied account name when registering an account.

This time, the official plan is to merge accounts on all platforms into one account system, so they must deal with name conflicts. In order to solve this problem, the official added a Discriminators number at the end of each account name.

With this new change, there will be a number behind the account to distinguish them. This is like the Battlenet account of Diablo 4 players. Multiple players can use a username at the same time, which will make it easier for new players to register accounts.

Merge Multi-platform Sub-accounts

POE supports players to merge different accounts previously created on different platforms such as console platforms and PC. After merging your accounts, both sub-accounts will still exist, and you can find the account selection box at the top of the character selection screen on the login interface, where you can select the account you are currently using.

Please note that you can only merge one account created from each platform, and you cannot merge multiple accounts created on the same platform into a single account.

Micro-transaction Are Still Associated With A Single Sub-account

Micro-transaction information on different accounts is still associated with the corresponding single sub-account. However, if you have micro-transaction records on different platforms, you can contact the relevant personnel to help you merge them all into a single sub-account.

What Should You Pay Attention To About This Account Change?

Transactions Made On The PlayStation Platform Are Not Interoperable With Other Platforms

Transactions made on the PlayStation platform cannot be used on other platforms, and correspondingly, transactions made on other platforms cannot be used on the PlayStation platform. These transactions can still be made on the same sub-account, but when you view them, you will find that the micro-transactions will be marked as unavailable.

POE 1 Does Not Support Cross-platform Play

While Path of Exile 2 can allow you to use your characters on all platforms, this is not possible for characters in POE 1. You can share the same POE 1 account on console and PC, but characters will not be shared because POE 1 does not support cross-platform play.

Be Careful When Merging Accounts

Be careful when linking accounts. If you accidentally merge the wrong accounts, please contact customer service to help you cancel the account merge.

In addition, if one of your accounts is muted or banned, this will affect all your linked accounts.

The above is some basic information about the account adjustment of Path of Exile. The delay of Path of Exile 2 is frustrating, but I believe that players will get a better gaming experience after the official account system merger is completed. While waiting for PoE 2 to arrive, you can also try other excellent games to kill time, such as Diablo 4.

In this guide, we’ll dive into the tips for upgrading your Crafting Skill Lines in Elder Scrolls Online. There’s no better time to dive into it than during Zeal of Zenithar! Get ready to master Crafting Skill and really reap the 100% Inspiration boost for your new crafting character!

Take Advantage Of Loadouts

Each character starts out with 2 free empty loadouts at Armory Station, take advantage of this extra gear and either have a loadout dedicated to crafting or leave one empty so you can change to a blank build for free.

Leaving an empty loadout can be a big help when you're short on Skill Points early on, so you can fully upgrade one craft at a time and re-target your points as needed to help you save a lot on ESO Gold costs.

Skill Points provided in the late game are enough to easily unlock everything eventually, so you don’t need to split up your crafts with multiple characters. In fact, if you plan on collecting Motif books and completing Master Writs, it can be more beneficial to keep a dedicated crafting character.

Boost Your Inspiration

Inspiration refers to the experience gained from crafting. You can gain Inspiration by breaking things down, crafting items, researching traits on weapons and armor, discovering consumable traits, and completing Writs.

Zeal of Zenithar’s 100% Inspiration Boost will give you an immense advantage while it’s active. If you have any CP points available, be sure to put some into Inspiration Boost Passive to get up to another 30%.

On top of this, ESO Plus Members also include a 10% Inspiration Boost in their subscription, and characters who are Orcs will benefit from another 10% Inspiration Boost. Regular XP boosts don’t affect Inspiration, though.

Meticulous Disassembly

Another CP skill you can benefit from if you have the points is Meticulous Disassembly, which will generate more materials from all the gear you’ll be breaking down to upgrade.

ESO Plus Members will have an easier time crafting as they have bag space where they can store materials, but you can strategically use the bank and alternate character’s inventory to organize your crafting materials.

Upgrading Crafts

Now, let’s look at each craft and how to upgrade them!

Alchemy Upgrades

Alchemy is upgraded by crafting Potions and Poisons. The higher the rank of a crafted Potions, the more valuable it is, and this is the easiest tree to upgrade if you have enough materials. If you don’t have a craft bag, then you’ll need to spend more time farming Alchemy Reagents and Solvents, combining them in bulk until you reach the next rank of Solvent Proficiency Passive.

