To celebrate the launch of Keepers of the Flame, we’re hosting an Uber Boss Kill Event where Path of Exile players can compete to slay the Uber Incarnation of Dread in the Keepers HC SSF League. Event Times and Dates Start: Nov 13, 2025 01:00 PM PST End: Nov 20, 2025 01:00 PM PST Prizes PC: The first player who kills the Uber Incarnation of Dread will receive an Alienware 16X Aurora gaming laptop. Alienware 16X Aurora Gaming Laptop Intel® Core™ Ultra 9 275HX, 24 cores Windows 11 Home NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 5070 64 GB DDR5 2 TB SSD 16" Non-Touch QHD+ The top 5 players who kill the Uber Incarnation of Dread will receive a microtransaction bundle: Celestial Warlord Armour Pack Celestial Warlord Back Attachment Divergence Weapon Effect Celestial Emperor Finisher Effect Breach Hedron Portal Midnight Pact Character Effect Harmony Footprints Effect Tumbling Exalted Orb Pet Everyone who reaches level 50 in the event will receive one guaranteed Third Edict Mystery Box. How to Join At the character selection screen, there's a panel below your characters which will list the events available. You can join the event by clicking 'join'. This option becomes available 30 minutes before the event is set to begin. Your character won't be able to move until the event starts. Rules If there are operational problems with the event (like significant realm stability issues at launch), Grinding Gear Games may restart the event at any point. The way we will do this is to create a new event league and indicate that players who wish to compete in the new event must make new characters there. Placings and prize eligibility are entirely at the discretion of Grinding Gear Games. While the event being SSF reduces a lot of scope for outside help, any form of account sharing (or other breaches of the Terms of Use) will disqualify a player from receiving prizes. Grinding Gear Games Employees (past or present) are not eligible for prizes. Players who have played on the Alpha realm (when the expansion was first deployed) are not eligible for prizes. Dying or migrating your character out of the league doesn't remove prize eligibility as long as the kill occurred while in the league. Good luck in the event!

It’s been almost a week since the launch of Keepers of the Flame, and our team continues to monitor community feedback. Over the past few days, we’ve deployed several hotfixes and a patch to address some of the issues players have been experiencing. In this news post, we’d like to outline what we’re currently working on. We are re-assessing the rewards from Breach monsters in map areas with an eye towards making the league mechanic encounters more rewarding directly, and thus more worth the time to engage with. We’re aware of the feedback regarding Hive encounters, with players frustrated by having to spend too much time destroying walls before the encounter. We’re investigating an option to allow a large number of walls to be destroyed at the start of the encounter. We have another batch of Foulborn uniques which didn’t quite make it into launch and will be going in with the next restart patch. Outside of Breach-specific changes, we are aware of feedback from players that late endgame farming strategies are currently lacking in diversity and progression. We are putting together a list of adjustments to address this, with an emphasis on making currently underperforming strategies more competitive. We are targeting next week for the release of these changes. A larger amount of changes to this area are planned for 3.28. We plan to deploy some of these changes, along with additional fixes and improvements, next week. Keep an eye out on the news for the full list of changes. Thank you for your continued feedback!
