Season 3 Upgrades: Major Enhancements to Minions in Last Epoch

Sure, here it is:

—

Alright, so here’s the scoop, or at least how I see it. Last Epoch, you know, that game with time travel and all that jazz? Well, they’re shaking things up a bit with this new mode they call “Assassinate.” And yes, that’s as dramatic as it sounds. Can’t say I’m shocked; it feels like they’re always cooking up something.

So, this Assassinate thing—you’ll throw it into Season 3, and your minions will act all sneaky-like, focusing on far-off enemies. They’re saying they’ll even hone in on those rare bosses. Why is this such a big deal? Well, apparently, until now, they kind of just flopped around aimlessly. Who knew? Oh, and if you’re not into that kind of aggression, there’s always the mellow “Protect” mode. It’s like having a loyal butler, keeping your minions close. Two swords mean they’re in beast mode; a shield means they’re just chilling out. Pick your poison.

Now, a bit about the game’s journey. It’s an action RPG—guess we have enough of those, right? But hey, it’s got time travel and dungeons, which I admit is kind of cool. Last Epoch rolled out in 2024, with five classes to mix and match until your brain melts. They’ve got this season setup, and we’re about to hit Season 3 any day now. It feels like only yesterday we were knee-deep in Tombs of the Erased. Time, man. It just flies.

And get this—there are changes to minion AI coming too, like an update for the Beastmaster lot. Might mean something to some of you; others might just nod vaguely. Uh, moving along, they’re finally letting folks dress up even in Offline Mode. It’s about time, right? Just pop online once to set it up, then poof—cosmetics wherever you are. Kind of like a fashion show in a vacuum.

Oh, should mention, they’re tweaking the Merchants’ Guild too. Something about shopping filters and tokens… Honestly, my eyes glazed over. But, for those who care about such things, I guess it’s neat. It’s like the tweaks keep coming and coming, but then… isn’t that what games do?

Anyway, keep your eyes peeled for all this starting August 21. Buckle up. Or don’t. Up to you.
