The poses and location of each entry aren't part of our judgement requirements. These are screenshots we took by taking player's submitted outfits and recreating them in order to highlight some of the competition entries!

Later today, we're planning to deploy 3.18.1c which includes a few improvements and bug fixes. In this news post we've prepared a preview of its patch notes.

The following patch notes are still subject to change prior to the patch's deployment. We'll deploy the 3.18.1c update on consoles as soon as possible after its release on PC.

We recently asked Dominic, one of our Sound Designers, to share some insights into the process of designing audio for the Sentinel League. Check out the article below if you're looking for a sneak peek into our development process.

Hello! I’m Dominic, one of the audio engineers on the team at GGG. Recently you all would have been enjoying our latest league, Sentinel. I thought I would share a little on the design process from an audio team member’s perspective.

The sound design for Sentinel was a challenge. We aim for a dark and gritty sound in Wraeclast, so how do we make these enigmatic and technologically ancient sentinels fit into that world? The first part was easy. We needed a set of emerging, attack/empower and submerge audio. With the words metallic, ancient and enigmatic in mind, I went str... Read more

A few weeks 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 some of your questions and have asked Mark to answer them below!

How does the Sadist skill on large elemental cluster jewels interact with Skitterbots?

It does not. Skitterbots inflict their ailments, but they do not have the Sadist passive skill

How would ignite work in this scenario? You hit an enemy with a spell that has 100% chance to ignite for 1000 damage. Elemental Overload procs after a second and you keep damaging the enemy with the same skill. Does the old ticking ignite get overridden by the stronger one due to the damage bonus from Elemental Overload?
