Changes to Path of Exile's Account System | Community_Team | 11/13 | ||
In order to support Path of Exile 1 and 2 sharing microtransactions as well as Cross Play between all supported platforms in Path of Exile 2, we have had to make some changes to our account system. Here are the changes you can expect with the patch in a few days.
DiscriminatorsOne of the annoying problems that we previously had was that creating new accounts with the name you wanted was very difficult. With so many accounts, new players often had to try 10 or more times to get a name that wasn't taken. Since we are merging all platforms accounts into a single account system, we knew that we had to deal with name conflicts anyway, so we have decided to add a "discriminator" number to the end of each account name. Sub-accountsThe next big change we are making is sub-accounts. There will be many players who have previously created an account on a console platform as well as on PC. These players can now merge these accounts together so that they can play across both platforms. When merging accounts, both sub-accounts will still exist and have their characters listed separately. Which account you are currently using can be selected with the account selection box at the top of the character selection screen after you log in. MicrotransactionsThe microtransactions purchased on an account are still associated with the individual sub account. If you previously had an account on one of the console realms and also an account on PC with purchases on both then you can ask support to move them into a single sub-account as a one time action. Characters can not be transferred between sub accounts so you should only do this if you intend to not use the moved microtransactions on that sub-account any more. Unfortunately, any purchases made on PlayStation platforms cannot be used on other platforms, and purchases made on other platforms cannot be used on PlayStation platforms. Note that these purchases can still be on the same sub-account, but the microtransactions will be marked as unavailable when viewing them in your stash. Merging Other Platform AccountsPath of Exile accounts have always been able to support logging in from multiple PC based platforms to the same account, but we are also now allowing you to merge separate accounts that were created on different PC platforms. If you previously unintentionally created multiple accounts on different platforms you can now merge these accounts together, but note that you can only merge one account created from each platform. For example, you can't merge multiple steam accounts into a single account. DowntimeTo ensure this patch goes smoothly Path of Exile will be unavailable for an extended period of time. We’re expecting this process to take around 4 hours. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. FAQWill I be able to play my Path of Exile 1 console characters on PC?
Spoiler
No. While you can share the same account on Path of Exile 1 on Console and PC, the characters will not be shared because Path of Exile 1 does not support Cross Play.
Will I be able to play my Path of Exile 2 console characters on PC when the game launches in Early Access?
Spoiler
Yes. Path of Exile 2 characters can be played across any platform.
After linking my Xbox and PC accounts, can I use microtransactions that were purchased on my Xbox account on my PC account and vice versa?
Spoiler
Yes, but by default the microtransactions on the two accounts will be in separate sub accounts. You can freely choose which sub-account you would like to use on either platform and the microtransactions originally purchased on that sub-account will be available for use on either platform.
You can also contact support if you would like to move the microtransactions onto the same sub account as a one time action, but note that we can not currently move your characters from one sub-account to the other, so you should only do this if you do not intend to use the moved microtransactions on that sub-account any more. What should I do if I link the wrong accounts together?
Spoiler
Take great care when linking your accounts together. If anything goes awry, contact support. They will be able to unmerge accounts.
If one of my secondary accounts gets banned or muted, will that affect my primary or other secondary accounts?
Spoiler
Yes, if one of your accounts is muted or banned, it will affect all associated accounts.
If my account is permanently banned in Path of Exile 1, will I be able to use it in Path of Exile 2?
Spoiler
No, you will have to create a new account.
Can I upgrade from a Supporter Pack purchased on console to a higher-tier pack on PC?
Spoiler
No. Supporter packs on PC and consoles are considered to be different packs so you can't upgrade between platforms. You can still use all the microtransactions and points between platforms on platforms for which sharing is allowed.
After Path of Exile 2 is launched in Early Access, will I be able to use the existing Path of Exile 1 account to play it?
Spoiler
Yes, you will be able to use the same Path of Exile 1 account to play Path of Exile 2, you would need to purchase a key to join Early Access though.
I logged into my account and I don't see my characters. Why?
Spoiler
In some cases we had to merge two accounts together. Both accounts are still accessible. Use the sub account selector at the top of the character selection screen to change which account you are logged in to.
This has occurred due to various bugs in the past that have led to multiple accounts being created with the same login credentials. If two accounts shared login credentials then we merged the accounts together into sub accounts on the same account. There are 6124 accounts that were merged in this way. There are also some cases where two accounts share some login credentials and not others. For example, two accounts share a steam login but one of the accounts also has a unique email address. In this case the steam login will be removed from the account that had both login methods connected, leaving both accounts accessible with different login methods. If you want to merge the accounts together, you can do so yourself here. There are 579 accounts that had login methods removed in this way. | ||||

