News Tag: POE Settlers Of Kalguur

The highly anticipated Path of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur has been released! In this patch, the developers have added a lot of new content. Black Knight is an exclusive boss added this time, and it brings new boss mechanics and new loot rewards.

Because of these new things, every player should try it. However, because of the mechanics of the game, you rarely have the opportunity to fight Black Knight directly, so you can wait until one day when you have a lot of time, and then slowly explore according to the location and fighting method of Black Knight introduced in this guide!

Location Of Black Knight

Black Knight can be found in Starfall Crater. If you run the map frequently, you may see a new area open at a random location. Its entrance looks very much like a Twisted Burrows, which is also in Settlers of Kalguur.

This boss is level 83, so you can safely assume that Starfall Crater appears on level 16 maps. It should be explained that in Settlers of Kalguur league, many new mechanics have been added to encourage players to explore the map more, and Nameless Seer has been added to players.

So you can get some random unique items and map divination abilities, so you can predict where Starfall Crater will appear on the map. The best way to find Black Knight is to explore easy-to-run T16 maps, which will also increase your chances of finding Starfall Crater.

Here you should be careful to avoid exploring difficult maps such as Maze, Dungeon, Cage, and other non-linear maps.

Black Knight’s Mechanics

Black Knight possesses a variety of abilities that are tied to undead mana and dark magic. Understanding these mechanics is essential to developing an effective strategy to defeat him.

Undead Minions

Black Knight constantly summons waves of undead minions to overwhelm the player and their defenses. These minions include skeletons, zombies, and ghost warriors, each with their own unique abilities.

Curses And Debuffs

Black Knight casts a variety of curses and debuffs that weaken the player’s combat effectiveness. These curses reduce resistance, drain health, and hinder movement.

Spectral Attacks

Black Knight uses dark magic and spectral weapons to launch devastating attacks. These attacks include powerful melee attacks, ranged dark magic projectiles, and area denial abilities.

How To Fight Black Knight?

After you find Black Knight, there is only one point to note: you must fight him head-on. When you alternate between performing two or three actions on him, he will also perform a Whirling Blade’s attack and then dash in a linear direction.

When you get close to Black Knight, he will punch you. At this time, you need to pay special attention to his 180-degree piercing projectile attack. If your max health is over 3,500 and your suppress and resist are both very high, you will most likely survive. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to defeat him.

When Black Knight’s health drops to 80% or 40% of its original health, it will enter a second phase and become invincible. In addition, it will summon some Verisium Pillars to attack you and shrink the size of the arena, making it impossible for you to hide. At this time, if you hide behind a pillar to avoid his beams, his lasers will penetrate the pillars you used to defend yourself after a few seconds. Don’t stand still. Hurry to the next pillar. You may need to move three times in the complete process.

When the boss’s health drops to 60% or 20%, it will become more invincible and summon rock storms. At this time, Verisium Meteors will fall from above you and attack you. During this period, you need to dodge these flying objects constantly, so make sure you are very mobile before fighting.

After its last invincibility phase, you will fight it again. The rock storm will continue to fall, and once it hits you, you will take more damage. However, if you have any culling mechanics in your build, this stage will be very easy for you, as the boss is now very close to elimination range.

If you die in any of the stages, you will respawn at the entrance of Starfall Crater instead of your hideout. You can reenter and continue fighting Black Knight. However, in the feedback we have received so far, many players have reported that they cannot enter Starfall Crater after respawning. This may be random, or each stage may give you another chance to retry.

Loot After Defeating Black Knight

After you defeat Black Knight, you will receive a unique item, Svalinn Girded Tower Shield, and it will also drop some runes that can be used for forging. If you don’t need these runes, you can exchange them for POE Currency in the new market.

