Soooo many memories about my old L2 Gladiator coming back!
Are there any plans to redo the arena? In the form in which it is now no good at all
So you are adding arena maps, but not buffing arena drops or expanding Arena mechanics? DESPITE the fact that you are expanding monolith mechanics?
PLEASE expand Arena mechanics and buff arena drops.

so in other words - the insane 500k dps builds are gonna get even faster, this isn’t PoE, I don’t want it to be only speed meta.

We have revisited every skill in the game to better standardize our specialization trees.
- Older skills should now be appreciably more viable in challenging content.
I can’t wait to see the changes!!
nice, nice

Patch 0.8.1 introduces substantial updates to endgame content, our itemization, and elements of our user interface. As with all content patches, it also brings new polish to Last Epoch.
Any ideas to improve buff status panel ?
Yes, we need more buff icons. That is a Rogue-only problem (at the moment).
Beastmaster can get 8 going as well, although i havent tried for even more than that i bet it might be able to break the rogue record.
Gorgeous
If only people played the Primalist.
I will, as long as I get a response on the Primalist channel on Discord.
What is the primalist? There are only 3 classes in this game kappa
due to people keeping this patch thread alive I assumed there was a new patch and I could actually play my EQ Druid again but…no thats not the case, since you can currently brick your whole monolith progression by failing to unlock Empowered Mono’s due a bug if you had another monolith run open at the time - not even a sticky to warn players just walk right into it. ah well
Any info on multiplayer?
Still no.
This looks great!
Just to be clear, this is the patch preview thread for 0.8.1 which is the live version of the game. 0.8.2’s patch preview thread has not been released yet.
Hah, whoops. I was reading the Monolith Overhaul, logged in and must of clicked on this. Still, 0.8.1 is Great!
