Path of Exile 2 Goes Temporarily Free-to-Play While Dropping Big New Update

The Third Edict content update adds Act 4, the next chapter in the Path of Exile 2 storyline, continuing on from Act 3. Doryani has agreed to help you find an ancient weapon that can be used against corruption. The instrument of the Third Edict. Journey to Kingsmach, hire a ship, and set sail!

• Discover the Ngamakanui archipelago, home to the Karui tribes. From the pristine beaches of Whakapanu Island to the volcanic shores of the Isle of Kin, there are eight islands to explore, each with its own dangers and of course, bosses!
• Act Four is completely non-linear and you can visit the islands in any order you choose.

Start fresh in a new economy with the Rise of the Abyssals league. All of your old characters from the Early Access launch are still present but a free passive tree refund has been granted due to the changes. We would highly encourage you to join the new leagues to fully take in the changes we’ve made with the 0.3.0 update.

• Created by forbidden necromantic magic during the age of the Precursors, the Abyssal have been biding their time underground. Now, obeying the will of their General, they are emerging from the depths through fissures spreading across all of Wraeclast. Fight this ancient evil, seal the fissures, and resist the rise of the Abyssals in Path of Exile 2’s first full League!
• In your travels throughout Wraeclast you will encounter fissures in the ground, sapping the life force of the monsters above. Slaying these monsters will trigger the Abyssal to emerge, enhanced with extra necromantic abilities from those who power they were draining. You will need to defeat them to close the Abyss.
• Abysses increase in size, power and variety as you go through the game. Closing them will reveal Abyssal troves with valuable items, and sometimes allow you to travel underground to engage with the Abyssal directly.
• As you close the Abysses, you may find ancient bones that can be used to imbue your items with abyssal magic, adding hidden Abyssal modifiers. Using the Well of Souls, which you discover in Act Two, you can reveal the Desecrated modifier and choose to transform it by selecting one of three different options. During the campaign this allows you to more easily craft additional regular mods onto your items. During the endgame, new and powerful mods that were not previously possible to craft will be unlocked.The Well of Souls can also affect your Waystones, granting new modifiers that will push difficulty and rewards to new heights
• Delve into the Abyssal Depths, swarming with legions of the undead and guarding powerful rewards. Discover an ominous Ancient Spire and challenge the Abyssal commanders in their attempt to plunge Wraeclast into a lightless void.
• There are Standard, Hardcore and Solo Self-Found variations of the Rise of the Abyssals league available. They have the same core mechanics and items, and you can create private league versions of these leagues.

Support gem are an area that got some of the most major changes to the core design. They are what enable so many interesting mechanics and different ways to play, but PoE2’s support gem system has just never been quite right.

• One of the major issues is the limitation of only having one support gem of each type on your character. We didn’t want builds to become just using the same 5 most powerful supports on every skill, but we also wanted to encourage you to combo your abilities.
• We’ve removed the restriction of having one of each support gem per character. You can use as many copies as you like.
• Many Supports now have multiple tiers as you progress through the game, providing different stat values, additional stats, or perhaps working a bit different to their lower-tier counterparts. Due to these changes, many existing support gems (which will now be tier 1 for cases where multiple tiers now exist) have received small numerical balance changes, and the effects of some support gems have been combined into a single gem.
• We’ve added 11 new Support Gems with 0.3.0.
• We’ve also introduced 40 Lineage Supports, much more powerful Supports that are only available in Endgame.
• A number of Support Gems with simple effects have been renamed with names that more obviously hint at their functionality.
• Blood in the Eyes, Discombobulate, Unsteady Tempo, Unbating, Unbending, Untouchable, and Unyielding can no longer be engraved in the Gemcutting menu, and existing Gems will be deleted upon logging in.
• Updated the wording for Support Gems which add a Cooldown to Supported Skills. This has not resulted in a change in functionality with the exception of Expanse Support, which incorrectly had a 6 second Cooldown when it stated 8 seconds. It now correctly has an 8 second Cooldown.
• Updated the description of Last Gasp Support to mention that supported minions die before the support’s duration expires if they take damage exceeding their maximum life while fatally wounded. This functionality was already present but was previously not mentioned.
• Support Gems which support skills “you use yourself” can no longer support Persistent Skills. They can still support gems that have both a persistent component and a manually activated component, such as Plague Bearer.
• In addition, we’ve fixed a bug where numerous supports which support skills “you use yourself” could support skills used by totems or triggered skills. These no longer do so unless they specify otherwise.
• Clarified the wording of Muster Support to refer specifically to the number of different reviving minions you have. This is not a functional change.
• Having a Skill with socketed Support Gems you do not meet the attribute requirements for now disables just those Supports instead of disabling the entire Skill.
• The Lightning/Cold/Fire/Chaos Infusion Support Gems have been renamed to Lightning/Cold/Fire/Chaos Attunement.