The best rewards for this boss encounter are Verisium deposits scattered around the arena or crater. You will find five Verisium deposits, including one extra large deposit. Mark or mine all Verisium Ores and leave the rest to your workers. These Verisium Ores are very valuable in Kingsmarch, so you should try to fight Black Knight every time you see a Starfall Crater.

If you encounter any problems in Path of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur or have the experience to share with other players, you are welcome to come to IGGM Discord to communicate. In addition, you have the opportunity to get POE Currency in it. Come and participate!

After reading this guide, are you more confident in your battle with Black Knight? I hope this guide can help you in your battle!

In many guides, it has been said that Lacerate Gladiator build is one of the strongest and most reliable league starters in Path of Exile 3.25. Like Boneshatter Juggernaut, this melee build was already strong enough before the league rework.

Lacerate retains the essence of its previous powerful skills, but also increases all of its damage numbers. So, in POE 3.25, it is more powerful than ever before. So how do you make this powerful build when you first try this new league? And how do you upgrade it? This guide will give you the answers.

As you explore Path of Exile 3.25, if you have any questions or comments, you are welcome to join the Discord community and discuss game strategies with other players. In addition, IGGM Discord will occasionally bring you more benefits in this community, so remember to pay attention!

Skill Rotation And Tips

Compared to many builds that can cause slam, Lacerate Gladiator is very simple and has a low APM value. You don’t have to use multiple buttons in combat, but you still use defense and movement utilities.

The fundamental skill you can use in combat is Lacerate, a medium-range melee attack damage skill that allows you to cause bleeds. Besides this, you can use Pride and Vulnerability to weaken the monster’s ability. You can also choose Shield Charge, Molten Shell, Flame Dash, Blood Rage and Enduring Cry for defense and movement.

The thing you need to pay attention to here is that you need to always pay attention to the Vulnerability debuff on the enemy. This magic spell may make the cursed enemy take more physical damage and have a bleeding effect when attacked.

But you don’t have to worry about Pride, but you can link it with Eternal Blessing. This way, you can offset your retention cost and increase your effectiveness. As long as you can maintain this debuff and keep it practical when necessary, you can use Lacerate without worrying about it.

Pros And Cons

Although Lacerate Gladiator build is one of the simplest map builds in Path of Exile 3.25, it also has a little disadvantage.

The biggest advantage of this build compared to other DoT (Damage over Time) builds is that there is no damage to ramp-up time. This means that you can deal maximum damage to an enemy once you apply a layer of bleeding to them. Compared to DoT builds that require you to wait for several seconds to reach maximum DPS, Lacerate Gladiator build will make you safer and easier to use.

But the biggest disadvantage of this build is also accompanied by this advantage - it is too simple. This build does not have a lot of skill options, and in some cases, it can make you feel a little boring and not have enough tools, especially if you plan to use it in the endgame. If you are the kind of player who likes to use endgame gear, you may find this build to be overwhelming because Lacerate Gladiator build only requires three Uniques items. But it also saves you a lot of POE Currency, allowing you to focus more on building upgrades and weapon enhancements.

Skills To Use In Early And Mid-game

If you want to get from the early game to the mid-game as quickly as possible in this build, you can use Sunder skill. Sunder will help you advance quickly until you can start running maps on your own. In addition, you will need to use Leap Slam, War Banner, and Blood And Sand Stance to get the utility and extra damage of this build.

When you can start running maps on your own, you can switch out Sunder for Lacerate of Haemorrhage. This variant of Lacerate gives you higher bleeding damage, and you can use Earthquake, Shield Charge, Bladestorm, and Vulnerability to create a better combat situation. You are ready for the endgame skill setup.

Gem Setup

In this build, you can use gems to maximize the bleeding damage you deal in combat. Without this setup, your character will be very powerful, but with gems, you will be invincible. Here are the best gems and some effects to choose for Lacerate of Haemorrhage skill.

Volatility

Supported skills have increased maximum attack damage and decreased minimum attack damage.

