Chapter 5: The End of Time
The End of Time serves as a pivotal location, leading players into Last Epoch's primary endgame system, the Monolith of Fate. This chapter marks the transition from the campaign to advanced challenges, offering a branching mapping system, targetable rewards, and scalable difficulty.
Once the campaign is completed, players will head to the Monolith of Fate, located to the East of The End of Time. This endgame system features:
- A branching mapping system
- Targetable rewards
- Boss encounters
- Modifiers and difficulty scaling
The Monolith of Fate is composed of different Timelines, each offering its own web, Quests, Boss, rewards, and Blessings.
The Lightless Arbor Dungeon, found in the Last Refuge area of the Ruined Era, can be accessed by heading to The Surface waypoint and following the path. Inside, players will encounter a dark forest where a Burning Amber crystal provides light. This crystal can be controlled using the Dungeon ability Illumination to scout ahead.
One phase within the Lightless Arbor involves fighting an invulnerable enemy on a platform. To progress, players must use their Burning Amber to ignite Pyres around the platform while avoiding enemy attacks. Lighting both Pyres opens a gateway to the next phase.
