Later on this week, we plan on deploying Patch 3.14.2 which includes a variety of fixes. To give you an idea of what to expect, we have prepared a preview of the patch notes for you!

Please note that the patch notes may be changed prior to their deployment.

• Added Increased Monster Area of Effect modifiers that can be used in Private Leagues.
• Changed the Hateforge unique gloves to allow them to affect Vaal attacks used by traps and mines again. While these mechanics bypass the intended restrictions of Vaal skills in a similar way to totems, those cases are less abusable now so we've temporarily restored the interaction between Traps, Mines, and Hateforge. This stat will return to preventing use with traps and mines again in 3.15.
• Fixed some calculation and snapshotting bugs that occurred when two instances of the same Vaal skill that had different soul requirements, which is currently possible when one is in the Triumvirate Aut...

Following the exciting showcase of Path of Exile racing that was featured on Games Done Quick last month, community streamer Brittleknee has organised a Path of Exile Speedrunning Season that is open for anyone!

While the Speedrun Season already began on the 14th of May, it's not too late to sign up and get racing. The best part is you can sign up and join whenever you want to run, which means you can work around any commitments and choose the best time that suits you to begin!

The Community Speedrun Season is split into 6 weeks, each week focusing on a different boss or endpoint. Each event's endpoint is further from the last, allowing you to refine and develop your strategies from the weeks prior. The event is currently in Week 2 which has its focus on defeating the Vaal Oversoul, the final boss of Act 2, in the fastest time possible and ends {LINK REMOVED}... Read more

Earlier today we released {LINK REMOVED}Patch 3.14.1d which introduced a 'Clear Cache' button. We want to provide extra information about how this is best used along with an early report on the results of the patch.

The 'Clear Cache' button will clear out several temporary storage locations that Path of Exile uses for things like downloaded images and graphics shaders. After clearing cached shaders your client performance will be temporarily degraded while the client regenerates the shaders it needs. For this reason we recommend only using 'Clear Cache' as a last resort when troubleshooting a crash or other graphical problem, or if the size of the caches has become a problem.

We are monitoring the results of this patch closely and while it seems to... Read more

About a week ago, we asked for your questions about game mechanics to help the community understand some of the intricacies of Path of Exile! We've collected a variety of questions and have answered them on our forum {LINK REMOVED}here!

Within the next few days (possibly as early as tomorrow), we're planning to deploy Patch 3.14.1d which includes the video memory utilisation improvements that we {LINK REMOVED}discussed last week.

3.14.1d Patch Notes

• The Path of Exile client now utilises your system's video memory more efficiently, which means that assets will stay loaded for longer. For systems with sufficient video memory, this will result in significantly fewer assets being visibly loaded during gameplay.
  
• Added 'Wipe Cache' button in Options. While we clear Path of Exile's cache periodically, this button can be used on demand to attempt to troubleshoot issues that may be due to invalid files, or if the cache grows too large.

We'll be... Read more