• Added a new Strength Skill Gem — Fortifying Cry: Perform a Warcry that grants Guard and causes subsequent Shield Attacks to release an Empowered shockwave when dealing damage. This Skill’s cooldown can be bypassed by expending an Endurance Charge.
• Added a new Strength Skill Gem — Forge Hammer: Hurl a fiery hammer that Slams into the ground and lodges there. While the hammer is lodged in the ground, reusing this Skill recalls the hammer and resets the Skill’s cooldown. Alternatively, using a Warcry near the lodged hammer causes it to shatter, releasing a number of Molten Fissures in a spiral.
• Added a new Strength Skill Gem — Ancestral Cry: Perform a Warcry using Glory gained by Igniting enemies to turn you into an embodiment of Kaom. While embodying Kaom, your footsteps Trigger Volcanic Steps, Melee Strikes and Slams are Ancestrally Boosted, and your Melee Attack Hits Trigger Volcanic Eruption.
• Added a new Dexterity Skill Gem — Toxic Domain: Create an area of Toxic Bloom on the ground around you. While in the Bloom, you have increased Skill costs, regenerate Life, and your Projectile Attacks attach a Toxic Pustule, which can be Poisoned, Pustules will Detonate after a duration or when enough Poison has been applied, dealing damage and applying Poison in an area around it.
• Added a new Dexterity Skill Gem — Ice-Tipped Arrows: Ready your active Bow or Spear, Empowering your next Barrageable Bow or Projectile Spear Attacks to create Ice Fragments on hit. This Skill’s cooldown can be bypassed by expending a Frenzy Charge.
• Added a new Intelligence Skill Gem — Frost Darts: Conjures a number of icy Projectiles that launch towards the target. Projectiles that Hit a Chilled or Frozen target create chunks of ice that deal additional damage on impacting the ground. Consumes a Cold Infusion if possible to cause each Projectile to lodge into the enemy then explode.
• Added a new Strength Persistent Buff Gem — Iron Ward: While active, stores a percentage of the Physical damage that is prevented by your Armour or other sources of damage reduction. Using this Skill releases the stored damage as a nova of spikes.
• Added a new Strength/Dexterity Persistent Buff Gem — Mortar Cannon: Raises a cannon Totem which uses socketed Grenaded Skills, with significantly improved Cooldown Recovery Rate.
• Added a new Dexterity Persistent Buff Gem — Mirage Archer: While active, dodge rolling will create a Mirage that uses socketed ranged Attacks for a short duration, then vanish. You cannot create another Mirage while one exists, or for a short time after one vanishes. Dodge rolling while you are unable to create a new Mirage will restart this timer.
• Added a new Intelligence Persistent Buff Gem — Ravenous Swarm: While active and enemies are nearby, swarms of insects emerge from your body to pursue enemies. The swarms are untargetable Minions that periodically Attack and Poison enemies within the swarm.
• Added a new Intelligence Persistent Buff Gem — Siphon Elements: While active, has a chance to create an Infusion Remnant when you Freeze, Shock or Ignite a target.
• Grim Feast has been completely reworked and re-enabled. Instead of granting energy shield, it now allows you to collect remnants from your dead Reviving Minions, then activate the skill to instantly Revive Minions based on their maximum life.
• Added a new Keystone Passive Skill to the north-west of the Monk starting location: Hollow Palm Technique. This Keystone allows you to use Quarterstaff attacks while unarmed and grants those attacks additional benefits while used unarmed.
• Added a new Keystone Passive Skill to the north-east of the Witch/Sorceress starting location: Ritual Cadence. This Keystone changes your Invocations to trigger skills every 2 seconds instead of all at once, but triggered skills consume less Energy.
• Added a new Keystone Passive Skill to the north-west of the Witch/Sorceress starting location: Blackflame Covenant. This Keystone causes Fire Spells to convert Fire Damage to Chaos Damage, with this damage contributing to ignite chance and magnitude, and ignites inflicted with these spells dealing Chaos Damage.
• Added a new Keystone Passive Skill to the east of the Monk’s starting location: Walker of the Wilds. This Keystone causes Mana Leech to recover based on Elemental Damage Types instead of Physical Damage.
• Added the following new Currency Orbs that start dropping from late campaign and Maps: Greater Orb of Transmutation, Perfect Orb of Transmutation, Greater Orb of Augmentation, Perfect Orb of Augmentation, Greater Chaos Orb, Perfect Chaos Orb, Greater Regal Orb, Perfect Regal Orb, Greater Exalted Orb, and Perfect Exalted Orb. These Greater and Perfect Orbs each have their own minimum modifier levels for the modifier they add to an item.
• Added a new type of currency, Hinekora’s Lock, which can be used to foresee the result of the next Currency item used on it. Modifying the item in any way removes the ability to foresee.
• Added over 10 new Unique items.
• Added over 50 new base item types.
• Added over 20 new Endgame Maps.
• Added 15 new Omens.
• Continued to incrementally improve the sound, art, effects and environments.

