{LINK REMOVED}We recently announced some improvements to the Necropolis league that we've been working on. Many of these changes will be coming in patch 3.24.0b, which we're planning to release later today. Check out the patch notes preview below.

3.24.0b Patch Notes

• This patch contains improvements to Necropolis Area to Area or Map to Map gameplay as well as improvements to Grave-Crafting detailed in our recent news post. We've also made some improvements to Tier 17 Maps, and fixed an issue that caused characters to feel "glidy".

Over the weekend we launched Path of Exile: Necropolis and have been closely monitoring feedback ever since. In this news post, Mark overviews a number of changes and improvements to the Necropolis League we're currently working on.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for all the feedback and bingo cards.

To get straight to the point of the improvements to the league, here's what we're currently doing today in the studio. Our hope is to get each change out as soon as it is ready.

Area to Area or Map to Map gameplay:

• We will be allowing you to itemise corpses as they drop, so you can choose to collect the corpse or itemise it for free. As a result itemising corpses in all contexts will now be free, as opposed to the 1 Chaos Orb it currently costs.
  
• Each of the downsides from area to area will now display the increase to the amount of Collectable Corpses and Allflame Embers they cause.
  
• We will be increasing the amo...

We've just released the Necropolis Mystery Box, a new mystery box without duplicate microtransactions! Each of the microtransactions in this mystery box has visual behaviour that interacts with your gameplay. Check out the contents of the box in the video below!

There are 22 microtransactions that you can find in the Necropolis Mystery Box. Each of these microtransactions has a varying number of thematic variations, and you'll never receive a duplicate copy of a variation that you have already opened. For example, if you open one variant of a microtransaction, you may later receive another variant, but you'll never get a duplicate!

We have released a new version of Kirac's Vault Pass! This league's pass can be purchased with points and also has a free track available. Its premium track contains a new exclusive armour set and some mystery boxes.



Free Track The free track of Kirac's Vault rewards you with Kirac Missions, as well as items such as Scouting Reports, a Conqueror Map and an Inscribed Ultimatum for completing bonus objectives of maps in Path of Exile's endgame. You can complete it once in each Necropolis league you play, such as Necropolis or Hardcore Necropolis. The free track does not grant items in Ruthless modes or Private Leagues.

You'll earn your first reward upon completing your first map bonus objective. You'll earn additional rewards by completing sets of map bonus objectives while exploring your Atlas. If you complete the bonus objectives of all 115 maps, ... Read more

In the Necropolis League, you'll be able to earn pieces of the exclusive Mischievous Hawker Armour Set by completing 40 new challenges. At 4, 8, 12 and 16 challenges, you'll receive the Mischievous Hawker Boots, Gloves, Body Armour, and Helmet respectively.

Additional tiers of this armour set are unlocked as you complete more challenges in the Necropolis League. Completing challenges also grants you pieces of the Necropolis Totem Pole Hideout decoration!

In Ruthless, you will receive the full Mischievous Hawker Armour Set at 2 challenges, and each challenge completed after that will upgrade pieces of the set with the entire set fully upgraded once 8 challenges are completed.

In the Necropolis expansion, we've introduced several new Skill, Support, and Transfigured Gems and made some changes to existing ones. As usual, we've prepared the gem data at level 20 with 20% quality for all new and changed gems to help you theorycraft your builds for the upcoming launch.

Check them out in the forum post on our website, which you can find by clicking {LINK REMOVED}here.

• All of your Tinctures and Charms will be deleted.