Once you’ve leveled up your skill, use the next level of Solvents and continue the process until you reach rank 50. Certain levels of Solvents are harder to find, so just keep using the highest level Solvents you have or can find.

Note that always use Reagents that are not used in any important Potions and Poisons to ensure you don’t waste Ingredients that you can sell or use later. It’s worth noting that crafting with 3 flowers gives the same XP bonus as 2 flowers, so don’t waste your materials!

If you plan to use your character as a primary crafter, take the time to learn traits while leveling, as characters that complete Daily Crafting Writs require limited trait knowledge.

Provisioning Upgrades

Upgrading Provisioning is second only to Alchemy in terms of difficulty and is very similar overall. You need Ingredients and Recipes to cook. At Guild Traders you can find Ingredients you need, and Chef and Brewer NPCs also sell basic Recipes.

When you reach the threshold to upgrade your Recipe Improvement Passive, its inventory will be updated to include level matched recipes, which are the recipes you need to complete Daily Writs, but you can also use them to upgrade Provisioning.

Upgrading your Recipe Improvement Passive as you level, and cooking the highest level of food, will give you more Inspiration.

Enchanting Upgrades

The final consumable crafting discipline is Enchanting. This discipline takes much longer to level up than the other two, as Enchanting is primarily leveled by deconstructing glyphs.

If you have friends or guild mates who also want to level up this skill tree, you can trade crafted glyphs together to speed up the leveling process. Glyphs crafted by other players will give you extra Inspiration, and the higher the level, the higher the quality of the deconstructed glyphs, making your gains even better.

You can even find a crafter who will craft glyphs with your materials, or just get crafted glyphs from Guild Traders.

If you don’t want to find someone to craft with, you can always go to XP farms like Zombie Beach to get trash glyphs for deconstruction.

You can also learn rune traits by crafting glyphs, which will increase Inspiration Boost at higher levels, so learning traits can be helpful in the final stages of the upgrade tree. But like Alchemy, this isn’t necessary unless you plan on doing Master Writs.

Equipment Crafting Upgrades

The last 4 equipment crafts (Woodworking, Blacksmithing, Clothing, and Jewelry Crafting) all upgrade in a very similar way, mostly through deconstruction, with the fastest way to upgrade being breaking down equipment with the intricate trait.

White quality intricate gear increases Inspiration by 280% when deconstructed. You’ll find intricate gear regularly as you complete content, but you can also get it directly from Guild Traders, and you’ll also receive intricate pieces regularly in Daily Writs.

As with other crafts, crafting items and completing Writs also grants Inspiration, and you can even deconstruct equipment you pick up as you level up.

How To Improve The Efficiency Of Trait Research?

Unlike consumable crafts, you can also upgrade equipment crafts by completing Research. When you research a trait, you’re actually deconstructing the item to extract the trait.

Research cooldown timer is different for each item, however. The first time you research an item, it takes 6 hours to complete the trait unlock. The time doubles for each trait after that, with the 9th trait taking 64 days without any boost.

With ESO Plus, however, the research time is reduced by 10%. But more importantly, mastering the passive skills in each craft tree reduces the timer and allows for simultaneous research.

If you have all passive skills and up to 3 research timers at once, the 9th trait will only take 30 days. If you research 3 items and then remove the research passives, the clock will continue to run for all 3 items but will revert to the longer timer.

The first few traits will not be greatly affected by the time reduction, but over time the difference will become very noticeable.

Therefore, it is recommended that you research the traits that are important to you first so that you can get them early and quickly. Master crafters and players who want to make their own gear will eventually want all the traits, but if you just want to research traits for use in transmutation, it is not necessary.

Hireling Mail

As mentioned above, crafting materials are obtained through deconstruction, but you can also use Hireling Passive to receive mail containing materials. Note that Alchemy and Jewelry do not have a Hireling option, but the other 5 crafts do.

You will receive Hireling Mail every 24 hours after the daily reset, but you can only receive it if you are logged in. So, if you are offline for a few days, you will only receive 1 day’s worth of mail. If your mailbox is full, you will still receive automatically generated mail, but not mail from other players.

