↖ Starting with Craft

It is possible for any normal, magic, rare or exalted item to have forging potential enabling them to be crafted except unique ones or set items. Each item in the game has a limited number of affixes; the more powerful an item's affixes are, the fewer there are of them.

 

Item Level (which is indicated by Roman numerals) represents a measure of power for each tier within an affix category. This means that if someone says "tier 20" they mean that it's made up entirely of tier five modifiers—a near perfect item. At this stage, all what you need during endgame loops is finding good bases and using shards plus glyphs/rune/smithing tools on it to make godly gears.

 

↖ Craft During Campaign

Usually during your first time crafting experiences you'll find yourself somewhere within a campaign mode where resources abundant and mistakes cost nothing yet. So what should I do? In fact, it doesn’t take rocket science! One needs only concentrate on boosting damage done by weapons; enhancing lives/resists with armors and adding movement speed for boots. For the more significant endgame items you will have to save the rarer shards.

 

↖ Glyphs and Runes

Crafting in Last Epoch involves two other elements that are runes and glyphs. Here is a quick overview:

• Glyph of Hope: Gives a chance not to consume any forging potential during crafting.
• Glyph of Chaos: Randomly changes an affix when upgrading, but use it cautiously as it can make or break an item.
• Glyph of Order: Preserves the percentile range when upgrading an affix—ideal for maximizing specific stats.
• Glyph of Despair: Seals (or attempts to seal) an affix so it can't change further; more effective on lower-tier affixes.

 

At various points in mapping, There are serval better use cases for different kinds of runes

• Rune of Shattering: Breaks down items into Aex shards.
• Rune of Refinement: Rerolls all values within their current tiers on all prefixes and suffixes randomly.
• Rune of Removal: Eliminates one affix , the result is giving out shards equal to that tier.
• Rune of Discovery: Adds random tier-one affixes to all empty slots on the item being crafted,
• Runeof Shaping: Rerolls implicit modifiers (i.e., attributes or abilities that come with a specific item class). 
• Runeof Ascendance: Changes unique/set items (depending on what's allowed by class) into rare ones instead where each new item has its own forged potential while also nullifying the forged potential on both items.

 

Combine an exalted item with full affix slots with a unique item that has legendary potential in Temporal Sanctum, to craft a legendary object. The sanctum's level requirement depends on the unique item's level requirement.

This process transfers one random modifier from the exalted item onto the unique item, in addition to its existing stats. The number of modifiers transferred corresponds to the unique items' legendary potential (LP). Four LP items are very rare but offers the best potential outcomes.

 

↖ Practical Crafting Tips

1. Start from scratch: Identify items that have high levels of forging and highly desirable static or suffix properties.
2. Focus on critical statistics: Begin by upgrading crucial suffixes like damage and resistance.
3. Save on resources: Use spells such as Glyph of Hope to cut down any possible losses experienced during crafting.
4. Know when to quit: Always think about shattering the object if it is not worth it due to poor prefix rolls or low forging potential.
