The previous content patch for Last Epoch introduced the Temporal Sanctum, the game’s first-ever dungeon. The recent Update 0.8.4e applies some changes to the said dungeon, specifically to the uniques dropped Chronomancer Julra. This beta patch also introduces new equipment affixes for the Primalist and Rogue.
Chronomancer Julra awaits you at the end of the Temporal Sanctum. Defeating her will not only grant you access to the Eternity Cache but also give you one of the four uniques specific to her. Here are the things that you can expect:
- Each dungeon tier introduces a new unique to the pool of uniques she may drop.
- The unique always has at least 1 legendary potential.
- The unique is always accompanied by a matching exalted item with four affixes.
- For slots with class-specific items, the matching exalted item is always compatible with your class.
You can use the Unique equipment she drops to craft Legendary items via the Eternity Cache.
Anyway, when you use the Druid’s Swarmblade form, Dive now scales with movement speed, much quicker to use. Moreover, manually summoning Locusts is faster now as its cast speed is increased by 33%.

- Added a new body armor prefix: Level of Swarmblade Form and increased damage while transformed