• Currently, access to most Pinnacle Content requires the same key at the easiest, and most difficult version of the content. This creates a negative feeling where at lower difficulties, instead of wanting to run the content, you’re often better off just selling it to someone who can run it at maximum difficulty.
• To address this, each content (excluding The Arbiter of Ash) will now drop Splinters, which will not form into singular Items. Instead of using the singular, combined item in the Realmgate, you can now just bring your Splinters. Upon inserting the splinters into the Realmgate, an interface will appear allowing you to pick your difficulty, each with a different entry cost.
• As a result of this change, the corresponding Atlas Passive Trees no longer affects the difficulty of the content, and has been changed to purely affect the content in the Maps on the Atlas.
• Existing Simulacrums, Breachstones and Audience for the Kings can be right clicked to grant 100 of the relevant Splinter (they can no longer be used in the Realmgate).
• The Arbiter of Ash Boss fight is now a static difficulty encounter with infinite portals (previously only infinite portals at difficulty 0). The rewards of this fight now match the previous difficulty 4 rewards.
• The Arbiter of Ash Atlas Passive Skill Tree has been removed, and some of the bonuses have become inherent to The Arbiter of Ash’s drops.
• Added a Uber version of The Arbiter of Ash Boss fight, which requires the new Calamity Fragments to access. These are obtained from Citadel Bosses, but only once you’ve allocated the maximum number of points in your Boss Atlas Passive Tree, ensuring those Citadels are at their highest difficulty.
• Acquiring Map Boss Atlas Passive points has been adjusted. These are now obtained by:
• Slaying a Map Boss in an area level 79+ Map that has at least 6 Modifiers.
• Slaying a Map Boss in an area level 80+ Map that has at least 6 Modifiers.
• Slaying a Anomaly Map Boss in an area level 79+ Map that has at least 6 Modifiers.
• Slaying a Citadel Map Boss in an area level 79+ Map that has at least 6 Modifiers.
• Completing the Pinnacle of Flame Quest.
• Olroth, Origin of the Fall no longer spawns in Logbooks.
• Mysterious anomalies can now appear on the Atlas.
• Modifiers on Waystones has been reworked. Now every Modifier comes with a downside (e.g. Monsters deal 20% of Damage as Extra Cold), a specific upside (e.g. +10% to Monster Pack Size) and some amount of additional Waystone Drop Chance.
• Downside Modifiers have been made weaker to account for the ability to have more present than before.
• Unidentified Corrupted Waystones can now be used to access a Corrupted Nexus.
• Waystones can no longer have greater than 8 modifiers when Corrupted.
• Items found in very high level areas that can have random quality can now have up to 30% quality. Quality currency still cannot apply more than 20% Quality to an item.
• Items that can have a maximum of 2 Sockets now have a very low chance of generating with 3 Sockets in high tier Maps.
• Items that can have a maximum of 1 Socket now have a very low chance of generating with 2 Sockets in high tier Maps.
• The Abyss Map has been renamed to Marrow.

• The Detailed Records Expedition Notable Passive Skill now provides +1 to Level of Expedition Logbooks found in your Maps, and Expedition Logbooks found in your Maps always have 4 Implicit Modifiers (previously 3). It no longer provides 30% increased Quantity of Logbooks dropped by Runic Monsters in your Maps.
• The He Approaches Ritual Notable Passive Skill now provides Revived Monsters from Ritual Altars in your Maps have 40% increased chance to Magic/Rare (previously 20%). It no longer causes Ritual Favours in your Maps to have a 30% increased chance to contain an Audience with the King.