Awakened Brutality

Supported skills have increased physical damage, no chaos damage, no elemental damage, and a chance to shatter enemies on hit.

Awakened Melee Physical Damage

Supported skills have increased melee physical damage, increased bleeding and poison damage from melee attacks, 10% attack reduced speed, and a chance to intimidate on hit.

Awakened Multistrike

Supported skills repeat 6 (3+3) times, increased attack speed, reduced attack damage by 20%, and increased damage bonus for the first 3 repeats.

Awakened Deadly Disease

Supported skills have increased disease damage and reduced damage on hit.

If you combine these gems with Lacerate of Haemorrhage, it may reduce some attributes, but it will greatly increase your ailment damage! You can try it in the game.

Uniques And Affixes

Lacerate Gladiator build doesn’t really need too many unique items to support its late game. But just in case, and to make it fully adaptable to the endgame event of Path of Exile 3.25, you can use the following 3 Uniques:

• Koam’s Sign x2
• Ryslatha’s Coil

If you try to get the belt directly with POE Currency, it will probably be very expensive because it is the best slot in almost all disease builds.

That’s all about the preparations and precautions you need to make for Lacerate Gladiator build in Path Of Exile 3.25. I hope you can have fun playing in the new league!

Path Of Exile players, take note! Path Of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur will be released on July 26! You may have already learned about what’s new in Settlers of Kalguur in some patch notes, but I believe you are still very much looking forward to Settlers of Kalguur.

Although POE has been around for more than ten years, developer Grinding Gear Games is still planning various very attractive ideas for each league. Among them, there will be many upgrades and improvements in Settlers of Kalguur, but the most important one is the addition of a new City Management System.

This guide will introduce you to City Management System and some fresh addition in Path Of Exile 3.25, so that you can get started faster when the official server is launched!

About City Management System

In Path of Exile Settlers of Kalguur, there will be four old faces returning from Expedition league - Dannig, Rog, Tujen, and Gwennen. They are all Kalguurans in Path Of Exile 3.25, and hope to establish trade between their country and Wraeclast.

To achieve this goal, they built a new city called Kingsmarch. As you conduct daily exploration in the action RPG, this small village will slowly build into a prosperous commercial and handicraft center.

In the developer’s social media and some interviews, game director Mark Neon Roberts once said that before this system, they took into account the popularity of creature collection survival and management games during this period, so they wanted to make this almost ten-year-old game more vibrant.

According to the existing game screenshots and beta videos, when you build Kingsmarch, you can fill it with all kinds of people and buildings. These people and buildings all have their own uses, some can improve the satisfaction of the locals, and some can provide you with more updated facilities, such as item disenchantment, farming, and shipping routes.

You can even have them run the map for you, or take advantage of some major features, most of which revolve around something that has never appeared in Path Of Exile before - gold.

About Gold

In Path Of Exile 3.25, you will see that in addition to daily loot and POE Currency, gold will also drop after combat, which can be used to get some tools, etc. But their major function is to pay the wages and maintenance fees of the workers you hire in Kingsmarch.

In addition to the regular use, you can even use gold to reallocate points in your passive skill tree. If you are brave enough, you can also gamble with Black Market vendor! Although players have been very surprised to trade market board currencies with other players, from the developers’ perspective, they hope that players will like Black Market gambler more.

Because it can generate a lot of items at its peak, probably hundreds of times more than the loot you get after a hard battle, and they can even help you pick the best ones. This means that there is no need to run your loot filter!

About Automation

As for the automation that players have always wanted, the developers also explained in the patch that it cannot be run all the time, only for a few days. And bluntly stated that it is impossible to run everything at level 10 efficiency now.

Sometimes, you will encounter a new opponent in Kingsmarch - Sasan, Bandit Lord. Sasan will come out from time to time to hijack your workers and force you to fight him. You can choose to face the battle or directly use gold to pay the ransom of the workers, or even let the workers fend for themselves.

