Grinding Gear Games seemingly plans on following a long-lived pattern with a flow of peddling for the newly launched microtransactions to the Synthesis league. By convention, this kind of sales campaign won't last too short until every type of cosmetics, weapons, effects, pets, and other microtransactions on the shelf are covered in previous commercial ads published on the official forum. Path of Exile now is doing the duty as a moneymaker for its master - saying with no sense of contempt, it's not always the best time to profiteer with so desperate moves. Earlier today in the morning, after brief puffery of the Synthesis premiere and numbers of in-game players in the first announcement, Grinding Gear Games moved to the sales zone without a hint. From the second post to the sixth, There are all sorts of advertisements for the exclusive "Synthesis brimmed hat", the "Unique Collection Tab", hideouts or even the Exilecon Tickets among them, except for the...

It's been 3 days after Path of Exile: Synthesis league first released on PC on March 8th, also, less than 12 hours before the same content goes live on Xbox One. Some of the gamers who didn't really catch up on the major update and still hope to get involved must wonder if the new Synthesis league is worth playing or not. Here are some facts we 've collected and clarified for sure that might help with that situation. So far, Synthesis league made impressive progress on players' engagement and likability. Based on the Steam Chart and official statistics, the peak player concurrency of the game was 176,700 in last three days, which remarkably set the second largest record in this game's history. "It was an inspiring record indeed, " a veteran Path of Exile player named Todd told to our reporter, "however, given that the number one position was made by its last instalment - Betrayal league, and the present league still looks weaker in number.

Path of Exile declared a new patch would release before the Synthesis League goes live. The upcoming patch is presumably the last one of the Betrayal League. Also, it may be a blend of the warm-up round for next league and the last "tie-up-the-loose-ends" work. And that's very typical and commonly acknowledged for the game's development patterns, considering it's already happened to several predecessors.  The patch, or should call 3.5.4b patch to be precise, has very limited contents yet extremely crucial cause each of them is hard to be overlooked. In this patch, the game determined to open up the entry to build private leagues based on the Synthesis league for all Path of Exile Gamers, however, note that those private leagues will not be accessible and functional until the Synthesis goes live on March 8th.  The Private League is quite a hit in Path of Exile since it has been rolled out back in November 2018.

As the first announcement of the game's next league went live, Grinding Gear Games has managed to unveil its reputedly great plan of integrating Betrayal Expansion into the core game mechanic in Path of Exile based on the announcement. Although it barely mentioned how this integration works and what will happen after the integration, the announcement seemed to be off to a great start and now the bombshell comes - Development Manifesto from Grinding Gear Games!  As a matter of fact, the Betrayal League still concerns the most of Path of Exile gamers, even though it's been told to be succeeded by Synthesis League in next month. Today's Development Manifesto is sort of a further explanation and declaration of the original statement "an integrated version of the Betrayal league and much, much more" in the Synthesis league announcement. Although turns out, players are not so exhilarated and contented for this Manifesto as they heard the news from the original...

Alongside the release of the Synthesis League on March 8th, there are some attached new contents will be deployed to Path of Exile too. Among these improvements, one particularly intriguing element is the spellcasting overhaul. It's believed that there haven't been any major updates of spellcasting in the game since the Delve league had launched back in 2018. So this overhaul is sort of the long-awaited improvement for the Path of Exile players.  Earlier today, Grinding Gear Games posted its first batch of unveiled specifics regarding the spells overhaul. Two upcoming new Auras called Zealotry and Malevolence respectively will be introduced to the game in March Update. The Auras are subject to the debuff/buff system and also function as a spellcasting reinforcer. It means that any in-game Auras are the items that can enhance the spell damages more or less in their own ways. Also, as its name implies, it usually shows up with a round shape, a certain radius which c...