Mail will now expire after 6 days, though, so be sure to claim it if you let it pile up. You will only receive Hireling Mail if a character with a passive skill signs in for the first time that day. If you have no Skill Points, you will not receive the mail and will not be prompted until the next day.

Keen Eye Passive

Besides mail and deconstruction, you can also pick up materials generated throughout the world. Keen Eye Passive works for all crafts except Provisioning, and it will make them easier to spot by giving them a glowing effect. But you can find Provisioning materials in lootable barrels, sacks, and crates in the world.

Also, about half of the materials you pick up from Resource Nodes are based on your character level, and the other half are based on how many points you have in the top passive skill in the crafting trees, but the passive level does not affect these drops.

Final Tips

Finally, on exiting, make sure you have research traits enabled, and if you have enough points, enable Hireling Passive. When deconstructing items, make sure you use Deconstruction Passive.

After learning all about them, I found that Jewelry and Enchanting are the hardest disciplines to max out, but the more gold you are willing to spend, or the more time you spend farming, the faster you will upgrade. You just have to make sure to deconstruct items instead of selling them when you upgrade. Anyway, hopefully these tips will help your crafter level up faster. Good luck!

Dear adventurers, hello everyone! We all know that you can meet other fellow adventurers through Community Convergence. Today I would like to introduce you to a long-time player who is passionate about the story of Aeternum - Newb World. He has been sharing his legends, guides, and unique community events with a wider audience of adventurers on his YouTube channel.

When he’s not updating material for series like New World, he’s also running daily missions, working toward top tier trophies, or posting whatever the mood strikes him. Let’s talk to Newb World about his story with New World.

While reading this interview, you can also choose to have New World Coins to complete the game process in New World faster and increase your character's abilities.

Meet New World For The First Time

Newb World recalled that New World itself found it interesting during the preview period. At first, he was just a game console player. When he got a relatively good computer, he took advantage of a New World discount to get this game, but he didn’t expect to become addicted to it.

He said that he has now played 2,000 hours of gameplay, but he still feels that he has not finished it yet. He looks forward to logging in every day and finds it easy to come up with video ideas.

The Beginning Of Creating A Channel

Talking about the beginning of Newb World channel, he said that he had never thought about creating this kind of content until he discovered that he really liked the game. He humbly said that he felt that he was not good enough to make a wonderful guide. So now he starts more with different small projects. For example, before the transmog was released, his videos would show the effect of each element on each weapon type.

Newb World bluntly stated that New World’s viewing data is much better than his other previous channels. He found his own joy in working on capturing footage, editing and experimenting with different content for over a year. His current goal is to create at least one video a week on his day off. He added that the positive comments in the community were the biggest motivation for my decision to stay and continue creating.

About Transmog’s Competition

When Transmog was released, Newb World held a competition with some random people. The fun and unique look these guys bring inspired Newb World to take video creation to the next level. He also said he would like to collaborate with some content creators he likes, which shows that he also needs to better integrate into the community.

He sincerely thanks DannehTV, itsGlaive, BDLG, TrickTrick, Goddess009, Savvvo, JoshsTip, and vXBlackSwanXv for participating in the competition.

From the time the idea for Transmog competition came up, Newb World built an enormous stage and judging system at home. He also needs to coordinate everyone’s schedule, receive all submissions, tally judges’ scores, and finally start editing. That sounds like a lot of work. He would also like to thank some people at Maramma who provided him with additional video footage.

He was proud to work with these guys and make such a great video together. He will never forget the emotions he felt with everyone and the entire community.

Story With New World

After the game showed the end of the main story quest (MSQ), Newb World realized that he was just rushing through the story in order to get through it faster. Sometimes he doesn’t remember what happened on Aeternum, so he wants to lead other adventurers in the community to dig deeper into the legend.

For his series, Newb World said he often needs to stop to avoid going too far. After he clears the level, he is always eager to go to the community and tell other adventurers, and wants to take them to explore other updated regional stories. What impressed him most was Ebonscale and Shattered Mountain.

Connection To New World

Since Newb World started this channel, he initially wanted to make the story more personal, so in the first episode he used the first person narrative. But then he felt something was not right, and now, in order to get a deeper understanding of the character’s heart, the story should be narrated in the third person.

