Patch notes

These are the official patch notes for Path of Exile 2 version 0.3.1 released by Grinding Gear Games.^[1]

This patch contains major changes to the Endgame detailed in our recent news post, increases to the base Remnant pickup range, in addition to many other changes and bug fixes.

Endgame Changes

You no longer need Towers to use Precursor Tablets, instead, Tablets can now be placed into the Map Device to add their bonuses directly to your Map.

Tablets now have a fixed number of uses, as described by its Implicit Modifier.

Each time you use a Tablet while running a Map, the number of remaining uses on the Tablet decreases. Once it reaches zero, the Tablet is destroyed.

You can use up to 3 Tablets with each Map, but the number of slots available is based on how many modifiers the Map has. Running a Map with 6 Modifiers will enable all 3 of the Tablets slots on the Map Device.

Tablets cannot be applied to areas that have already been attempted.

Towers can still be used to gain visibility on the Atlas, and they will also drop an extra Precursor Tablet as a reward for completing them.

Non-Unique Tablets now have 10 uses (previously 12 to 18), or in the case of the Overseer's TabletOverseer Precursor TabletEmpowers the Map Boss of a Map
10 uses remainingCan be used in a personal Map Device to add modifiers to a Map. it now has 10 uses (previously 2 to 4).

As your tablets are now directly applied to your Maps, this means that you can now apply the content you desire to every single Map you run (assuming you have the tablet supply). However, the ceiling for the amount of content you can apply to a single Map has been lowered. Overall this results in a more streamlined and consistent experience, but in order to not have the ceiling come down too far, we’ve buffed the modifiers on Tablets:

We've also added 7 new Tablet modifiers:

Crystallised: Area contains an additional Essence

Exiled: Area is inhabited by 1 additional Rogue Exile

Summoner's: Area contains an additional Summoning Circle

of the Antiquarian: Area contains an additional Strongbox

of the Devoted: Area contains an additional Shrine

of the Summoning: Area has 25 to 50% increased chance to contain a Summoning Circle

All Maps now contain Map Bosses (except for some Unique Maps and Hideouts). To complete a Map you are only required to kill the Boss, you no longer have to kill any Rares and you can do as much or as little of the rest of the Map as you please.

The existing icons that currently indicate there is a Map Boss now instead signify the area contains a Powerful Map Boss that is extra challenging and rewarding.

The following Map Boss Atlas Passive Skills now require a Powerful Boss to be present in the Map: Beyond Reality, Crystal Realm, Directed Worship, Drawn To Light, Old Pirate's Trick, and Organised Forces.

Map Areas now generate with 1 to 3 extra random content, including Breach, Delirium, Ritual, Expedition, Shrines, Strongboxes, Essences, Wisps, Rogue Exiles, and Summoning Circles.

This content will be added in addition to the content added by your Tablets and Map Modifiers, and selected afterwards. If you have a Modifier that adds an Expedition Encounter, which cannot have more than 1 in an area, a different type of extra content is selected instead.

Content icons for Breach, Delirium, Ritual and Expedition have been removed from the Atlas.

The size of the following Map Areas has been reduced: Penitentiary, Vaal City, Channel, Bastille, Grimhaven, Epitaph, Oasis, Augury, Hidden Grotto, Wetlands, Savannah, Blooming Field, Rupture, Slick, and Fortress.

The number of Monster Packs in lower-Tier Maps has been reduced by roughly 30%. As you proceed through the tiers, the number of Monsters Packs will increase so that by Tier 15 it is the same as it was before.

Adjusted the composition of all naturally spawning Monster Packs in Maps. This results in more packs of a smaller number of Monsters, but roughly the same total amount of Monsters in a Map.

The Ground Effects for the "of Ice", "of Lightning", and "of Flames" Map Modifiers now cover 75% less of the Map on Tier 1 to 5 Waystones, 68% less on Tier 6 to 10 Waystones, and 62% less on Tier 11 or higher Waystones.

Increased the chance of Citadels spawning by 66%.

Rise of the Abyssal Changes

The Well of Souls now shows a more detailed description for the type of Passive Skill nodes the revealed modifier options will affect.

Enabled the Eruption of Souls Abyssal Rare Monster Modifier.

Player Changes

When calculating chance to Hit vs Players or their Minions, we now use the following formula: Chance to Hit = 1 - (0.95 * defender_evasion) / (defender_evasion + 4 * attacker_accuracy)

The chance to hit formula vs Monsters is unchanged.

Player's no longer receive Evasion Rating scaling with level. Player base Evasion Rating is now 7 (previously 27). This will result in all classes having a 5% chance to evade baseline at level 1 with no equipment.

Monster Accuracy Rating scaling has been adjusted slightly to account for the above changes.

The base pickup radius for all Remnants has been increased by approximately 50%.

The Stormweaver's Remnant Range Ascendancy Passive Skills now have "Remnants can be collected from 20% further away" (previously 30%).

The Principal Infusion Notable Passive Skill now has "Remnants can be collected from 20% further away" (previously 15%).