Unlike Guy Fawkes, the Mercenary detonates his explosives every time! Cluster Grenade packs quite a punch by default, but we can take it even further by adding support gems like Multiple Projectiles and Faster Projectiles. I wonder if we can make them detonate faster ?

Path of Exile 3.26 Expansion Timeline | Community_Team | 11/01 | ||
Now that we've announced a new date of Early Access for Path of Exile 2, we would like to give an update on the timeline for our next Path of Exile 1 expansion.
3.26 Expansion TimelinePath of Exile 1 has received two new expansions this year with the ongoing Settlers of Kalguur being one of the most successful leagues ever. Despite the delay, launching Path of Exile 2 in Early Access this year is a very important milestone for us and we've been working very hard to make it happen.After many days of internal discussions, we made the decision to not launch the 3.26 expansion for Path of Exile 1 this year. We’re looking to announce this new league in early 2025 (think late January) however we have to remain flexible with this window as releasing an entirely new project can come with challenges that we cannot predict. This means that the Settlers league will be extended to early 2025. Join the Settlers of Kalguur event on November 7th PSTTo brighten up the wait, on November 7th PST we're launching a fresh version of the Settlers of Kalguur with a little twist, that would run in parallel with the ongoing Settlers League.By participating in this event you'll be able to play the Settlers league, in Standard, Hardcore, Solo Self-Found and Solo Self-Found Hardcore, with a fresh economy and a ladder reset. By reaching level 50 in any version of the event you will earn one guaranteed Settlers Mystery box per account. The Settlers challenges are also available in the event, so if you were planning to complete them, you will be able to do so. We've edited this to include Solo Self-Found and Hardcore Leagues In the event, monsters in every area are affected by a pool of mods which you will be able to manipulate upon entering that area, just like in Necropolis league. Unlike Necropolis league though, these mods will only be rewarding, like in this example: The mods are the same for all players and rotate once per hour in every area, including maps.
Will the event run on all platforms?Can I play my existing character?Will Necropolis crafting mechanics be available in the event?How do I join the event?Can I make Private League versions of this event?When will I receive a Mystery Box?What happens if I already have all of the microtransactions from the Settlers Mystery Box?Good luck, Exiles! We hope you have fun in this one. | ||||

Path of Exile 2 Delayed Three Weeks | Community_Team | 10/29 | ||
Unfortunately we have some bad news. We have to delay Early Access for 3 weeks. The new date is the 6th of December. We're really sorry about this one. People plan time off and things like that around our launches, but we just had to do it. So what happened? It turns out that it isn't the game itself that we are behind on, it's a bunch of server side infrastructure work that has taken us a lot longer than we expected. One of the key promises we made is that all your microtransactions will work across both Path of Exile 1 and 2. In order to do that, we have to integrate the account systems for not only Path of Exile 1 and 2, but also for the console realms as well. We have to get everything perfect so that nobody loses anything they paid for, and nobody has their account broken. So with that in mind, we have decided to delay. We are going to be having a livestream talking all about the content you can expect in Path of Exile 2's Early Access in about 4 weeks. You can think of it like the biggest league announcement we have ever done. We're really looking forward to telling you all about the endgame content that the team has been working hard on. Until then though, thanks for your support. | ||||

Still bleeding even though......... | Mark_GGG | 10/10 | ||
Being "unaffected" by a debuff does not stop that debuff being inflicted, it means that debuff being on you does not inflict any of it's stats. In the case of bleeding, that stat is physical damage over time. So while you are unaffected by bleeding, bleeding will still be inflicted on you, and this is correct. But it won't be causing any damage. | ||||
