Last Epoch Speed Farming Tier List (1.0) - Top 5 Speed Farming & League Starters Builds in Last Epoch

When it comes to speed farming and league starters, having a strong and efficient build is crucial. These top 5 speed farming builds are going to be some of the fastest builds that allow you to go through Epoch in the end game to get to your rewards even faster to find more loot as quickly as possible. That's not to be confused with speed running through the campaign, these are not meant as speedrunners from level 1 all the way to the end of the campaign. These are in the endgame system some of the fastest content builds that you can get that destroy the content as quickly as possible. Now let’s get straight into these best speedfarm builds in Last Epoch 1.0.


Number 1: Shadow Dagger Bladedancer (S-Tier)

How this build works? Basically, your damage is going to revolve around shadow daggers and the plunge effect they have which is a guaranteed crit. It does huge critical strike damage, and you can apply that by shifting. When you shift, you can make shadows. The shadows you make will drop an Umbral Blade, the Umbral Blade will spin in a circle hitting enemies applying shadow daggers and then the shadow daggers will plunge when you get to a certain amount of stacks. That's all done by just using one skill shifting forward, you can use Shadow Cascade to do even more procs especially against single target. But for the most part for Epoch running and especially into the higher corruption you literally just shift and that's all. Just use your speed transversal skill and it's just going to fly you through the maps to those rewards even quicker.

Number 2: Hydron Runemaster (S-Tier)

This is a lightning fire runic invocation that spams a Hydra which allows it to just auto target all the enemies that are basically on your screen even slightly off screen, it's basically a turret that does huge damage and it's very easy to continue to resummon it through a combo of abilities. That combo of abilities also allows you to keep moving through the map you're dashing forward. And then you're getting a ton of ward doing so especially if you go through Frost Wall and you have Flame Ward proced, so you get a ton of ward, ton of survivability, but more than that you're constantly dashing forward allowing basically a minion in this case, a construct do all the damage for you while you can continue to move and it does some really big damage. This is a very fun build, it is very fast-paced and it is really tanky which allows you to go really high in the corruption.

Number 3: Echo Warpath Void Knight (A-Tier)

The Echo Warpath Void Knight build is a unique and powerful choice for speed farming. Void Knights are masters of chaos and can channel their energy into a spinning attack called Warpath. With the Echo specialization, this build gains additional benefits and becomes even faster and deadlier, making it an excellent option for speed farming.

Number 4: Squirrel Beastmaster (A-Tier)

With this, you're using the unique interaction with the herald of the scurry helmet, the unique that transforms your wolves into squirrels at a 2:1 ratio allowing your maximum 5 wolves to become 10 squirrels. And they go absolutely nuts on the battlefield. When you start an echo they'll instantly start attacking things for you, you can get them to 100% crit, their crits can do really big crit numbers allowing them to attack and kill especially single target high health mops very fast. They do lack a little bit of AOE, but that doesn't stop you from just fury leaping using your transversal skill all the way from start to finish in a map allowing you to clear it really quick. They do a ton of damage and have good survivability, so you can go into high corruption with it and just do it very fast. Once again, getting as many rewards as possible as quickly as possible.

Number 5: Fire Wraith Necromancer (B-Tier)

As a minion build, it allows the minions to do the damage while you just keep moving. This one can be considered a little bit slower if you're a lot of the minions over and over again. However, with the experimental effects to have the minions just teleport with you, it's much quicker because they just keep moving with you and you can basically just keep transplanting all the way to the end of the maps. The other thing is they will kill all the mobs for you. The flame race hit really hard and just like the Hydrahedron, it's basically a turrent where you just keep moving and they will kill everything for you while you work your way towards the objective getting yourself closer to those rewards as fast as possible.
