Portal to exit monolith does not work. Fades out when trying to enter/exit

alitheros · March 29, 2026, 10:50pm

Same issue. I only play offline so this effectively kills the game for me until fixed. Only started experiencing today, but as soon as the glitch started it’s every monolith on all my characters.

tretyakov · March 30, 2026, 5:27am

The only workaround that I found:

When it happens restart the game
Play only monoliths
When it happens again, restart

Normally if you play only monoliths, it doesn’t appear for some time

Same and agreed. Missing out on the mono rewards are less of a problem (another rework for another day), but not being able to go back to the hub with the stash puts a big damper in running mono after mono.

Same issue for me. Steamdeck seasonal offline Sentinel. Portal opens and disappears when trying to click it. Ruining the season for me.

ZSpecZA · March 30, 2026, 6:40pm

I’m also experiencing this, in both offline modes, on all character classes. I thought I found a way around it (reset the game every 3 echoes), it worked for like an hour until I started getting the bug on the 2nd echo. It’s put a real damper on playing during this season, so much so that I’ve had to stop playing. I’d like to keep playing, but this bug is just too frustrating. It seems the only correct solution for now is to just play online, but I can’t do that as I’m in South Africa and my smallest latency in online is 189ms to EU. I have tried repairing game files via Steam, I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game. Seems like there’s nothing a player can do on their end to fix or work around this issue.

Having the same issue now that I’m in monos, managed to get it to occur again and get the log file for it. Monolith objective was to kill a Nemesis, you can see a message related to that on line 10890, followed by a warning about an issue with the Interactable targets list, and then a crash report upload (although the game did not actually crash).

This is great analytical work. How did you log the portal crash in offline mode? I hope LE developers are paying attention to this post.

ZSpecZA · March 30, 2026, 10:05pm

There’s a “Known Season 4 Issues” channel in the Discord, with a message that mentions " * Sometimes offline portals fail to work in Echoes", so they are at least aware of the issue. (I wouldn’t have used the word “sometimes”, though… it’s more like “most of the time”).

StealthTom · March 30, 2026, 11:12pm

This is just the default log Unity writes, the two most recent ones are located in a directory for the game on your computer (the path for Windows should be [User]/AppData/LocalLow/Eleventh Hour Games/Last Epoch/) as Player.log and Player-prev.log.

alec_ht · March 31, 2026, 5:26am

Yesterday i tried to play but with leaving each time as a solution (either leave or restart the game). I couldn’t find any pattern for the recurrence.
After a fresh start of the game I’ve got to do 5-7-5-2 echoes before the bug (the 2 is really surprising and frustrating). And after leave I’ve got 3-6-4-5-11-7-4 echoes.

Perhaps there is a link with the type of reward, loading or an other thing that cause the boolean value of the portal to not activate but it’s really jarring to tried to play with a Damocles sword above your head.

I Hope a fix will come quickly cause RN i can’t play empowered mono if I’m not sure to get some reward for specific echoes (and echoes chain).

Akitoon · March 31, 2026, 9:59am

Hello, I have the same problem. In offlinemode

On top of that, as soon as I die in the Molmnolith, I stay on the map.

Yarich69 · March 31, 2026, 10:12am

Same error. In addition, I observe a number of errors in offline mode (I haven’t checked online)

EHG_Vandryll · March 31, 2026, 12:59pm

Hey everyone

As stated by another here in the thread, this has been reported and is being investigated by the team. If you’ve not done so, be sure to submit an in-game bug report whenever this has occurred.

Beocalyptica · March 31, 2026, 6:11pm

Can you please give us an ETA? It makes the game unplayable for an offline character. Thanks!

Zakknaphen · April 1, 2026, 2:19am

I have found that if you wait atleast 25sec after you spawn tp it works for me. I am at 25 in a row. hope it helps.
Well its not perfect still happening just not as much.

Paladorez · April 1, 2026, 7:11am

That’s an interesting observation, but I’m doubtful it a tp on timer issue. Also, I don’t think we should have to wait 25 secs to get out, though. That put’s you in a real bind if you have to portal out to get out of a bad situation. 25 seconds is also a long time to wait relative to this type of gameplay.

Reizzie · April 1, 2026, 5:56pm

The latest game patch 1.4.2 doesn’t fix this portal error either

jocantaro · April 1, 2026, 11:11pm

I give up. there is no hope for this game

es5477 · April 1, 2026, 11:47pm

I was hoping the latest patch would finally fix the bug, but it didn’t, and now I’m in total despair.
This is my first season playing, and I was genuinely starting to love the game. But because of this bug, I’ve completely lost the motivation to play anymore.I would like a refund.

Pauly99 · April 2, 2026, 12:56am

I love this game and I’ve been a loyal supporter since the early days, but my patience has finally run out. Why is such a critical, game-breaking bug still not fixed? What are you even focusing on? You’ve forgotten how massive the end-game community is. How are we supposed to farm when the basic mechanics are broken? This is incredibly poor management and frankly, unbelievable.
