Rediscover Path of Exile's Passive Skill Tree in the Krangled Passives Group SSF Event! Now available on both PC and Console, you can start exploring the krangled skill tree to reveal which strange character builds might be possible.

Krangled Passives Group SSF Event

• League Completion Criteria: Kill both Searing Exarch and Eater of Worlds
  
• Based on: Standard (Sanctum/Ruthless/Hardcore all disabled)
  
• Accounts Allowed in League: 6
  
• End date: End date: 2pm March 28th PDT
  
• Platforms: PC and Console

The Passive Skill Tree and all Ascendancy Trees are jumbled. Minor passive skills, notables, keystones, minor ascendancy skills and major ascendancy skills have been internally scrambled within those categories (so a notable passive is still a notable passive, just a random one). Mastery locations are Krangled, but their options are not. All players have the same trees.

You can only s... Read more

Very soon, we'll begin revealing the upcoming content in our 3.21 expansion. This time around, we won't be posting balance manifestos detailing the expansion's balance changes.

Balance manifestos are great at communicating certain types of content. Whenever we want to do deep work on a particular game system, they provide a good opportunity to clearly explain the changes in a self-contained way outside of the hubbub of livestream day. They also give us longer to gather feedback about whether those systems changes are in the right direction.

Over the years, though, we've learned that there are certain types of changes that balance manifestos are less appropriate for. Often, changes require greater context that the livestream explains, or benefit from video as a form of communication. Sometimes there's just so much numerical detail that the balance manifesto ends up reading like a set of patch notes, weirdly detached from the rest of the actual patch notes that you need...

We recently concluded our eleventh season of Build of the Week with a chaotic build from SideFX. Each build this season has displayed a drastically different character, from the end-game annihilation of Jungroan's Creeping Frost build to the mind bending mechanical monstrosity of Ifnjeff's Hydrosphere build. Build of the Week is all about showcasing the community's creative characters, and Season 11 has certainly not disappointed! If you missed an episode or want to see them again, check out all the episodes from Season 11 below!

Episode 1: Palsteron's Static Strike and Shockwave Slayer