Newb World gave us an example to show the importance of the third person. When he received Barkimedes’ Puppy as a reward for an Amrine Excavation quest, he thought about how it could fit into the character’s narrative. Because it was mentioned before that Jin-Jae gave the protagonist a house, Newb World naturally connected this puppy with the previous main plot.

Favorite Part Of New World

He said his favorite part was Isabella arc. Isabella is made more human after a recent update in which her backstory with Father Russo was fleshed out in the main story quest (MSQ).

When he first walked into the old version of the main story quest (MSQ), all he could think about was defeating her. But this time, he and some of the other adventurers began to empathize with her and feel sorry for her. “I can only imagine how much I will feel as I learn more about this legend.” he lamented.

We look forward to Newb World launching more New World stories and new series in the future, which we will focus on throughout the community integration. Thank you for your support and see you in the game.

In Diablo 4 Season 4: Loot Reborn, Necromancer class presents challenges, particularly in terms of survival, damage mitigation, and essence generation. However, with the right understanding, all of these things can become easier. Let's take a look at some key content that Necromancer players should be aware of in Diablo 4 Season 4!

Attack Speed

Achieving optimal attack speed is crucial, especially for minion-based builds aiming for a 100% attack speed threshold. While many players often prioritize the Aspect of Frenzied Dead, offering a substantial 68% boost, it's essential to understand the mechanics behind it. Every time your summoned minions deal damage to an enemy, they gain 23% attack speed, requiring 3 attacks to consistently stack this bonus to its maximum potential.

However, focusing solely on boosting minion attack speed can lead to a neglect of your own attack speed, which can affect your overall effectiveness in battle. To address this, consider incorporating attack speed bonuses into your gear. By strategically allocating attack speed on your gear and leveraging bonuses from Paragon Board and Tempering, you can ensure that both you and your minions benefit from increased attack speed.

Don't overlook the subtle yet significant 5% bonus hidden within the Flesh-eater node in Paragon Board. While seemingly modest, this bonus can make a noticeable difference, especially when combined with other sources of attack speed enhancement. By optimizing attack speed across your gear and skill allocations, you can maximize your damage output and efficiency in combat.

Damage Reduction

When it comes to damage reduction, pay special attention to skills and Paragon Boards. Take the Decrepify skill as an example. Many of us only invest a single point, providing a flat 20% damage reduction. However, by allocating additional points, you can increase this reduction to 24%. What makes Decrepify stand out is its consistent 12% reduction in damage, regardless of your proximity to enemies.

Additionally, Aspect of Hardened Bones is another valuable source of damage reduction. It provides increased damage reduction for both you and your minions, making it beneficial for any Necromancer build. Whether you're focusing on Infinitymist, Bone Spear or other builds, this aspect offers straightforward damage reduction.

While some may argue in favor of using the Blood Golem for its 30% damage reduction, it's essential to consider its triple damage aspect. The Blood Golem's triple damage output, combined with a 50% damage boost, offers a significant damage increase. Therefore, prioritizing aspects that enhance overall damage output may be more beneficial.

Moreover, players often overlook the bonuses available on the Paragon Board, such as the Darkness glyph. This glyph provides a 2% damage reduction per Shadow damage instance, up to 10%, making it particularly useful for Shadow Mages. Even without directly dealing Shadow damage, your minions can provide this damage reduction, offering additional protection.

Another strategy involves investing points in the Wither Paragon Board to gain a 10% damage reduction. By allocating points strategically and considering adjacent boards, you can maximize this damage reduction potential. Choosing the Territorial glyph offers a 10% damage reduction against nearby enemies, further enhancing survivability.

Resistances

Ensuring maximum resistance to all elements is essential for survivability, yet many Necromancers overlook this stat. Utilizing glyphs strategically is key to boosting resistance effectively. Prioritize glyphs like Darkness and Corporeal to enhance resistance rather than armor. For instance, the Corporeal glyph provides a 150% bonus to magic damage, translating to increased Elemental Resistance.

