Unlocking Idols in Last Epoch
To unlock Idols in Last Epoch, players must progress through the main quests and reach the Council Chambers for the first time. By following the main story path, players will unlock their first two Idols by around level 12. Some players may acquire them sooner through exploration and farming, while others may obtain them later. However, access to Idols is only granted upon reaching the Council Chambers and speaking with Elder Gaspar, who provides the Idols and the slots to equip them.
How to Equip Idols in Last Epoch
To equip Idols, open your inventory and drag them to the designated slots in the top right of the screen. After speaking with Elder Gaspar, you'll have four slots to equip Idols, allowing for a mix of vertical and horizontal placements. As you find more Idols in the game, you can rearrange them in your inventory like a Tetris puzzle. The size of the Idol determines its power, with larger Idols offering greater benefits.
Types of Idols
Idols in Last Epoch come in various sizes and types, each offering different bonuses. The size of the Idol corresponds to its potency, with larger Idols providing more significant effects.

Idols can be easily removed from their slots by dragging and dropping them back into your regular inventory or by right-clicking to transfer them.
