Eterra Monthly: Oct. 2024 Edition

by EHG_Kain

Welcome Travelers to the Eterra Monthly October 2024 Edition! We’ve got a fully loaded report for you today, so buckle up, and let’s get started. A New Dawn for the People The Immortal Emperor’s campaign for power has been halted. As immortal soldiers occupied Eterra, a large resistance was staged to fight back. The battle began on September 19th and raged until October 20th. This resistance has since succeeded against the occupying undead army, and the Immortal Empire was forced to retreat. Resistance leader Yulia had this to say, “The travelers are a force to be reckoned with and they are here to stay. The Emperor is welcome to press his influence whenever he wishes, but we will always push back!” Our reporters attempted to reach her for further comment but have yet to receive anything more. The travelers who fought so tirelessly found a way to rub salt in the immortal wound, by claiming replicas of the Emperor’s own Crown and have been flaunting them before him. The Emperor however,...

Music of Eterra | An Interview with EHG’s Lead Composer

by EHG_Kain

Hello Travelers! Welcome to the first in a series of behind-the-scenes Blog Posts, each focusing on one team or area of Last Epoch’s development! Today the Lead Composer for Eleventh Hour Games, Erik Desiderio, is here answering questions about what went into creating the iconic Last Epoch Theme song, how they get in to the mindset to portray the very feeling of moving through Eterra and what goes in to getting the music game-ready! Forging a path How are you doing today? I’m doing great, thanks for asking! Given your work on Movies like Immortals, how did you get into composing for Games? I met a guy at a party… No really. I had worked on lots of film and TV projects, but had always wanted to work on games, but no one would give me a shot. When I score, I dig deep into the story to then elevate it through music. With games, there’s a direct connection to the audience, who are the main character. Writing music that can move them and emotionally enhance the choices they make in the game...

The Immortal Uprising: End of Event Wrap-up

by EHG_Kain

Victory Travelers! Thirty-one days after the Immortal Emperor let loose his loyalists legions into the world, the uprising has successfully been quelled. With a total of 760,523,009 skeletons slain, the Immortal Emperor has realized their grave error and been forced to pull his forces back to standard deployments. To reward your efforts in stopping this uprising, Yulia has managed to acquire a special item from the Emperor’s personal stash for you, which you will be able to claim from the in-game MTX shop (at no charge) to add to your cosmetic inventory. This marks the end of the Immortal Uprising Event. We hope everyone enjoyed all the event had to offer, and with Eterra returning to a more peaceful state, we wanted to go over what’s happening in the trenches, and what to expect as we continue onwards to 1.2 End of Event Patch Over the course of the event, we’ve been closely monitoring feedback and thoughts regarding features introduced with The Imperial Uprising, such as the event bu...

Last Epoch Hotfix 1.1.7.2 Notes

by EHG_Kain

Changes Reworked the Isle of Storms quest, to avoid a possible progression block. The entire collect the Moon Fragments step has been removed, along with the two altars. The portal to Lagon's Temple now appears right after speaking with Liath in the Moonlit Shrine. Your efforts to unburden all the Loot Lizards of Eterra have been paying off! Many of the Loot Lizards are now safely back at home having been freed of their burdens. In response, the factions employing them are becoming more wary of sending their Lizards into the world. Blue and White Loot Lizards now start spawning in area level 12 and above. This prevents players finding Idols before having any Idol slots unlocked in normal gameplay scenarios Loot Lizards spawn less frequently, especially in the campaign Loot Lizard shrines are less common, especially in the early game Fewer lizards are blue, this makes the other types more common. All Loot Lizards, other than the blue lizard, drop more of their main types of loot. Lizard...

Last Epoch updates season roadmap to focus on "key improvements" first

by editor@pcgamesn.com

With the Diablo 4 DLC just a month away and the Path of Exile 2 beta a month after that, ARPG lovers might be wondering where Last Epoch fits in. Its spectacular success following the 1.0 launch in February 2024 has poised it to become a potential third pillar of the genre, but developer Eleventh Hour Games has been relatively quiet on its future plans of late. Now, with a mid-season reset imminent, the developer announces plans to push back its next major update in order to integrate more dramatic upgrades with Last Epoch patch 1.2.