Besides, glyphs like Amplify in the Flash-eater Paragon Board further enhance resistance to all elements, synergizing well with other boosting glyphs. Alternatively, you can allocate points into the Necromancer or Scent of Death Paragon Board for specific Elemental Resistances, particularly Shadow and Poison.

However, maximizing resistance over the Paragon Board offers more flexibility, allowing you to focus on rings with intrinsic Elemental Resistances. By streamlining resistance enhancements and minimizing the need for specific gear stats, you can ensure comprehensive elemental resistance without the hassle of micromanaging individual resistance values.

Lucky Hit Chance

Lucky Hit Chance can be a source of confusion for many players, especially when it comes to its practical application. Take the X'Fal's Corroded Signet, for instance, which promises up to a 50% chance for your damage over time effects to erupt, dealing damage. While these sounds promising, the reality of Lucky Hit Chance is often more complex.

The Blight skill has a 40% Lucky Hit Chance. However, this percentage isn't as straightforward as it seems. Lucky Hit Chance effects from damage over time are divided by 6 because of their duration of over 6 seconds. As a result, the actual chance of triggering the X'Fal's Corroded Signet from Blight is significantly lower, typically around 3-4%.

Similar challenges arise with other abilities like the Corpse Explosion and Blood Mist, especially when dealing with Desecrated Ground, which has its own base Lucky Hit Chance of 9%. While it's possible to maximize Lucky Hit Chance to trigger X'Fal's Corroded Signet consistently, it often requires significant Diablo 4 Gold investment and may not yield reliable results.

Consider the Wither node, as it offers a chance for your Shadow damage over time effects to explode for bonus damage, providing a consistent source of additional damage without relying on Lucky Hit Chance mechanics. By strategically allocating Intelligence gear and mastering the Wither node, you can significantly enhance your damage output in Shadow builds.

Uber Uniques

Finally, the last one we will discuss is Uber Unique items, which often raise questions among Necromancer players will be explored. Powerful items like the Grandfather or Andariel's Visage cannot be utilized by Necromancers. The same goes for the Harlequin Crest.

In a minion-focused build where your primary damage dealers are skeletons, golems, and Army of the Dead, the Harlequin Crest's skill enhancement does not significantly benefit these abilities. Instead, other aspects such as cooldown reduction for the Corpse Tendrils or bonus damage for Blight in a Shadow build may prove more valuable.

The Ring of Starless Skies, known for its multiplicative 40% damage increase. Opting for this ring over relying solely on minion damage boosts can result in a substantial overall damage increase for both you and your minions. Additionally, items like Tyrael's Might offer valuable damage reduction benefits, particularly useful against formidable foes in higher Pit levels.

Interestingly, Necromancers are among the classes that require the least reliance on Unique items. Even without specific Unique gear, Necromancers can excel, with Tier 70 Pit levels being a viable farming option with no extensive Unique item acquisition. This freedom from reliance on Unique items allows for greater experimentation and customization in building your Necromancer class.

Welcome, fellow players! Here are 3 overpowered builds for the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC that you probably haven't explored yet. These builds will help you conquer obstacles and triumph over challenges. Despite being lesser known, they offer substantial strength and are surprisingly accessible for newcomers.

Night Comet Build

First, I will go over one of the most popular Night Comet build. Obviously, this outstanding magic build will feature the Night Comet that most enemies can't dodge. The secret of this spell is that it is partially invisible, which makes bosses and enemies with dodge features unable to avoid the impact of the spell.

This build is perfect for a very balanced close to mid-range experience because you can charge a spell or spam it depending on the scenario you are facing. To break the game with this build, we need 2 Staff of Losses at +25. This weapon has a passive effect over Night Comet, boosting its damage by 30%, and it stacks with another Staff of Loss, granting a huge damage boost.

We also need any seal we have available to cast our main buffs. I recommend using the Alberich's Robe in its altered version, the Traveler's Gloves and Boots, and the Festive Hood in its altered version as well. However, you can choose any armor that you like by investing in some Elden Ring Runes.

The most effective talismans for this one are the Ritual Sword Talisman, the Magic Scorpion Charm, the Godfrey Icon, and the Graven-Mass Talisman.

In the Flask of Wondrous Physick, we will use the Magic-Shrouding Cracked Tear and the Greenspill Crystal Tear.

