Where to obtain the Syphon of Anguish in Last Epoch

You can obtain the Syphon of Anguish by defeating Shade of Orbyss. It's one of Orbyss' unique item drops at any point once you access the Monolith of Fate section of Last Epoch. During your Monolith encounters, you'll come across a node called Echo of A World, where you'll find Shade of Orobyss in one of five different forms.

  • Blood Form
  • Storm Form
  • Vile Form
  • Infernal Form
  • Frost Form

Defeating Shade of Orbyss is a bit difficult if you're still experimenting with your build, and you'll need to bring your A-game to take it down. Once you do, you'll get the Syphon of Anguish and a possible increase or decrease in corruption, which, in turn, creates empowered monoliths.

Based on these affixes, these are the primary best class builds that come to mind:

  • Void Knight (any build)

  • Shadow Daggers Marksman Build
  • Shatter Strike Spellblade Build

These builds have one thing in common: they use melee attacks and rely on procs to decimate their enemies. I can attest to these builds as I have a Shadow Daggers Bladedancer character, and I'm striving to get the Syphon of Anguish to boost my gear for the entirety of the Monolith adventure.
