Last Epoch Keys - Dungeon Access and Trading Guide

In Last Epoch, dungeons serve as a pinnacle of endgame content, offering challenging encounters, valuable loot, and unique rewards. Accessing these dungeons requires the use of Dungeon Keys, which are consumable items that allow players to enter these instanced areas. Understanding how to obtain, use, and trade these keys is crucial for progressing through Last Epoch’s endgame.

How Do Dungeons Work in Last Epoch?

Dungeons are standalone zones with fixed objectives, difficult bosses, and increasingly rewarding mechanics. Players enter dungeons using a Dungeon Key that corresponds to the specific dungeon. Each run consumes one key per player.

Dungeon mechanics vary — some emphasize survival, others offer strategic choices or loot-based mini-games. Dungeons often reward unique gear, crafting materials, boss-specific drops, and allow access to certain vendors or mechanics (like Legendary Crafting).

How to Obtain Dungeon Keys

Dungeon Keys can be found through:

• Monolith Echoes: Random drops during endgame monolith farming
• Rare Enemies and Bosses: Especially in Empowered Timelines
• Arena Chests: From completing Arena challenges
• Certain Quest Rewards or Chests
• Trading with other players (if you're part of the Merchant’s Guild)

Keys are tradable, making them a valuable commodity among players who want frequent access to dungeon-specific rewards.
