How Does Offline Mode Work In Last Epoch?
Last Epoch has a somewhat unorthodox way of handling offline play.
The game has two different offline modes to choose from: Play Offline and True Offline.
One is accessed from the main menu, while the other must be selected before launching the game.
Both modes are virtually identical and only differ in chat functionality.
We will cover the exact differences in the next subsection.
If you switch to Online Play, your character will not transfer.
In other words,if you create an offline character, they cannot play co-op or trade items.
Character Transfers (Or Lack Thereof)
Online characters may not be transferred to offline play and vice versa.
Once you create an online character, they may only be used online.
Similarly, offline characters may only be played in offline modes.
Additionally, load times and input latency are significantly reduced while playing offline.
Combat will generally feel more responsive, and load times between zones will be faster.

Server Downtime
Online players will occasionally be unable to play Last Epoch due to server maintenance.

Server downtime has no impact on offline functionality.
Conversely, those who prefer playing at their own pace might prefer offline play.
Should You Play In Offline Mode?
If you play offline, join the Circle of Fortune as soon as possible.
Prophecies and higher drop rates will offset the lack of player trading.
If you don’t care about co-op or trading, there’s no harm playing offline.
