Ruthless is an optional new game mode which offers a more challenging way to play Path of Exile. Ruthless players can expect extreme item scarcity, limited crafting and many other changes such as support gems being drop-only.

This system has been streamlined so that each modifier only does one specific thing and describes exactly what it does. While you'll still encounter modifier combinations that get your heart racing, these will be rarer than before and easier to understand in the heat of combat.

The Archnemesis monster mod system has been replaced with a system that more closely resembles Path of Exile's initial monster mods, but with modernised balance and effects.

We've also rebalanced Hexes to make them stronger against endgame bosses and have reworked most curse mechanics and curse uniques as a result. Our recent balance manifestos and expansion patch notes cover these changes in more detail.

This expansion includes a number of changes to Path of Exile's mechanics. We have improved Jewels as a source of ailment mitigation and have replaced most existing unique Jewels with some powerful new ones.

We've also massively increased the power and rarity of ten existing endgame unique weapons to bring them in line with some of Path of Exile's most iconic unique items.

There are over 15 new unique items to be found from within the Forbidden Sanctum and throughout Wraeclast and the Atlas.

Frozen Legion is a spell that creates a ring of icy statues that attack using your weapon damage. These statues perform a sweeping ice slash which can overlap.

Volcanic Fissure is a new fiery Slam skill that strikes the ground to create a chasm that winds towards your target until it erupts with a burst of fiery projectiles that explode when striking the ground.
