Introduction 🎮
In this build guide, we will be covering the Falconer Build in Last Epoch. This guide is an update to a previous video and will focus on the changes and updates made to the build, as well as the potential and progression it offers for players.
Falconer Overview 🦅
The Falconer build has been played exclusively on Last Epoch and has shown great potential, being able to push up to 400 corruption. However, it does have some vulnerabilities, particularly due to the gear choices and certain skills that were initially used.
Movement Ability and Skill Adjustments 💨
In the previous setup, aerial assault was a critical part of the build, but it has now been replaced due to some drawbacks. We have also discovered new techniques to enhance the effectiveness of our skills by utilizing bleed transfer mechanics.