As Path Of Exile 3.25 continues to deepen, I believe there will definitely be more ways to fight Sasan. Every time you defeat it, you will get some powerful unique items and some POE Currency.

Others

In addition to the changes just mentioned, there are many other things to look forward to, such as the increased pickup range in Path Of Exile 3.25. This way you can pick up loot throughout the area without having to move around too much.

In addition, after the melee rework, many melee skills will be 75% stronger at level 20, and the unique items required in the melee build will be reduced, and totem gems will be removed. This may sound like a bit of a nerf to the melee class, but it is the opposite, so that these classes can deal damage on their own without relying on other gear.

Even Gladiator ascendancy has been adjusted a lot, and a new skill - retaliation has been added, which is usually only available when your active shield is up. Tinctures have returned to the game, and you can use it to help your melee weapons get the most powerful bonus effect.

If you still have questions or want to communicate about Settlers of Kalguur, you can join POE player community in Discord and look forward to Path Of Exile 3.25 with tens of thousands of players. IGGM Discord will occasionally release some announcements about giving away POE Currency in this community, so you can wait quietly!

All in all, Path Of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur looks like a very exciting follow-up. Let’s look forward to the official version that will be officially released soon!

With the official announcement from the game developers, POE 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur League will be officially released on July 26, and players have also ushered in their long-awaited melee enhancements and Gladiator remakes.

So now that the release time is getting closer, have you chosen which league starter to choose in Settlers of Kalguur League? As we all know, a strong league starter can develop your early league economy more efficient and easily obtain your POE Currency and gear in the build.

This guide will introduce some suitable builds for POE 3.25, most of which focus on melee. Each of them is very stable and has been enhanced to a certain extent at this stage, which can make your exploration in Settlers of Kalguur League easier.

Boneshatter Juggernaut

Boneshatter Juggernaut has received certain enhancements in both the basic version and the complex trauma version. Some players may still worry about whether Juggernaut class’s previous Unbreakable Ascendancy will change in this POE 3.25. In fact, this worry is unnecessary.

Endurance charges now reduce the elemental damage provided, instead of just changing elemental resistances and physical damage as before. You will find that the new configuration may be more powerful now, and the role of the new Unbreakable Ascendancy node is the same as before, without any changes.

If you put divine flesh into this build, Boneshatter Juggernaut will become even more powerful. In addition, Quality multiplicative changes will also have a very big impact on this build, especially to increase damage and enhancing offense. I think this should offset the nerf in Determination Aura.

Gear

• Weapon: Brood Etcher Despot Axe
• Helmet: Glyph Star Ezomyte Burgonet
• Armor: Forth Vow Devout Chainmail
• Rings: Eagle Finger Amethyst Ring, Carrion Hold Amethyst Ring
• Amulet: Eternal Struggle Onyx Amulet
• Gloves: Tanu Ahi Wyrmsclae Gauntlets
• Belt: Magnate Studded Belt
• Boots: Brood Sole Goliath Greaves

Frostblades Trickster

In Path Of Exile 3.25, the second best league starter build is Frostblades Trickster because of its high speed, high evasion, and higher damage. Many players worry that it is an early build that will only be dominant in the early stages and weaker in the later stages. This worry is unnecessary and absolutely not a problem.

And in POE 3.25, Frostblades Trickster has not been affected at all. In this build, Frostblade skill gem not only increases its own damage by 265 but also enhances its own basic freezing effect. This makes Frostblades Trickster even more powerful.

In this version and stage, Frostblades Trickster has undergone many nerfs, but it is still strong and has the potential to become an absolute beast in this league. This is also a Path of Exile Settlers of Kalguur melee build that you should try.

