Cover-Credits:
Last Epoch, developed by Eleventh Hour Games, offers players a deep skill and passive system that allows for diverse character customization. But as you progress, you might want to experiment with different builds, making the ability to respec crucial. Compared to other games like Path of Exile, Last Epoch's respec system is forgiving and inexpensive. This guide will explain how to respec both skill and passive points effectively in Last Epoch.
Why Respec Skills in Last Epoch?
Respecing skills allows you to try various builds and playstyles without starting a new character. It lets you tailor your build for specific content, experiment with different skill combinations, and adapt to different scenarios. Respeccing can also be useful for reallocating points to better fit your current playstyle or gear.
Respecing Passive Points in Last Epoch
To respec your passive skill points, you need to talk to Chronomancer Lerinne in Keeper’s Camp or any other hub zone. Look for the brain icon on the minimap to locate her. The cost of passive skill respec in Last Epoch starts at 20 Gold but increases with each skill point refunded. Opening the passive talents menu can be done by pressing ‘P.’
Respecing Active Skill Points in Last Epoch
For active skill points, open the skill tree by pressing 'S,' then navigate to the specific skill’s individual skill tree. Click the ‘Respec’ button in the upper right corner to refund skill points. Be careful not to de-specialize the skill, as this resets progress to the next skill point.
Respecing Mastery Skills in Last Epoch
Your Mastery Points, or Passives, are specific to your class and apply to your character as a whole. To respec them, visit an NPC in a major town, such as the End of Time, marked by a brain icon on the mini-map. Select the Respecialize Mastery Point allocations option to access your Passive Point Grid.
Respecing Skill Specialization in Last Epoch
To respec Skill Specialization, open the Skills menu and select the Skill you want to change. On the Skill's Specialization tree, choose the Respec option. You can then either remove an allocated Skill Point or Despecialize the Skill entirely to select a new specialization.
