He ordered a new one right before lockdown and now he's stuck with that one!

While New Zealand remains in lockdown, our team continues to work from their homes. In this novel time, we thought it would be neat to take a look behind the scenes and see what particular setups our developers have managed to create at home!

As with all league releases, in Path of Exile: Delirium we introduced a number of unique items. For this news post we asked our design team to share their thoughts and processes behind creating these unique items.Our core goal for modern unique design is to create an item that you'd want to pick up and use, either by creating a new way of playing or enhancing a certain playstyle. For League uniques, many items are intended to be widely usable at a lower level of progression, while being greatly desirable for very specific builds late in progression. There are always exceptions to the rule though!

Keystone Jewels

The Keystone jewels were created from a long list of over 30 suggestions by designers, many of which weren't possible. More build-specific than normal keystones, these ones aimed to create or enhance niche interactions that could potentially promote new builds.One with Nothing and its keystone Hollow Palm Technique were the special...

What Happened with Purposeful Harbinger

Hi everyone, I want to take a moment to talk about a few things but in particular, the changes to the Purposeful Harbinger notable that we announced a few days ago. If you are not in the loop, here's what happened - The Cluster Jewel system in Path of Exile: Delirium introduced 281 new notable passive skills, including one called Purposeful Harbinger. This notable grants "10% increased Effect of Aura Buffs on You for each Herald affecting you". There were two issues with this notable. Firstly, it is severely numerically overpowered. Secondly, it was broken in that it affected game mechanics that it shouldn't have — anything that was internally classified as an aura — rather than just auras from skills as intended.Players quickly began to use the intended effects of Purposeful Harbinger in ways that were extremely strong. It became clear that builds centred around Purposeful Harbinger were the most powerful options in the game. The... Read more

Hey guys,I understand there's a lot of anger and upset over the recent changes, but that does not mean it's open season on people who may disagree with your point of view.Our Code of Conduct does apply here, please do not personally attack other users for their opinions, no matter how much you may disagree with them.

Later this week (Thursday or Friday NZ) we'll be releasing our next patch which contains further improvements to Delirium and some bug fixes. We've prepared a preview of what this patch contains by putting together the patch notes early.Delirium Improvements

• Active Legion encounters now cause Delirium mist to pause its movement during both the Frozen phase and the Combat phase (previously it was just the Frozen phase).


• Active Blight encounters now cause Delirium mist to pause its movement while you are within a large radius of Blight Portals, rather than the Ichor Pump. This is because Blight Portals can sometimes spawn very far away!


• Reduced the height of Delirium reward bars so that the top of the images is actually where you receive rewards.


• Reduced the volume of Vengeful Skyfire's meteor impact sound effects.

@Artish26 Appears you have already opened your free mystery box, would you check your in-game microtransaction for any new skill gem effects?

Thank you

@kethen Would you check if you may have possibly received a Hideout decoration at all? You should be able to do so using the edit feature while your character is in your in-game hideout. Read more

Hey guys!Sorry for my delay on getting back to everyone about this, we have been discussing with Sony the best way to go about making sure everyone gets their money back from those purchases that should not have been made available on the PSN store.If you've experienced this error it's because the purchase that was made on your account was for a pack that should not have been made available by Sony on the PSN store. You have purchased one of the intermediate upgrade packs (which should have only been visible in-game once you had purchased the lower pack beneath it). The price of that upgrade pack does not accurately charge the price of the entire Supporter Pack you attempted to purchase.Due to the way our purchasing and payments work with Sony, we're unable to credit another pack to the account in it's place, and so a refund is the only possible recourse we have. We have spoken with Sony about this and they have removed the packs that should not have been available, and we have provid... Read more

Changes to the Purposeful Harbinger Notable Passive

The Cluster Jewel system in Path of Exile: Delirium introduced 281 new notable passive skills, including one called Purposeful Harbinger. This skill grants "10% increased Effect of Aura Buffs on You for each Herald affecting you".Internally within Path of Exile, there are a whole lot of things that are treated as Auras that players don't think of as Auras and should not be affected by this passive skill. But they are, and it's a really big problem for this skill to interact with them. The skill was never intended to interact with these and should have said something like "x% increased Effect of Aura Buffs from Skills on you per Herald affecting you". This is something we can control that doesn't arbitrarily break internal systems that aren't meant to have their values modified.We have decided to fix this in a patch later this week by making Purposeful Harbinger only apply to Auras from Skills. After the fix, Purposefu... Read more
