The following dungeon areas have been added/changed in Path of Diablo.

What is a Map?

• A map is an end-game area in Path of Diablo. They can be areas of peril, but also ones that can provide great loot to those who can prevail against such foes.
• They offer increased experience compared to traditional farming areas while still giving high level loot.
• Maps also promote build diversity by offering different combinations of monsters with damage-type immunities (physical and or elemental), in varying densities.
• In a way that should be somewhat familiar to Path of Exile players, these areas can be accessed by using a series of new special items called Relics.
• All enemies in level 85+ areas have a chance to drop a map relic.

• The map relic will disappear once it's been opened.

• Map affixes can be modified or be made into a higher tier. White maps can be dropped from monsters outside of maps. Yellow and Red tier maps can only drop from inside maps.

Requirements and How to enter maps

• Identified map.

• You need to be in Hell mode with a minimum character level of 80.

• Done the Ancients (Rite of Passage) quest.

• To enter a map, the player must place it on the altar in Malah's shop in Harrogath. The map is consumed and makes a red portal to the map.

The Tiers of Maps

This information is still being updated for Zincite

White Maps

Yellow Maps

Red Maps

Corrupted Maps

• Map orientation may be rotated when compared to the layouts presented.

How to Modify a Map

There are a few ways to modify a map. Players using a specific build can modify a map to suit their skills.

By corrupting a map players may gain additional experience, monster density and gold and magic find. Increased experience comes with more challenging affixes, so adventeurers, be wary!

Recipes:

Re-rolling a maps' affixes

• In the Horadric Cube transmute 6 Perfect Skulls + map. This modifies the map, for a chance to get a preferrable set of affixes.

How to corrupt a map:

• In the Horadric Cube transmute an Orb of Corruption + map to produce a corrupted map.

• In the Horadric Cube transmute a White Corrupted map + 3 Perfect Gems for a chance to make into a Yellow map.

Further Notes:

• A corrupted map won't have its location or tier changed, except Pleasant Pasture, which can be turned into a Yellow map.

• You can corrupt maps for a chance to get the +200% Gold and Magic Find affix or change the map completely to a Pleasant Pasture.

• We don't know the probability as of 8/30/2020.

• 3.2% (8 of 250) is the current best estimate for corrupting to get the Magic Find and Gold Find affix on Pleasant Pasture.

Additional Map Information

• Even with a strong party and powerful items it may easily take 20+ minutes.

• Consider the server reset time before creating one.

• Only one map can be opened per game. The red portal next to the altar will stay even if the person who opened it leaves.

• On entering a map there's a one-way waypoint. Functionally, it can only access the original waypoints.

• The colour of a map indicates its difficulty. White maps should be slightly challenging for a single player. Yellow maps should be a moderate challenge for a few players. Red maps should be a hard challenge for a full party.

• Currently, there's no guarantee of a relic drop in the Musty Crypt and Desecrated Temple, nor do they have a boss.
