The Sentinel League ends on PC on Tuesday August 16th at 3pm (PDT), so there's only two weeks left to unlock the Ophidian and Ophidian Lord Armour Sets and Wings if you haven't done so already. On consoles, the Sentinel League will end when the Lake of Kalandra expansion goes live for consoles on August 24th (PDT).

When the Sentinel League ends, private leagues for Lake of Kalandra will become available so that you can prepare ahead of time for its launch. The current items available in Kirac's Vault Pass will also be sealed away forever and replaced with new, exclusive cosmetic effects alongside the launch of Lake of Kalandra. The items for consoles will be replaced alongside Lake of Kalandra's console launch on August 24th (PDT). Check out the unique item skins in the video below or get your Pass {LINK REMOVED}...

Path of Exile: Lake of Kalandra contains a number of balance changes. Ahead of the official announcement livestream next week, we have prepared a preview of our planned character balance changes and our thoughts behind them so that you'll have plenty of time to think about them and provide feedback before the expansion launches. These are not the full patch notes — they only contain direct changes to character balance and are still subject to change.

You can read the Balance Manifesto on our forum by clicking {LINK REMOVED}here.

This next installment of our Divination Card Stories series comes from kx10yf, creator of Rebirth and Renewal. Discover the tale behind their card in today's post!



Hello,

I'd like to share my story behind the design of the divination card: "Rebirth and Renewal". I have played Path of Exile on and off since its Beta release in 2013. I love this game because of its depth in gear crafting and its endless build possibilities. Every season is a brand new experience for me.

Since the significant buff of the summoner class in 3.8, I have started to play some builds like spectre, zombie, and raging spirits. I always love playing summoner classes in other Action RPGs, and this buff gave me the opportunity. Unfortunately, the summoner class has been balanced several times along the way after 3.8, but it is still lots of fu... Read more

We're happy to introduce Michael, who's been a member of our sound design team for over a year and recently became a supporting composer for Path of Exile! We took a moment to interview Michael about his music background and new role at Grinding Gear Games.

Hi Michael! Thanks for participating in the interview! Could you please introduce yourself? Hey, I’m Michael and I’ve been in the audio team for around a year and a half now! I started in sound design just before Ultimatum, and began the switch to music a little after Archnemesis. I have a little over 3000 hours in PoE, and have played on and off since beta.

What is your musical background?
I’ve been playing music since I was about 9 years old. At school I was classically trained in Piano, Guitar and Voice. I studied Composition at University for a couple of years, but didn’t really enjoy the Classical degree so I moved on to the popular music degree where I learned about working in a studio environment, an...

Hi Community Team!

I joined Path of Exile 10 years ago just before open beta was released, after some of my friends told me several times that the game was excellent and a perfect alternative to Diablo 3 which we were playing at the time. I’ve always been a fan of RPG’s and also MMORPG’s, having played a lot of Guild Wars and World of Warcraft. Our guild wanted something that could let us play together like the old times. That is where Path of Exile comes into play.

I do remember the good old days when act 3 was just released, trying to defeat Piety for the first time, farming docks and having a character where level 75 was a high level. Those moments have a special place in my memories and that... Read more

Last week we posted an {LINK REMOVED}approximate timeline for our upcoming 3.19 expansion. We've reviewed it since then and would like to give you an updated timeline.

Our August expansion is more likely to launch on August 19th PDT, consuming the week of buffer we mentioned in that announcement post. This means that you can expect the announcement livestream around August 11th PDT and Sentinel League's end date would be around August 16th PDT.

We'll post the confirmed release date very soon. Keep an eye on the news!
