Today we're happy to introduce the Sunspire Hideout Effect which varies from several small lights in the air to a big beam of light. Check it out by watching the video below or press M to get yours.

Thematically, this environmental effect fits the Sunspire Hideout, which can only be obtained from one of the current Synthesis Supporter Packs. Of course, you can use it in any other hideout as an additional source of light. Incase you're building a holy-themed hideout, try using the Sunspire Hideout Effect wi... Read more

In December 2017, we introduced the Map Stash Tab, which allows players to conveniently store up to 72 of every type of Map from a specific series. At the time it was introduced, there were four series of maps. Late last year, we started introducing a new series of maps from the Betrayal release onwards. While this doesn't affect League players, it had bad consequences for Standard players. This news post explains what we're doing about it.

The problem for Standard players is that when the latest league migrates to Standard, their Map Stash Tab is set to hold maps from the last series, so new maps can't be inserted. It's also probably full of Maps from that last series and the series can't be changed unless the tab is empty. In order to use that Map Stash Tab to hold new maps, the player has to first empty out the entire tab manually. They then n... Read more

In Synthesis, we performed an extensive rebalance of Spellcasting throughout Path of Exile. A lot of this work focused on a numerical rebalance of most skills.

We have indicated that the June 3.7.0 expansion contains a similar rebalance of Melee skills, and while we certainly do intend to numerically adjust them to make sure they're viable, the actual scope of Melee changes planned is a lot larger than we have indicated so far.

Players from other Action RPGs have occasionally criticised Path of Exile's melee combat for being "clunky", especially early on before players get a lot of attack speed. We are making various experimental changes to the animation system that should help resolve these concerns and really tighten up the feel of melee combat.

In addition to animation system improvements and melee skill rebalances, we are exp... Read more

In the Betrayal league content, there are 17 members of the Immortal Syndicate who can appear in areas that you play through. As with all other content in Path of Exile, it's important that the game assets for these enemies are loaded before you encounter them, otherwise your client will have to load them synchronously, which stalls it for a period of time.

Because multiple Betrayal encounters occur in an area, and the results of one encounter can affect which Syndicate members spawn in the subsequent encounters, it's not possible to know in advance which specific Syndicate members need to be loaded, so we have to preload all of them.

On most users' machines, this preloading is complete before any Syndicate members are encountered in the area, with no performance impact. However, on slower machines or ones with platter-based hard drives... Read more