• Essences now have 4 tiers: Lesser, Normal, Greater, and Perfect.
• Instead of adding a modifier of a certain tag, Essences now add a specific modifier, depending on the Tier of Essence and type of item it is being applied to.
• Lesser, Normal, and Greater Essences can upgrade a Magic item to Rare, adding a guaranteed modifier.
• Perfect Essences and Essences obtained through Corruption remove a random modifier and augments a Rare item with a new guaranteed modifier.
• Added 7 new types of Essences.
• Essences of Torment have been renamed to Essences of Abrasion.
• Essence of Hysteria now augments different guaranteed modifiers based on the type of item it is applied to.

• Unique Strongboxes now have their own unique minimap icons.
• Added a Minimap icon to The Rain Festival Beetle monster (from the Unique Strongbox).
• Delwyn no longer appears alongside Azmerian Wisps during the Campaign after the first time you encounter him.
• Azmeri Spirits now start appearing from Hunting Grounds and beyond, instead of in Grelwood.
• Skill and Persistent Buff Gems now sell to vendors for gold based on their level and quality.
• The Hooded One can no longer be placed in your Hideout. You are still able to identify items from him in towns. Doryani will continue to serve as the source of identifying items in your Hideout once you’ve completed the campaign.
• Certain boss arena entrances no longer have a teleport for party members to enter after the fight has started. These players can instead just walk in.
• You are now able to log directly into town or hideout by holding Ctrl while selecting a character (or Left-trigger + A/X when using a Controller).
• You can now use checkpoints to warp to the waypoint in an area as well as other checkpoints.
• Omens can now stack, with a maximum stack size of 10.
• Orb of Chance has received new 3D art.
• Uncut Skill, Support, and Reservation Gems can now be traded through the Currency Exchange.
• Party members can no longer fruitlessly attempt to open Expedition portals.
• NVIDIA Reflex has been re-enabled.

• When holding down the dodge roll button, your character will now go into a sprint after they finish the roll. Sprint is available on all character classes, and there is no limitation to how long you can sprint for.
• The primary purpose of this sprint feature is to make navigating areas faster when out of combat, though if you do take a hit while sprinting, you will fall to the ground.
• You can no longer socket multiple copies of the same Skill Gem into your main skill sockets. Skills not granted by gems and skills socketed into Persistent Buff Skill Gems do not count towards this limit. You can still have multiple copies of Spectres or Tamed Beasts, but only one of each kind of monster.
• NEW: Player Evasion now works on all hits except boss skills that have a red flash.
• NEW: The Evasion formula has been adjusted to lower the percentage of hits that will be evaded by a given amount of evasion.
• NEW: Monsters have 30% more Stun Buildup against players who have their Shield Raised, and ~12% more Stun Buildup vs players who are Parrying.
• Attribute Requirements on all Equipment items have been lowered, particularly at endgame. Endgame Base Types on average have around ~20-25% less Attribute Requirements.
• Attribute Requirements on Skill Gems have been lowered, particularly at endgame. Endgame Skill Gems on average have around ~20-25% less Attribute Requirements.
• Fire Damage no longer inherently has a chance to Ignite. Instead it inflicts Flammability on the enemy based on the damage dealt. Flammability is a debuff that lasts for 8 seconds on Monsters and grants all Fire Damage against the enemy (including the hit that applied Flammability) a chance to Ignite that enemy equal to their Flammability magnitude. Flammability lasts for 4 seconds on Players.
• Multiple hits can stack up Flammability independently, meaning that a target being hit frequently and/or hard enough will consistently have 100% chance to be ignited.
• Effects which don’t Hit but Ignite targets as though they did (such as from Incinerate or Ignited Ground) also inflict Flammability, but are not able to ignite targets until the target has 50% Flammability.
• Anything that removes, consumes or grants immunity to Ignite does the same for Flammability.
• These changes do not affect how ignite itself functions or is calculated once it has been applied.
• These changes also apply to any other non-fire damage that becomes capable of igniting, and to enemies. Some enemies deal non-ignite fire damage over time, which is not affected by these changes.
• NEW: The Arcane Surge Buff now grants 15% increased Cast Speed instead of 10% more Cast Speed.
• Shock now lasts 8 seconds on non-players by default (previously 4 seconds). It still lasts 4 seconds on players.
• Chill now lasts 8 seconds on non-players by default (previously 2 seconds). It still lasts 2 seconds on players. Chills on any target are now discarded if their magnitude is less than 30% (previously 5%).
• Overflow effects on Life, Mana and Energy Shield can now Overflow the maximum by up to 1.5 times (from 2 times)
• Light stun chances of less than 15% are now treated as 0% (previously described as less than 10%, but actually less than 20% for monsters being stunned and less than 12% for players being stunned).
• Elemental Exposure now has 15% less effect on Magic monsters, 30% less effect on Rare monsters, and 50% less effect on Unique monsters.