Gear

• Weapon: Essence Only Claw
• Offhand: Day 1 Shield
• Helmet: Heatshiver
• Armor: Day 1 Chest
• Rings: Maming, Day 1
• Amulet: New Item
• Gloves: Day 1 Gloves
• Belt: Day 1 Belt
• Boots: Day 1 Boots

Shield Crush Juggernaut

Shield Crush Juggernaut has been around for a few leagues, and in POE 3.19 it was a very slow league start build, but now in POE 3.25 it’s become very powerful. The way this build works is that you stack your armor with your shield soldiers to protect yourself.

In addition to Energy shield, it also adds fixed damage per 75 armor, and also increases your crit based on Energy shields' stats. This means that this is a very powerful crit stacking build.

According to the patch notes, the two skills in this build come with two buffs themselves. One of them has a fixed base damage DPS buff, and the other has a high-end DPS buff that scales with armor, which makes Shield Crush Juggernaut one of the most powerful builds in Path of Exile 3.25.

In addition, this build is one of the few builds in the game that can scale to extreme armor levels through shield quality, and its multiplicative changes will greatly increase the DPS of this build.

Gear

• Weapon: Dream Feather Replica
• Offhand: Emperor’s Vigilance
• Helmet: Enemy Horn
• Armor: Fourth Oath
• Rings: Cataclysm Knot, Storm Ring
• Amulet: Adur’s Uprising
• Gloves: Tanu Ahi
• Belt: Perseverance
• Boots: Cataclysm Slippers

Perforate Slayer

Although Perforate Slayer does not have a complete end-game configuration, players believe that it has the potential to become the best POE 3.25 league starter. In Perforate Slayer, the damage of the perforate skill gem is increased from 265% to 622%, which will make your battles easier.

But it also has certain risks. If you are not an experienced player, it is not recommended for you to use this build. Because it is very likely that when you use this build to kill people, your own health may not be very healthy.

Gear

• Weapon: Death Roar
• Offhand: Crown of Sorrow
• Helmet: Enemy Horn
• Armor: Death Jack
• Rings: Mind’s Eye, Dusk Eye
• Amulet: Doom Amulet
• Gloves: Death Knuckles
• Belt: Chaos Trap
• Boots: Vortex Slippers

That’s it for the best builds you can try out in Path of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur. Let’s get started on July 26!

The era of Necropolis League is finally coming to an end, and it will be replaced by the long-awaited POE 3.25 Settlers Of Kalguur League. But what legacy will Necropolis leave in the future of Path of Exile?

Recently, the developers released a news post about what will happen when Necropolis ends, as well as all the information about the league and its mechanics. With this information, we will learn which unique items will enter the core in POE 3.25. Let’s get straight to the point.

Will Necropolis League Be Core?

First of all, we confirm right away here that Necropolis League will not be core in POE 3.25. Similarly, Lantern of Arimor and its Allflame Embers, Necropolis Graveyard and its Corpses will not enter the core game. This is not surprising. I really didn’t expect these to be the core. But I must admit that the concept of Allflame is good, and maybe they will return in a more refined form in the future.

In addition, any existing Coffins and Allflame will be removed, so they won’t take up a lot of your stash space in Standard League.

What Unique Items Are Coming To Core?

But these are not the main points. Here, we will focus on looking at the part of Necropolis League that will become a core in POE 3.25, namely unique items.

Perandus Pact (Not Appearing)

The first thing I want to talk about must be Perandus Pact, which has received a lot of attention. But please note that it did not enter the core in POE 3.25.

Perandus Pact is a unique item exclusive to Necropolis. I believe that players who have used it know that this Unique Jewel may be the strongest of Necropolis unique items. It provides many single stats, depending on the modifiers of Jewel itself and its position in your passive tree. Of course, how much POE Currency you invest in it is also an important factor affecting its effect.

It’s no surprise that this Jewel didn’t make it to the core drop pool in POE 3.25.

As an aside, if you want to get more POE Currency, don't forget to follow the IGGM community in Discord, where we will occasionally release some product giveaway information. However, to increase your chances of winning, you need to like and comment more in the community! Maybe the next lucky person will be you!

