Path of Exile's July update lands today with a new deep-sea challenge league, the Luminary Ascendancy for the Scion, and major reworks to Abyss, Legion, and item sockets.
Grinding Gear Games previewed two pieces of Path of Exile's next expansion: Voyages, a system for plundering beneath Wraeclast's seas, and a batch of new and reworked gems to theorycraft ahead of launch.
Days before 3.29 goes live, Grinding Gear Games put out a video walking through the quality-of-life work in Curse of the Allflame: immunity while channelling Verisium Ore, a crafting bench in every town from Act 2 onward, and a real inventory window for the Animate Guardian.
The "Death Awakening" season promised something else, but the low drop rate of the coveted mythic items has the community fired up. Blizzard says it's working on a fix.
The July expansion adds a new challenge league, reworks Abyss and Legion, brings back the Mercenaries of Trarthus, and introduces colorless skill gem sockets.
