Intro 🎮
Hello and welcome back to rage gaming and another last Epoch talk. Today, I’ve got my short and sweet beginners guide for the game specifically for my fellow brand new players who are going to be trying the game for the first time with its 1.0 launch on February 21st. Now, let’s just get into it.
Selecting a Class and Game Mode 🎮
When starting the game, you need to pick a class and a character. There are five base classes, each with three masteries to choose from which will affect your gameplay. It’s important to consider this choice properly, as it is a permanent one. Additionally, the game mode should be selected, with ‘standard’ mode being recommended.
Choosing Your Class and Progression 📝
Following the choice of class, you will have to select between the three main options that each class offers. From there, you can progress through the game by navigating the mastery tree, picking up special abilities and working towards mastering your chosen class.

In-Game Features and Quality of Life 🧩
In-game, you’ll find features like the option to hold ‘alt’ to get more information on various aspects of the game. There’s also the game guide (‘G’ key) for more detailed explanations. The inventory management system, in particular, stands out for its logical and efficient design.

Loot Filters and Crafting Mechanics 💎
Loot filters can be tailored to filter out items that are no longer relevant for your character, making looting more efficient. Crafting allows you to imbue items with specific modifiers, offering a level of control over your gear. Additionally, vendors can supply you with runes for item destruction and resource gathering.
The Stash and Endgame Outlook 💰
In the game’s stash, players can expand and organize their storage using in-game currency. This system allows for a high level of customization and organization, especially when compared to similar games. When it comes to the endgame, it’s best to focus on progressing through the main story and unlocking the various endgame systems for more complex gameplay options.
This summarization should give new players a good foundation of essential knowledge as they embark on their journey through Last Epoch.