Getting back to the point, I think it is very similar to That Which Was Taken Crimson Jewel in terms of power level to some extent. But I’d say That Which Was Taken comes with really nice modifiers, while Perandus Pact probably needs a more tailored passive skill tree to be most effective.

Regardless, Perandus Pact won’t be making it to the core drop pool, at least in Settlers Of Kalguur League. Likewise, the chances of this item being added as a loot drop from a boss or, more specific mechanic are also very slim, so I wouldn’t count on it.

As a result, the rest of Necropolis unique items will go directly to the core drop pool in POE 3.25. To be clear, we’ll only be looking at exclusive Necropolis unique items, and every item will be covered.

Nevalius Inheritance

Now let’s start with Nevalius Inheritance. This Unique Belt is all about modifying flask effects and duration, but it has the rare property of changing the stats it provides based on your character level. It increases the flask effect duration by 150% and reduces the flask effect by 60%, but then reduces flask duration by 2% per level and increases flask effect by 1% per level at level 100.

This Belt provides 40% flask effect at the cost of 50% duration reduction. But since we also have options like Tides of Time available. This is unlikely to be widely used in high-level characters.

However, I think Nevalius Inheritance is a very good unique to use for leveling, to equip in the second half of the campaign and use with Unique Flasks, Witchfire Brew, or Replica Witchfire Brew.

These Flasks grant you a Curse Aura of Despair or Vulnerability at level 21, depending on which one you use. And this Curse Aura is not affected by the flask effect modifier. This means you get the full power of a level 21 Curse, and benefit from the increased flask duration to keep its effects longer.

This is very useful for leveling up some chaos or physical damage based characters. But even so, this Unique Belt is very niche and I don’t see it being used very often.

Grattus Signet

Next up we have Grattus Signet, which is a Unique Ring. This item is very useful in terms of the stats it provides. It has some attack speed, cast speed, some energy shield, and some life. Then it also has two modifiers, where attacks inflict Unnerve on crits, and spells inflict Intimidate on crits.

The weird thing about this ring is that they switched things up in terms of what it applies. Attack crits inflict a debuff that increases spell damage, and spell crits inflict a debuff that increases attack damage. If it were the other way around, this item would just be a fairly generic choice for many characters early in their progression.

While the other stats are still very beneficial, one thing Grattus Signet has going for it is its level requirement, which means it can be slapped onto most characters early on to get some useful stats. But other than that, I don’t see this item being used all that much either.

Hand Of Phrecia

Next up is the most interesting of Necropolis unique items, and that’s Hand of Phrecia, an item that seems designed to be a unique item that boosts link skills. But ultimately it’s mostly used on solo characters without the need for link skills.

Because of its very specific interaction with Generosity Support, the final modifier to this unique non-Curse Aura in your skills only applies to you and the target of your Link, meaning you get the full benefit from Aura effect increased by Generosity. This interaction breathes life into this Unique Gloves, meaning they have a chance to be picked up and used in many builds.

Veruso’s Ambition

Finally, we have Veruso’s Ambition, a pair of Unique Boots designed around Ravenous skill that previously existed in Warlock of the Mists from Affliction League.

Veruso’s Ambition makes the monster names also show their monster class, which is important for Ravenous skill. Because the skill allows the character to consume a target corpse and then gain a bonus against monsters of the same type. The buff it brings is also pretty powerful, namely 15% more damage done and 15% less damage taken against monsters of a specific class that are now in Affliction.

While it’s clunky, this ability makes sense because you can get corpses from vendors in Wildwood, and these corpses will also have types. For example, you can select an Eldritch corpse and bring it to Maven’s Arena to consume, which will then increase your damage done to Mavens by 15% and reduce your damage taken by 15% for the entire encounter or until you die. However, you can’t target corpses that you summoned yourself in abilities such as Desecrate.

