Patch #8: Pyrite

New Mapping/Dungeoneering System

We are introducing a new dungeoneering system that will significantly improve the current one we have in place. The current dungeons will be reverted back to normal. So what is the new system? Players will find Relics which are tiered. When a player finds a relic, he can bring it to an Altar and use it. This will create a portal to a high level dungeon. These dungeons are exclusive to the end-game. They are inaccessible until Hell and require level 80 to open. These dungeons offer an optional alternative end-game aimed for high level characters (90+) where they can farm difficult content for experience and loot. These areas become harder and harder as you climb the Tiers. Each map has a boss and currently you are required to kill the map boss in order to gain access to higher tiers. Dungeons get increasingly difficult as you enter higher tiers but they will provide excellent experience points. These dungeons are safest when done in a group. It is not recommended to enter solo unless your character has end-game gear. Please be advised that the map bosses can be pretty scary. Tread carefully. There is currently 3 tiers out of the planned 5. The other tiers will be patched in later due to time constraints. Please make sure to send in feedback on the dungeoneering system so that it can be further improved in the upcoming patches.

Items and Skills

• Summon Spirit Wolves and Summon Dire Wolves now gain one wolf every two levels instead of one every level.

• Oak Sage now requires level 30.

• Heart of the Wolverine now requires level 6.

• Spirit of Barbs now requires level 18.

• Monsters can no longer spawn with the Mana Burn mod.

• Arrows and Bolts now spawn with a wide variety of implicit mods.

• Sorceress’ “Lightning” skill has been renamed “Lightning Surge” to avoid confusion.

• Raven’s attacks now deal splash damage.

• Raven’s cold damage has been reduced slightly.

• Firestorm’s damage has been reduced at lower levels.

• Energy Shield’s tooltip will now show you the efficiency percent.

• The “Damage Taken Goes to Mana” mod will now read “Damage Taken Gained as Mana when Hit” to avoid confusion.

• The mods “Damage Reduced by” and “Magic Damage Reduced by” will now read “Physical Damage Taken Reduced by” and “Magic Damage Taken Reduced by” to avoid confusion.

• Healing potions have been renamed to Life potions to shorten their name label, resulting in slightly less item clutter on screen.

• Moved “Flamespike the Crawler” further away from the Inner Cloister waypoint.

• Fixed a bug with Fire Arrow not properly requiring Magic Arrow to level the skill.

• Fixed a bug with Immolation Arrow’s fire trail which caused it to deal weapon damage.

• Fixed a bug with Battle Orders showing “50% reduced effectiveness” when the skill level was zero.

• Hopefully fixed a bug that caused Flame Dash’s animation to play in the wrong place, only when playing online. This fix cannot be confirmed as working until tested on the server. This was a visual-only bug and therefore will not affect gameplay if the bug persists.

• Increased the drop rate of Orb of Corruptions.

• Freeze Pulse’s damage scaling has been reduced.

• Blood Golem now has an aura that grants allies "Life gained on hit".

• Increased the drop rate of Tier 1 maps.

• Fixed a bug which allowed Heavenly Garb to spawn with +5 Energy Shield.

• The Grief runeword's bugged damage has been replaced by damage based on character level. This has helped fix the tooltip error.

• Normalized the drop rate of Orb of Corruptions so they drop more consistently at all levels instead of dropping much more often in the early game.

• Some of the stats spawned by Orb of Corruptions have been buffed while others have been changed to different and better stats. This should make the implicit stats more appealing.

Patch #4: Onyx

Mapping/Dungeoneering:

This patch contains some changes to the end-game in an effort to make more areas worth exploring. It is important to offer more replayability via build diversity, but another way to achieve that is to give players more reasons to visit underused side areas. Before this rework, very few side areas were worth visiting, but a notable exception is ‘The Pit Level 2’. This zone is famous for having an equivalent monster level as the Throne of Destruction which means players can get the same item drops but with lower risk since that zone contains weaker monsters. The advantage of Throne of Destruction on the other hand is that it offers both the best drops and the most experience in the game. Although there are a few other notable examples like Countess farming, most other zones in the game are virtually useless to farm. The rework of the end-game plans to address this in a way that should be familiar for Path of Exile players; a mapping/dungeoneering system. We’ve changed some side areas to be completely new dungeons that offer higher monster level for more experience gain, however the content’s difficulty has also increased.

• The Hole Level 1 now has a monster level of 87.

• The Hole Level 2 now has a monster level of 88.

• Stony Tomb Level 1 now has a monster level of 87.

• Stony Tomb Level 2 now has a monster level of 88.

• Halls of Pain now has a monster level of 87.

• Halls of Vaught now has a monster level of 88.

• All dungeons have had their area size increased. Due to an unforeseen bug, some areas will remain their normal size until we patch a fix some time after the ladder reset.

• Each dungeon contains a varied list of monsters that can spawn in them, in a multitude of combinations.

• The item drops within dungeons are the same as Worldstone Chamber.

This is the first part of the end-game rework. Don’t forget to give us feedback on these new dungeons. We want to make sure that this system is working perfectly before we can implement the remaining dungeoneering/mapping system.

Skills and Items Changes

• Fixed an error with ‘Bartuc’s Cut-throat’ tooltip not displaying the item name.
• Convocation has changed: At Level 1 the cooldown is 10 seconds. Every level reduces the cooldown by 0.2 seconds. The cooldown is locked at a minimum of 2 seconds.

• The mod ‘Piercing Attacks’ now specifies the pierce chance percentage in the tooltip.
• Throwing Mastery now grants ‘+% Piercing Attacks with Throwing Weapons’
• Inferno has been reworked to have a larger AoE coverage
• The unique item ‘Todesfaelle Flamme’ has been reworked. [Before.jpg]() / [After.jpg]()

• Blizzard, Thunderbolt, Hydra, Frozen Orb and Meteor have had their mana costs significantly reduced.
• Poison Dagger: added 1% synergy with Poison Explosion and Poison Nova.
• Raise Skeleton: Increased damage scaling.
• Raise Skeletal Mage have had their damage increased. Their damage can now be seen on the tooltip for Lightning, Fire and Cold.

• Fire Golem had flat fire damage and also ran Holy Fire aura, giving him another flat fire damage, causing double dips in his damage. This has been fixed to where his flat fire damage no longer exists. His Holy Fire level was reduced slightly.

• Bone Spear’s synergy bonus from Bone Spirit has returned.
• Poison Explosion’s base radius increased by 50%.

Patch #1: Bedrock

• Druid's can now have both Spirit Wolves and Dire Wolves at the same time.
