Sure, here’s the revised article:

So, crazy story: Last Epoch, yep, that action RPG with the time travel and all that jazz, just stirred things up with some cool (or maybe not?) updates. This thing called Assassinate mode is coming for minions. Sounds intense, right? The game’s developers spilled the beans on their forum — which I only check when procrastinating, honestly — about what’s dropping in the new season.
Oh, and in case you’ve been living under a rock, Last Epoch’s been out since 2024. It’s one of those games where you can time travel and mess around in dungeons. Loads of replay value, they say. You’re thrown into five classes and, bam, off you go. Season two, Tombs of the Erased, just kicked off recently, throwing new zones and big bad bosses our way.
Now back to the minions. Season 3 is dropping soon (I should really mark my calendar), and these little buddies of ours are getting an upgrade. With Assassinate mode, they’ll target enemies from afar, going after those pesky rare ones and bosses. It’s like they got binoculars or something. But then, there’s Protect mode, keeping them close by. Handy if you like playing it safe. Guess there are icons involved to keep track of all this — swords for Assassinate, shields for Protect. I’m sure I’ll mess that up initially.
And apparently, they’re also tuning how minions choose targets. So no more chaotic ping-ponging between enemies, hopefully. Fingers crossed.
Anyway — oh wait, more updates. The Beastmaster’s minions are getting snazzier with new nodes for the Raptor, Scorpion, and Bear. Plus, and this cracked me up, you can mess around with cosmetics even when offline. Just got to do a little setup first. Seems like they finally listened to the players.
Moving right along, the Merchants’ Guild is getting a bit of love too. Filters for easier shopping and tokens because who has time to rack up favors, right? They’re overhauling a bunch of stuff, honestly. Probably to keep us glued to the screen.
So yeah, buckle up because Season 3 hits on August 21. Exciting times ahead for Last Epoch fans, I’d say. Or maybe not, but you’ll see.