Smashing all those bosses will be impossible unless you use 40 on Vigor, 35 on Mind, 35 on Endurance, 99 on Intelligence, and 33 on Faith. The Golden Bow and Howl of Shabriri are going to be your main buffs, and we need the Terra Magica and Night Comet, which is indeed the major source of damage for the build.

Nightrider Glaive Build

Next, we have the old Demolisher, one of the most fun builds in the Elden Ring so far. The Nightrider Glaive has an amazing performance. Many players use this weapon with Flame Strike ash of war, and the effect is pretty good. But if you use this weapon with the Spinning Strikes, this build will go crazy and destroy all bosses in seconds.

This build is really amazing because it allows you to buff your weapon with any element you want. In this case, I recommend using the Bloodflame Blade, but you can use whatever weapon buff you want. The thing is that with Bloodflame Blade, you will build up the blade and deal fire damage at the same time.

The Nightrider Glaive must be upgraded to +25 with the Spinning Strike ash of war on the heavy affinity, and we are going to use the Clawmark Seal to get the most out of Bloodflame Blade and to cast our main buffs. I'm going to be using the Beast Champion armor set with the Scale Gauntlets to have enough power so my attacks won't get interrupted.

The most important talismans for this build are the Ritual Sword Talisman, the Millicent's Prosthesis, the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia Talisman, and the Shard of Alexander. However, an excellent alternative is the Lord of Blood's Exultation. You can replace any talisman you don't want to use with this one.

In the Flask of Wondrous Physick, the Thorny Cracked Tear and the Stonebarb Cracked Tear are really effective. However, the Flame-Shrouding Cracked Tear is amazing as well.

To get the best performance of this build, we need 40 on Vigor and 35 on Endurance. We will level over strength to 80 and fate to 60. The Golden Bow, Howl of Shabriri and Bloodflame Blade are going to be our main buffs.

Death Ritual Spear Build

Moving forward to the next one, which is the amazing Death Ritual Spear build. The Death Ritual Spear is a very underrated magic weapon with an incredible, unique skill capable of obliterating the toughest enemies of the game in seconds.

We will need the Death Ritual Spear at +10, and the Azur's Glintstone Staff to cast our spells faster or any other you find in your inventory, and any seal we have available to cast our main buffs. The most effective armor set for this build is the Spellblade Set because it will boost our damage when using the skill by 25%.

To boost our damage to the top, we need the Ritual Sword Talisman, The Shard of Alexander, the Magic Scorpion Charm, and the Old Lord's Talisman. This last talisman will increase the duration of our buffs by 30%.

In our Flask of Wondrous Physick, we will use the Magic-Shrouding Cracked Tear and the Dexterity-knot Crystal Tear. However, if you need more control in the boss fights, the Stonebarb Cracked Tear is always a good option.

The next stats will make this build shine: we need 40 on Vigor, 30 on Minor Endurance, 71 on Dexterity, 52 on Intelligence, and 33 on Faith. The Golden Bow and Howl of Shabriri will be our main buffs, while the Terra Magica is also perfect support incantations for this build.

In Path of Exile 3.24 Necropolis, a significant number of new unique items were introduced, including some exclusive drops from Uber bosses. Among them is a new drop from the Uber Shaper boss called the Tides of Time, which is the unique belt we're going to talk about today.

Tides Of Time Explained

The Tides of Time belt is a new Unique themed around flasks in POE 3.24. It grants a very substantial increase to life and mana recovery from flasks, a 100% increase to each. It also provides 25% increased flask effect and grants flask charges, similar to the Pathfinder ascendancy.

The difference being that these stats apply their flask charges to specific flask types, and each of these stats rolls between zero and 3 flask charges gained every 3 seconds: one for life flasks, one for mana flasks, and one for utility flasks.

Build Options

This new Tides of Time unique belt will have 2 powerful use cases in the Path of Exile 3.24:

1. Non-Pathfinder Builds: The Tides of Time will serve as either an entry-level belt to be replaced with the Mageblood at a later stage of progression, or be used to enable permanent unique flask uptime on those non-Pathfinder builds.
2. Pathfinder Builds: The builds will empower and use multiple unique flasks simultaneously while benefiting from the huge amount of increased life recovery from flasks modifier combined with Master Surgeon.

