Which to use for what
- Technical lookup of affixes and stat rangesBetter pick: Last Epoch Info (TunkLab)
TunkLab has type-cataloged database with precise stat ranges. Fandom has info but in narrative format, less browseable.
- Defense, ward, damage calculatorsBetter pick: Last Epoch Info (TunkLab)
TunkLab has dedicated calculators no other hub provides. Fandom has no interactive tools.
- Quest walkthroughs and loreBetter pick: Last Epoch Fandom Wiki
Fandom has detailed quest walkthroughs and extensive lore articles. TunkLab is technical reference, not narrative.
- Patch history and historic changesBetter pick: Last Epoch Fandom Wiki
Fandom has compiled patch history. TunkLab updates current patch data without maintaining a past-versions archive.
- Modern UIBetter pick: Last Epoch Info (TunkLab)
TunkLab UI is spartan but functional without ads. Fandom has corporate cluttered UI with heavy ads.
Both serve as "reference" but with totally different propositions. TunkLab (lastepoch.tunklab.com) is a technical database with dedicated calculators; Fandom (lastepoch.fandom.com) is a narrative wiki with historical coverage.
Each one's proposition
TunkLab provides browseable tables of items, affixes, uniques, skills, monolith timelines, factions, plus defense/ward/damage calculators no other hub offers. The info is dense, technical, no storytelling. For theorycrafters who need precise stat ranges or want to model ward decay, TunkLab is the choice.
Fandom provides a traditional wiki with narrative articles. Items have their stats but also narrative descriptions, history, related items, lore connections. Covers quests, characters, temporal eras, complete bestiary. For players who want to understand the world or look up a quest walkthrough, Fandom is better.
Technical lookup
TunkLab wins clearly. The Equipment section lists items by type with all possible affixes, tier ranges, level requirements in table format — exactly what you need when crafting.
Fandom has the info but embedded in narrative articles. Lookup requires more reading effort.
Calculators
TunkLab has dedicated calculators for defense (HP, armor, dodge, glancing blow, resistances → effective HP), ward (decay rate, generation, max → per-second dynamics), damage (base, multipliers, conditional → final output). No other site in the ecosystem provides this.
Fandom has no calculators. It's read-only reference.
Lore and narrative
Fandom wins. Has extensive articles on Eterra's history, main characters, narrative connections between temporal eras. For players who want to understand the game's world, Fandom is the only decent option (lastepoch.wiki is catching up but Fandom has more legacy).
TunkLab doesn't cover lore at all.
Quest walkthroughs
Fandom has per-chapter quest walkthroughs. Useful for players stuck on a specific quest.
TunkLab doesn't cover quests.
When each wins
| Use case | Winner | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Technical affix lookup | TunkLab | Precise browseable tables |
| Defense/ward/damage calculators | TunkLab | Only site with these |
| Quest walkthroughs | Fandom | Per-chapter coverage |
| Lore and narrative | Fandom | Only one with depth here |
| Patch history archive | Fandom | Chronological compile |
| Modern UI without ads | TunkLab | Spartan but functional |
| Mobile reading | TunkLab | Fandom mobile horrible due to ads |
Recommendation
Don't pick one — use both for different reference needs.
- TunkLab for theorycraft, crafting, technical stat lookup, calculators.
- Fandom for lore, quest walkthroughs, history.
For players only interested in mechanics (not lore), TunkLab alone is enough. For players who want to appreciate the game's world, Fandom is a good complement.
Mobile: TunkLab wins easily. Fandom mobile is painful due to ads.
