Last Epoch Erza’s Ledger guide: Unique item choices, explained

The quest “Last Epoch Erza’s Ledger”is available in the early stages of the game and allows players to choose between two potent Unique items as a reward. These items can either enhance survivability or boost damage output. While only one can be obtained per playthrough, it should be noted that both Unique items have even more powerful versions available in the endgame. Therefore, the decision made during this quest will not have a significant impact on the overall gameplay.

With that being said, this article aims to assist you in deciding which item is more suitable for your build and provide guidance on how to complete the Last Epoch Erza’s Ledger side quest.

Understanding Last Epoch’s Side Quests: Erza’s Ledger and Artem’s Offer

Upon reaching The Council Chambers during the Ruined Era, players can unlock two side quests, namely Last Epoch Erza’s Ledger and Artem’s Offer. These quests become available as you progress through the main storyline and reach this particular area.

Upon arrival in town, make your way to the western edge of the chamber and approach either Erza or Artem, two NPCs stationed there. They will both assign you the task of going to Erza’s Study to retrieve his ledger. The ledger can be located in the northern corner of his chambers, marked on your minimap by a circular icon.

Once you have acquired it, you will need to make the decision of whether to give it to Erza or Artem. This choice will determine if you receive the Avarice Unique gloves or the Gambler’s Fallacy Unique amulet.

Avarice vs Gambler’s Fallacy: A Comparison of Unique Items in Last Epoch Erza’s Ledger

Erza’s Ledger Prize

In Last Epoch, handing over the ledger to Erza will grant you the Avarice Unique gloves. These gloves can greatly improve your elemental resistances, including fire, lightning, and cold, and also boost your leech rate. Furthermore, they allow for a percentage of your elemental damage to be converted into HP, making them a valuable source of HP sustain in the early stages of the game.

Artem’s Reward for You

If you give the ledger to Artem, you will receive the Gambler’s Fallacy Unique amulet, which grants a 100 percent increase in Critical Strike Chance if you haven’t performed a Critical Strike in a while. However, there is a caveat: your chance of landing a Critical Strike will be reduced by 50 percent right after you have successfully executed one.

This Unique item can greatly increase the damage output for builds that depend on consistent Critical Strike damage.

Maximizing Gains: How to Choose the Best Unique Item

It is advised to hand over the ledger to Erza in order to acquire the Avarice Unique gloves. While the Gambler’s Fallacy is a decent item, its maximum potential is best utilized on optimized builds that may be more challenging to attain in the beginning stages of the game. Conversely, the gloves can enhance any build and greatly enhance your character’s durability in the early game.