Non-Pathfinder Builds

Let’s first discuss those non-Pathfinder builds with the Tides of Time. This belt can provide access to permanent uptime on flasks as an entry-level option to the builds, which may later use the Mageblood. These builds will need to invest in increased flask duration and increased flask charges gained modifiers to sustain flasks permanently outside of normal mapping.

In the Necropolis League, Tides of Time unique belt with 3 utility flask charges gained every 3 seconds is going for about 3 Divine Orbs, whilst a Mageblood with 4 flasks enabled is about 138 divines. Enabling permanent flasks via the Tides of Time will require varied levels of investment depending on your location on the passive tree.

Non-Pathfinder Ranger builds will have it the easiest, as they can spec into a lot of charge generation and flask duration near their start location on the tree. The only increased flask charges gain stat obtainable on the passive tree is the Essence Extraction wheel located at the Mind Over Matter keystone. However, this wheel does provide a sizable 35% increased flask charges gained.

Permanent Flask Uptime

If you're trying to enable permanent flask uptime with the Tides of Time, you'll likely want to make use of 1 or 2 cluster Jewels, as these can grant the required stats you need anywhere on the tree. There are life and mana recovery from flask clusters or clusters which provide flask duration, both of which are medium-sized cluster jewels.

The Spiked Concoction cluster jewel notable provides access to the Alchemist's Genius buff, which grants 20% increased flask charges gained and 10% increased flask effects for 4 seconds when using a flask. You can pair that with the Fasting notable for another 20% increased flask charges gained.

The potential of permanent uptime on flasks like Progenitus on something like a Juggernaut or Champion is crazy, not to mention other unique flasks such as Taste of Hate and Coruscating Elixir.

Pathfinder Builds

However, I think the true potential of the Tides of Time is realized on the Pathfinder. This belt can provide an entire Pathfinder ascendancy notable for other ascendancies, but the Pathfinder just has the tools available to really push this belt to its limit.

A Pathfinder with the Tides of Time and Master Surgeon and a small amount of points invested into flask recovery on the tree will reach 4,000 plus life recovered per second from their life flask alone. The Tides of Time belt has several powerful stats, making it competitive with very expensive crafted belts. In specific setups, the Tides of Time is outright superior to Mageblood.

To maximize the potential of the belt, a setup utilizing at least 2 unique flasks, Progenitus and Taste of Hate, is recommended. The Pathfinder's Master Surgeon provides constant life recovery, synergizing well with the belt's abilities. Additionally, the belt itself offers a 25% increased flask effect gain.

For Pathfinders, employing a cluster Jewel for Alchemist Genius and acquiring all increased flask effect nodes on the passive skill tree can result in an impressive 80% increased flask effects for Progenitus and Taste of Hate.

With the flask effect, it’s possible for a Pathfinder with the Tides of Time to actually keep up a well-rolled Dying Sun permanently as well. With the 80% increased effect, it will provide skills to fire 3 additional projectiles, and some increased area effects. Importantly, the Dying Sun is also a ruby flask. It will also provide plus 9% to maximum fire resistance.

Conclusion

In setups where you utilize multiple unique flasks while maximizing life recovery from flasks, the Tides of Time stands out. Progenitus and Taste of Hate aren’t the only options because of the ample flask charges you can generate.

Pathfinders synergize the belt's charge gain with the ascendancy to maintain 2, 3, or even 4 unique flasks. Leveraging Master Surgeon for substantial life recovery boosts, the Tides of Time proves incredibly potent. This belt offers significant utility and power, especially when paired with a Pathfinder.

In the Last Epoch 1.0, Marksman proved to be quite powerful. So today I’m going to bring you this Flurry Multishot Marksman build, specifically for the endgame. Currently, this stands as the top all-around build for the Marksman. It also ranks among the best builds in the entire game.

Overview

The gameplay involves channeling Flurry. Through both Flurry and Multishot specializations, you can gain additional procs of Multishot, leading to some of the best AOE screen clearing any class or build has to offer.

You can be confident it’s more than capable of dishing out enough single target damage as well. Your attacks can Slow and Knockback, furthering your DPS uptime. It can also interrupt or reposition enemies as well, and you need to be mindful of that if you’re fighting a boss with mechanics.

