This holiday season is packed with action! Over the next five weeks, our players will challenge themselves in six types of Path of Exile events, including three new ones which we've never run before. In this news post we've gathered everything you need to know about these events, but first, check out the trailer below!
Face the darkness of the Azurite Mine and forget everything else in this returning event. You begin the event in the Mine Encampment and cannot leave the Mine. All you can do is Delve. All sulphite costs have been removed, and the Mine scales from level 1 instead of its usual scaling.We're not completely heartless, so you have some help. You start with a stack of Scrolls of Wisdom and some powerful unique items. Lilly Roth has shown up in the mine encampment to sell you gems, and she's running a special offer — all gems cost only a single Scroll of Wisdom. At level 1, and every 10 character levels until level 70, you gain 3 passive skill points to make up for the ones you'd normally get from quests. And of course the Altar of Ascendancy is available, granting you 2 Ascendancy passive skill points when you reach levels matching the area level of each Labyrinth. But you can't escape Kitava's curses either — you lose resistances and start incurring an experience penalty on death when you reach levels 40 and 70.If you played last year's Endless Delve event, the main difference this time is the rework to the Azurite Mine from 3.16.0. However, there are a couple more changes. Firstly, Lilly Roth will now accept divination card turn-ins if you manage to gather a full set of a card. Secondly, early level scaling has changed to accommodate the changes to normal Delve scaling. The area level of the mines now matches the depth until depth 77, where it merges into normal Delve level scaling.

Path of Exile: Royale is returning for three days over the holiday period. If you haven't played Royale before, you can read all about it here. But that's not all — this version of Royale has a twist! At roughly 8 minutes into the round, Brutus will spawn in the centre of the safe zone, chained up and inactive.

If you love Heist's cast of colourful rogues now, think how much more you'll love them after being stuck with them for ten days! In the Endless Heist event, you begin in the Rogue Harbour and are unable to leave except to run Contracts and Blueprints. Contracts no longer cost Rogue Markers to run, and Contracts and Blueprints are available in large quantities so that you can play Heists non-stop.Your character starts with two level 1 Contracts in their inventory. The display case at the end of a Contract is guaranteed to drop another Contract, scaling its area level with your character level. Enemies can also occasionally drop Contracts. If you ever run out, Adiyah has a stockpile of Contracts she'll sell you for bargain prices. From area level 50 onwards, Contract display cases will also have a chance to drop a Blueprint. Quest Contracts and Unique Contracts will not be available in this event.Just like Endless Delve, Lilly Roth has shown up to sell you gems and accept divination card turn-ins. You start with unique items and extra Scrolls of Wisdom, and you gain passive skill points, Ascendancy passive skill points, and Kitava's curses as you level up.

Horrors from other worlds have invaded through the Map Device, and are rampaging through Wraeclast. This event works much more like a normal Path of Exile league than the previous events, but every area (other than the Twilight Strand) contains five endgame map bosses who are eager to turn you into mince. Should you kill them, they are guaranteed to drop unique items. Any boss that can be witnessed by The Maven can potentially appear, so try not to let the temptation go to your head when The Shaper shows up in the Mud Flats! Endgame map areas also contain these extra bosses.

In this event, your Exile has finally succumbed to Delirium. Almost every campaign and endgame map area has permanent Delirium fog, ranging randomly from 1% to 100% Delirium. This has all the usual effects — monsters getting buffed, new monsters spawning, reward bars filling with kills, and Simulacrum splinters dropping. To avoid spam-refreshing areas being the best strategy, each area always has the same delirium percentage, and Delirium reward types are randomised each time they drop. We've made sure that campaign areas where you have to kill certain monsters aren't too crazy… mostly.Mirrors of Delirium cannot spawn in this event. If you get your hands on a Delirious map, it functions as normal, overriding the special rules of this event.

Unfortunately, we're not able to run these events on console this time around as they're new event types and if they require any fixes we wouldn't be able to get those through certification over the holiday period. Delve has had some updates which would need to go through various certifications to be compatible with console again and it won't be possible in time for the event starting. Once these events have taken place on PC, it's our hope that we can get them ready for console so they can be run simultaneously on all platforms if we run them again.

I start to suspect the only way to get a response is writing an email to Tencent complain department which will then take action because GGG doesn't even bother to give a reply at all besides copy-paste one X days ago how it's all because updating issues if some problems arise but hey - straight abandoning consoles for whole December where PC players enjoy multitude of events seems fair for you.

Hey there, QinLie.The Community Team has posted about this here. I hope this helps to clear things up for you.

Hey there, Exiles!I was not certain which post QinLie was referring to so I thought to provide the link to the Community Team's post about the console events in case it was useful. I hope it might still be useful for others who come here trying to find any news about this.I'm very sorry that the console versions are not able to take part in the December events, but I am afraid that what the Community Team explains in the above-linked post explains why we weren't able to run these on console this time around.

Hey there, QinLie!I'm really sorry to hear that this is how you feel. I'll be passing your feedback along to the appropriate team members (along with the sentiments provided by others in this thread and others) in the hopes that we might do better in the future.Additionally, if you have linked your console Path of Exile account to your Twitch account you would still be able to earn the Twitch drops we have scheduled for these events by watching any Path of Exile streams while the drops are available. This may at least be a good opportunity to get some new portal effects.

Hey there, QinLie!Just to clarify, while some players might enjoy watching the events being played by PC players even if they themselves can't participate on console, you also do not need to watch people playing the PC version of Path of Exile to qualify for the drops - console streamers will still count.
