On the 14th of October (PDT), we'll be announcing Path of Exile: Scourge. At that time, we’ll introduce a new set of League Supporter Packs, which means the {LINK REMOVED}Ultimatum Supporter Packs will permanently leave the store.

There are two pairs of Ultimatum Supporter Packs available in the store; the Sun Supporter Pack and the Crescent Supporter Pack. Each of the two pairs is designed in its own style with different contents, so you can choose whichever you prefer; or if you can’t decide, you can get both! If you have previously purchased a smaller pack, you have the option to upgrade to the larger one. All of the microtransactions included in the Supporter Packs are exclusive and will not be available in the store again.

We recently took some time to chat with streamer and long time player Kripparrian, to find out some of his favourite Path of Exile memories and what his life is like outside of gaming!

Hi Kripparrian, thanks so much for joining us for this interview! For those who may not be familiar with you yet, can you please introduce yourself? Hey there! I'm Kripp, and I've been playing video games all of my life, starting from when I was 3 years old. I've been fortunate enough to be able to make a living off of it since 2012, and luckily Path of Exile has been part of my gaming routine for most of those years.

We owe you a huge deal of thanks for helping to popularise Path of Exile in its early days. What is your favourite memory of your earliest days playing Path of Exile? My favorite part about PoE is to successfully create a new character and build that has not been done before. In the early days this was a much harder task, especially on Hardcore, as there were far fewer ... Read more

Continuing our series of interviews with community streamers, we took some time to chat with Velyna, giving us some insight into what streaming life is like and other behind the scenes info!

Hi Velyna, thank you for taking part in the interview! Please introduce yourself. Hey I'm Velyna or Vel, a big time gamer from Ontario Canada.

When did you first get into Path of Exile? It was 9 years ago now. I was looking for a new ARPG to play and it was either PoE's closed beta or continue with Diablo 3, I chose the former and have been firmly indoctrinated ever since.

What one thing caught your attention in the beginning and what one thing kept you coming back? The skill tree. I have never seen anything like it and it makes me feel like the build possibilities are endless.

Are there any highlights from your time playing Path of Exile that stand out in your memory? You know there are so many things that stick out in my mind, like I'll never forget the ... Read more

Use the poll options above to select which type of microtransaction you'd like to see the community design: Helmet, Cloak, Wings, Weapon Effect, Weapon Skin, Shield, Character Effect or Pet.

This poll is available from this time of this post until Tuesday Septe... Read more