With the introduction of Veruso’s Ambition in Necropolis, the corpse vendor system is gone, but the ability has not been modified, which only makes this skill harder to use than before. Unfortunately, Veruso’s Ambition is another thing that I think is rarely used.

Anyway, here are some of Necropolis-only unique items that will be entering the core drop pool in PoE 3.25. Let me know what you think of these items. See you next time!

Path of Exile 3.25 brings an exciting change to its fans, many quality-of-life upgrades are added to Settlers of Kalguur, and the biggest change is mainly the crucial boost to pickup range.

If someone nominates best ARPG, there may be many nominations, such as someone saying that as long as Diablo 2 is there, it will never be the second place, or Diablo 4 is the most novel game in recent years, or Last Epoch, Titan Quest, and Grim Dawn.

But no matter what the answer is, Path of Exile is usually not forgotten, even if it has certain shortcomings. With the launch of new Leagues, Path of Exile has also launched the most anticipated and valued updates by many players.

Many people believe that POE was built by a group of Diablo 2 fanatics because they saw unlimited prospects of this type of game. This game was released in 2013 and has since grown to become one of the most rewarding and richest ARPG games of all time.

Of all the games in the genre like Diablo 4, POE does it best. POE offers players endless possibilities and rich build potential, providing players with amazing depth and complexity. If this sounds like a complex game, you’d be wrong.

The game is still easy to play, even if you’re a novice who has never played such a game before. If you really doubt the truth of this statement, you can verify it.

Path of Exile Settlers of Kalguur is the upcoming patch for Path of Exile. The full content will be announced on Thursday, July 18th this week. Grinding Gear Games has announced the content that will be updated in the new League.

Including the weapons and equipment available after the update and POE Currency, but the most exciting news is the increase to pickup radius, which is in line with the call of the majority of players.

Increase To Pickup Radius

Being able to grab items from farther away may not sound very attractive, but in actual game, we can change a lot more. First, it prevents items from falling out of reach, although this rarely happens. Second, we can grab items while running without having to stop.

I believe many players have encountered this situation when they have to stop to pick up items while moving fast. After the increase to pickup radius, I believe this situation will also be reduced.

Waypoints Will Be Activated When You Run Past Them

Perhaps the next popular feature for players is that waypoints will now activate when you pass by him, which does not require us to activate directly, which is very convenient. It is said that this update is borrowed from Path of Exile 2 that is currently in development.

This is also very practical. We often use new characters zooming through zones and forget to activate fast travel points. This change saves me a lot of effort.

Map Device Will Get A Sixth Slot

Another welcome change is that in POE Endgame, this map device gets a 6th slot, which opens up a new world of possibilities for us. To unlock this, we either have to go through the first encounter with Maven, or complete a tier 17 map.

Bandit Quest Rewards

Another change is the bandit quest rewards, which have long been a part of character development, and the choices are pretty stable. But they offer unique attributes depending on your choice. Oak will increase your +40 to maximum life. Alira will apply +15% to all elemental resistances, and Kraityn will award +8% movement speed.

If you choose to kill them all, you only get one passive skill point instead of three. Health or mana effects are retained after you die. This means that when you head back into the fight, these effects are already there and you don’t have to turn them on again.

Some Other Changes

Act bosses and Endgame Pinnacle bosses have static life bars, which means we can keep track of their health bars. This change is also said to be introduced from POE 2. The item bonuses of both armor and weapons is multiplicative, which means that this will make him more powerful.

The required materials to upgrade item quality have also changed and are based on the item’s level rather than its rarity. This encourages us to use it at lower levels. A new item has been found on Blight maps, which is anoint new secret notables. This item can be used to apply to amulets.

Path of Exile 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur will be officially released on July 26th, and we can play this game on Steam or Grinding Gear Games launcher. The developer will hold a live broadcast on July 18th to announce some additional changes, themes and all new Patch.
