During the livestream reveal of Path of Exile 2: Dawn of the Hunt, we discussed several things in the Q&A that we'd like to provide some further clarification on. In today's news post we'd like to start with additional information about Map Portals in Dawn of the Hunt!

Map Portals

We'd like to clarify the situation with having to use portals each time you die. The concern raised during the Q&A was that you would be consuming portals to have to store items in your stash or trade with players. With so few portals, as low as one, you would not be able to leave the map and return.We have made the following change to address this problem:You will now be able to enter and exit your Maps as much as you like as long as you haven't died. The number of portals is now representative of the number of revives you have during the Map, so if you are able to survive you can come and go as you please.We also wanted to clarify that when returning to a map after dyin...

Update on Path of Exile 1

We announced last week some unfortunate news regarding the timeline for 3.26.0 for Path of Exile 1. Coming out of that we have adjusted some of our internal resources to be able to provide you with some content to fill the time until that expansion arrives.To start with we'll be running a one-month event that has some of our whacky ideas that never quite made it off the brainstorm board.What does Path of Exile 1 look like when the nineteen Ascendancy Classes you know and are familiar with are all of a sudden replaced by a different nineteen? What does Path of Exile 1 look like when you get to play a Witch and ascend to become a Harbinger? These are the questions our design team asked each other and in this event will provide you with some of our answers.We'll release more details about this content soon but we're really looking forward to seeing how the community reacts to some of our more unhinged ideas.There's more to announce and we'll keep you updated ...

Since we announced our plans for the Path of Exile 1 event a couple of days ago, we’ve been working on implementing all the ideas we’ve got for new Ascendancies. The event has also received an official name, the Legacy of Phrecia, to commemorate the great Emperor and the inspiration he gave us.Over the next few days we’ll be showcasing all the Ascendancy classes we came up with, but as a start, take a look at Harbinger (Witch) and Gambler (Duelist). Please note that these are still work in progress and might be adjusted closer to the start of the event.

Harbinger (Witch)

Become a Harbinger, manipulating the bounds of reality itself. The Harbinger specializes in Time Magic as well as summoning Harbinger allies from their homeworld to assist you in combat. As a bonus you also get to fly and be blue.

Gambler (Duelist)

Are you the kind of player who likes to play against the odds? This is the perfect class for risk lovers who want to experience the high... Read more

The Legacy of Phrecia event will feature a new system for specialising in endgame content, replacing the existing Atlas Passive Skill Tree. As you progress through the endgame you'll find Idols, which can be placed into a new tab on the Map Receptacle UI to modify your maps.Magic Idols can have up to two modifiers, Rare Idols can have up to four modifiers, and there are Unique Idols for Keystones from the Atlas Passive Skill Tree. Idols are tradeable but they are not modifiable.This is a pretty drastic change to how the Endgame will play given the Atlas Tree has been such a fundamental part of the Endgame for some time, in many different formats and versions.One of the major changes is that it turns specializing into different leagues to be less deterministic because it relies on you finding items. On the other hand it adds a layer of excitement to item drops in the Endgame not previously there.This allows you to have an infinite number of differe... Read more

Last week we revealed all the details for the upcoming Legacy of Phrecia event in Path of Exile 1, but there are still a number of improvements we're making to the event. Check them out in this news postFaustus has discovered a supplier of Idols and will begin selling them in his Black Market if you make it worth his while. You’ll be able to gamble for Idols with Gold during the event after upgrading the Black Market in Kingsmarch.You’ll be able to sell your excess Idols to a vendor in exchange for new ones. For example if you sell three magic idols of the same base, you’ll receive one random magic idol of the same base type. Isla has developed a new attachment for her Prototype Recombinator. It can now recombinate Idols together! There are also some new Unique Idols that can alter the content you decide to run. For example the Twisted Wish Unique Idol will make Ultimatum Modifiers start a tier higher if possible while reducing the chance of certa... Read more