In addition, this build quickly applies armor shred and physical resist shred to boost the damage the longer you’re able to stay on targets like bosses, so you can see it’s a solid boss killer. This build only gets better while running the Monolith Echoes.

Skills & Specializations

First, let’s take a quick look at Flurry and Multishot in terms of the specialization tree:

Flurry: This skill is going to be transformed by Boundless Blows into a channeled skill. So we’re just going to hold this ability down, and then it’ll have a chance to proc Multishot every 6 attacks.

Multishot: Thanks to Readied Arrows, also can be shot while you’re using Flurry in this case. So we’re just getting a number of Multishot being cast automatically just for holding down the Flurry button. This means the foundation of the build can simply be seen just by holding down Flurry.

In fact, if you use no other skills, just channeling Flurry is going to give you a barrage of arrows to melt everything on your screen. Now you may feel somewhat vulnerable in this build because of Flurry being a channel skill.

Shift: We also run Shift with this build, and Shift is not only for mobility but survivability as well, as you can quickly dash to another spot, repositioning your character. The better you are at repositioning yourself and avoiding this damage, the stronger and more powerful this build will become. However, one thing we are going to take is going to be Sleight of Hand, and this is going to actually cause Shuriken to deploy when we use our Shift.

Shuriken: The Shuriken will eventually spiral around you and become a shield. This is going to actually give you additional duration along with increased armor while the Shuriken are active. When you Shift, you’re actually getting some additional defensive properties as well. If you’re keeping up, that means that Flurry is going to trigger Multishot and Shift is going to trigger Shuriken.

Smoke Bomb: The final ability that you’ll actually actively cast, and this will really only be on bosses or more difficult rare enemies, is going to be Smoke Bomb. This is going to actually allow you to apply Silver Shroud.

Gear

So let’s talk about a few of the items that will increase the effectiveness of this build. If you possess ample Last Epoch Gold, consider enhancing certain items.

The first item is Xithara's Conundrum. This is really powerful despite it removing the ability to leech health or the health regen as well. The 25% more physical damage appears to work multiplicatively and dramatically boost your damage more so than you could get from a physical damage increase on a rare or exalted amulet. If you roll legendary potential, that’ll just further the capabilities of making this a powerful item.

Drelkor's Compass is going to give you flat physical damage, really strong for amplifying the damage cost of this build. It’s also got increased stun chance, which is tremendous for survivability.

Sonmia is again another item with stun. On top of that, when you kill a stunned enemy, a different nearby enemy is stunned for 2 seconds. This is part of the reason why enemies just never reach us, aside from bosses, which are immune to the stun effect.

This helmet also has Ward Retention, which works really well with the Silver Shroud stacks that we gain. Once we get up to 1,000 Ward per proc, this will help you retain that and again increase your survivability.

Forge Guard is a Level 7 item, and I would actually rate this Arrowguard as one of the best quivers in the entire game. The chance of receiving a Glancing Blow from Arrowguard pairs really well with passive like Cloak of Shadows. This is another talent that we’ll be capping out as we have the available points.

The rest of the item slots, and that’s whether you use rare, exalted, or even other unique items, can be filled out with defensive-type properties. Worry about your defensive properties first, and then increase your offensive capabilities. This build does so much damage already that you don’t really need to add much to that.

The Warrior's Bronze Belt of Insulation with elemental resist and reduced cooldown speed, allowing you to shift more frequently. Just increasing your mobility is really powerful. The bonus of this one is that have increased physical damage.

The boots in this case, nowhere are they required. It’s going to give a tremendous amount of dexterity thanks to the legendary potential rolled in them. But on top of that, getting some additional dodge rating. You’ll be very surprised at how much damage this build can do.

Idols & Blessings

The reduced mana cost just furthers our sustain, and + 4 arrows with Multishot will synergize incredibly well when you have Idols like this Hydra's Ornate Majasan Idol of the Eagle that increase the damage per arrow with Muitishot. Other Idol slots can be filled with increased stun duration and resist at the same time.

You’re going to be looking for resist, especially as you work your way through the Monolith to acquire blessings, and blessings that have resist on them are going to be really popular and powerful choices for your character.
