      Vaal Breach

      Vaal Breach is a vaal Spell that creates a Breach portal at the player's location.

      Skill functions and interactions

      Vaal Breach is a colourless gem that can be placed into any item socket.

      While monsters spawned through Vaal Breach grant no experience or item drops, it is still a very useful gem. It can be used to reliably proc effects suchs as "On Kill", "On Crit" or "On Hit" and if a rare monster is killed their mods can be gained if a Headhunter or Inspired Learning is equipped.

      All characters inside the vaal breach gain double modifiers on Breach Rings.

      Version history

      VersionChanges
      3.19.0
    • Problem: Due to a technical limitation, Vaal Breach is not able to be obtained through corrupting page=Portal (gem) Gems.
    • Solution: Vaal Breach now has a chance to drop from killing Breachlords in areas opened from Flawless Breachstones.
      • 3.14.0
    • Many unique items that were league-specific have now also been added to the core drop pool.
    • Vaal Skill Gems can now only be obtained from a set of specific methods such as Corrupting Gems, Vaal Side Areas, Divination Cards (that specifically grant Vaal Skill Gems) and the Lapidary Lens in the Temple of Atzoatl.
    • * (wiki editor note: Vaal Breach is probably not included in the above changes, as it was never a valid Vaal Skill Gem to obtain from these sources to begin with. The patch note is part of a larger set of changes that reduced the drop sources of Vaal Skill Gems in general.)
      • 3.8.2 Fixed a bug where being in a Breach created by Vaal Breach removed the Darkness debuff.
      2.5.0
    • Vaal Breach has been added to the game, initially as Breach league specific item.