• Glory now decays if you haven’t gained any for 15 seconds (previously 30 seconds).
• Oil Ground’s duration is now refreshed when it catches fire.
• Gaining Guard while you already have Guard no longer replaces the existing Guard buff if the new amount of Guard you would gain would be lower that what you already had. Instead the duration of the existing Guard buff is extended proportional to the amount of Guard in the new buff compared to the old buff.
• Ice Crystals will now instantly shatter from hits that could Consume Freeze. As this is now default behaviour, Glacial Cascade and Fragmentation Rounds no longer specifically call out this behaviour.
• Added a new mechanic called Elemental Infusion that many Elemental Spells interact with. Some skills create Infusions of a specific element as Remnants on the ground, which can be picked up to grant you the Infusion. Other skills can consume Infusions of a specific type to grant additional bonuses depending on the skill. Some skills consume infusions that match the skill’s elemental type, while others have cross-elemental infusions.
• The following have been renamed to avoid confusion with the new Elemental Infusion mechanic:
• Amazon’s Infuse Weapon Skill has been renamed to Elemental Surge.
• Spire of Ire’s Chaotic Infusion Unique Skill has been renamed to Chaotic Surge.
• The Charge Infusion Skill has been renamed to Charge Regulation.
• Reloading a crossbow and switching crossbow ammunition no longer reduces the player’s movement speed.
• Blocking is no longer limited to Strikes and Projectiles by default. All hits that are not specifically unblockable (with the red flash) can be blocked.
• Raise Shield and Parry now require you to face the enemy that is hitting you, rather than the direction from which the hit originates. Some monster skills for which directionality is unclear have been changed to be blockable from any direction using these skills.
• Player, Minion and Monster base Maximum Block chance is now 50% (previously 75%).
• Effects which set a maximum for Volatility now properly do so instead of being additive with the default cap of 200.
• Players now gain +6 to Accuracy Rating per Level (previously +3), and each point of Dexterity now grants +6 to Accuracy Rating (previously +5).
• The Accuracy Falloff penalty now linearly interpolates from 2 metres down to 9 metres. The maximum penalty being 90% less Accuracy Rating at distances of 9 metres or further. Previously there was no maximum and at 14 metres you had 100% less Accuracy Rating.
• Player Minions now always Hit with their Attacks.
• Player Projectile Skills now fire a minimum of 1 projectile, even if they should fire 0.
• Swapping weapons is now instant.

• Elemental damage recouped as Life and Physical Damage recouped as life now display in the Life section of the Character panel.
• Clarified on the Stun Keyword that Monster Melee Damage has 33% more Light Stun chance and Heavy Stun buildup, and Monster Physical Damage has 100% more Light Stun chance and Heavy Stun buildup. These bonuses are multiplicative with each other. Note this is purely a description change.
• Updated the Ice Crystal Keyword to clarify that it blocks movement of smaller monsters, while larger monsters will destroy any crystals in their path.

• Stacks of Jade granted by the Jade Heritage Notable Passive Skill are no longer lost when taking Physical Damage from a Hit.
• Ancestral Spirits from the Answered Call Notable Passive Skill have also been improved. They now appear faster and start using skills sooner.

The type of Charge you generate is determined by the Attribute Requirements of your socketed Skill Gems. The higher the total Strength Requirement total of your socketed Skill Gems, the more likely you will be to generate an Endurance Charge. Higher total Dexterity Requirement corresponds to a higher chance for Frenzy Charges, and Intelligence to Power Charges.
• The Gem Studded Notable Passive Skill no longer grants You can use each type of Support Gem an additional time in different Skills. Instead, it now provides For each colour of Socketed Gem that is most numerous, gain:
• Red: Hits against you have no Critical Damage Bonus.
