Progression hole during non-empowered monoliths / difficulty spike

I’m NOT a pro ARPG gigachad, but I think monoliths need some rebalancing or some better progression gear wise.

Problem is that I do a relatively well built mage @ level 81 or 82 now and I can’t get beyond level 80 / 85 monoliths with a “chicken vs. egg” problem when it comes to gearing up.

I’m not entirely sure what I’m supposed to do at this point in the game, it could also be that this is a “me” problem, but maybe something should be done?

Usually the regular monos aren’t too hard. But if you’re having issues with it you could try posting your build and asking for advice. You could also go back to the monos you do more easily to get better gear to tackle the later ones.
It could be that you’re undergeared, in which case you’d just try farming the easier monos for it, or just that your build could use a little bump in defenses or power. Both of which the community can help you with.

How do I post my build?

Would LOVE to get some feedback!

Use this: Last Epoch Build Planner

Go to Last Epoch tools - Build Planner, import your character there, then hit the share button to get a link that you can post here.

I would advise you to post it in the threads for the class you’re playing as, rather than the feedback one.

Great, nice tool!

Thats my current build.

As I mentioned, you should just head to the Acolyte forum and post there. Feedback and Suggestions is meant for you to provide feedback about the game, not get feedback from players :grin:
Also, there are knowledgeable acolyte players that might miss your post here.

EDIT: Yeah, I meant Mage, not acolyte, obviously. Had a brain fart, sorry :joy:

What is the problem you’re having, specifically? Are you dying a lot? Are you having trouble killing things? Both? You should include that information when you pop over to the Mage forum to ask for help with your build.

I put it here…
