hey all, and welcome back to fepsy gaming. In a very quick Day One update video, I thought it might be useful to bring an update out when I'm just about to get to maps to go through what I've done with the league mechanic, any struggles that I came across on the build, um, and just kind of show you where the build is at the moment. There were massive performance issues yesterday for me and lots of people as well. I think I took 50 minutes to do act one, an hour to do act two, and similar act three. So then I just went to bed, woke up this morning, and carried on, and it seems to be better. I wasn't able to take a because Oak was just glitching every time I tried to kill him, so I had to help Oak. So I've struggled a little bit with my resistances. I couldn't get my quicksilver flask in act two because the den glitched every time I went in, so I didn't get a second quicksilver to

around act four. Overall, it was okay. Helix felt as clunky as it normally does, but it did the job. And once I switched to Lightning Strike, felt absolutely fine. I went into Heist as I said I was going to, and then I checked the price of Ichimonji, and they were one chaos, so there wasn't really any point. High, as I'd already got about 10 chaos through the campaign, so I bought a five-link for 3C, bought an Ichimonji or two Ichimonji for one chaos each, and then a couple of one-seat jewelry items just to make sure my attributes are almost at what they need to be when the gems are level 20, because if you're not able to level your gems around at seven or eight, you're not going to do any damage when you switch to Ichimonji, because a lot of your auras is what provides your damage. Now that I've got my five-link up and running, the DPS is as expected. Mat bosses are melting in like a couple of

seconds. The defenses are fine with just Grace and adrenaline. I've only got two Labs so far. I still need to get my fortify lab, which I'll do in Act 10. But overall, Helix was a little bit clunky. Performance has been pretty bad, and I've spent too long in the lead mechanic, even though I said I wouldn't. So what I'll just quickly do before I sign off is just go and show you how I'm getting on with the lead mechanic and just explain a bit how it works in case people haven't really got stuck in it yet. But what you need to do is basically look to unlock all the types of resources you can. So when you mine at the beginning, I think you can mine one type of resource. Then when you update your mining station, you can eventually find different ones. I've obviously not unlocked them all yet because I'm still in the campaign. But essentially, you just want to upgrade stuff when you can. Shipping is probably not worth it early.

on, I've sent loads of shipments. I've maybe got a couple of runes, and then loads and loads of junk gear. If you're stuck on a fall link, or you need a fall link, my first shipment brought back like six different for links. It does seem that when you get shipments in, the links are quite good. Same with F as here. If we just go and do a quick gamble with Fus, so we're going to Fus, and I need a pair of armor. Innovation boots, so we'll buy a pair, and so as you can see, they roll pretty well, and they tend to roll with four sockets. These are no good for me whatsoever, and I do think it's quite expensive early on when your gold can go towards things like respeccing or upgrading Kings March. Essentially, all your town improvements are in your overall settlement is done from here. This window here is where you can see what workers you've got assigned, and then you basically just go to each one to upgrade them. So, farming have got individual plots, so you would choose

what type of materials or crops you want to grow, and then choose which people you want on. I find that spending your gold respecing his recruiter list here worked well early on because I got some decent workers, and then basically every time I go to town half my gold I dump in the town treasury because it does start to eat your gold. So as you can see, I've got 2 and half th000 in there, and that will last me 4 and 1/2 hours. I'm pausing shipping at the moment because the last one I sent got like one chaos, one Jeweler's, one fusing. I'm going to wait until I get other stuff upgraded. Um, so I've got recombinator unlock once I get enough thermagic dust, which I should get from Rog who disenchants. All you need to do is really follow the quest line. It's pretty simple. All you need to do when you're doing this lead mechanic is make sure that the person you've got in the job is a specialization that job.

otherwise, it's super super slow. I think when you want to get rid of someone, you have to go to the town planner. I might be wrong though, so you just go in. If you want to get rid of a member of staff, go to the recruiter Town Recruitment, and then you can see this person here idling. I can just say release, and that gets him off of my wage bill. Um, that's kind of it. It was just a quick video. Progress was really smooth, so don't worry about it, but you do need to make sure attributes you're looking after so you can level up your auras. That's kind of going to be the main thing where you get damage from. Um, so what we'll do is just go and run through a bit of the campaign Zone. I messed up my path, and I thought I dropped a portal at the top, and I didn't. So we'll have to run all the way through this Zone, but it's a good way to kind of have a look at the build. I'll just reset.

it. So, there's actually enemies in here, but yeah, if you're on a five-link and you've got AAS at level, I don't know what mine are, yeah, sort of 14, you're going to be, you're going to have ample DPS. So, I think we need to go this way, uh, take that 'cause I think that's my first in kindling or a lot of these zones are quite annoying for leap slam. The amount of times we got stuck on senior, it seems to be getting worse. Um, yeah, it's happened a lot where I've got stuck on a rock, which is great, um, and then I got my V skill after my, can't remember how many vobs it was, it was a few, I think it was six, um, to get my V skill, which was a little bit annoying because I didn't get it online till much later, um, but as you can see from the footage earlier in the video, that massively helps with your DPS. Um, so we go just going to do this own as well.

and then we'll sign off um but yeah, I'm out today. And then I'm hoping to just blast on Sunday, so we're just going to get our lab trial in here. Then we can sign off. Apologies if you can hear my very loud clicky keyboard. I forgot to put my uh kind of cheaper, softer keyboard on, but we'll take as much gold as we can 'cause my town is starting to drink it. So as you can see, once you drop your valve skills on like an enemy, the single target is really good. I've not really had a problem with any of the league mechanic kind of that the monsters seem about the right tune. Normally we know at League start the monsters are just crazy. The only thing I found well overtuned um is blight. I tried to blight early on, and I just couldn't damage any of the monsters. Um, you're not really at the stage where you're going to get towers to do everything for you. Um, so yeah, the blight I tried one didn't try another one um so.

that's it for that section. As I say, a new video will be out tomorrow. Thank you very much for watching. Take care and see you in the next one.
