Last Epoch was released to the public in early access last month, and it’s since been a hit with fans of action RPGs like Diablo 4. Last Epoch has attracted attention for good reason, but it’s impossible to say it doesn’t have its own share of issues. Ever since its early access release, developer Eleventh Hour Games has been consistently pushing out patches to squash some of the game’s bugs and hopefully make it more stable for new content to come. The complete patch notes for Last Epoch update 1.0.3 – including changes to the Wandering Spirit and audio fixes – are available below.
Last Epoch Update 1.0.3: All Patch Notes
Campaign Changes
- Moved Transition to Temporal Sanctum from The Ruined Coast so it’s not as easy to accidentally transition after combat.
Skill Changes
- Changed Cloud Gatherer to only apply to any individual Smoke Bomb one time.
- Wandering Spirits now has 30% more spirit reveal frequency
- Wandering Spirits now has a base of damage of 20 (from 16.2) and damage effectiveness of 200% (from 180% actual, 140% listed)
- These are compensatory buffs that were intended to be included alongside the change in 1.0 that made Wandering Spirits always fade out when the reveal duration ends, but the buff did not make it into release. Since the initial change was a nerf and did make it into 1.0, and this compensatory buff was always planned to be paired with the change, we’re adding the buff in this patch instead of waiting for the next cycle.
