In today's news post, we're answering a few common questions about the November Events that start from next week.
I'm new to Path of Exile. How do these events work?
Events are temporary leagues, typically with unique modifiers that you wouldn't find in Standard or the current Challenge League to give the player a different and challenging experience.
New characters will need to be created to participate in these events by joining the event. Characters will migrate to their parent leagues at the conclusion of the event unless the event is voided.
You can join an event by clicking "Join" in the event panel found under your list of characters in the character selection screen. This option will become available 30 minutes before the event is set to begin. You'll be able to log into your character, but you won't be able to move your character until the event starts.
Why are there no Hardcore or Solo Self-Found versions of the events?
We've decided not to run Hardcore versions of the event to prevent splitting the playerbase too much. However, we've decided to add Solo Self-Found versions of all three events. This will allow players who prefer racing against other solo players to do so without needing to compete with groups.
The Solo Self-Found events will share the same microtransaction prize pool for randomly drawn prizes, but they will have their own statues and microtransaction bundles for the top players.
Characters created in the Solo Self-Found events will be migrated to the appropriate Solo Self-Found parent league at the conclusion of the events.
Please note that Solo Self-Found events will only be available on PC due to Solo Self-Found player populations on console realms.
Is the Krangled Passive Tree the same as it was last time?
No, the passive tree and Ascendancy nodes have been shuffled again since the last time we ran the event.
Will I be able to use tattoos on passive skills in the Krangled event?
Yes. Bear in mind that tattoos still have application requirements, so for example, you'll need to find the appropriate small attribute skill before applying the basic tattoos!
Are we getting old touched mobs from the Kalandra League?
No, rare monsters will have the new rare monster modifiers as they are now. No cull service required 🙂
How much experience do you end up losing on death due to the ''You lose 5x experience on death'' modifier?
No loss prior to the Kitava battle in Act 5.
25% loss after the Act 5 Kitava battle, until killing Kitava in Act 10.
50% loss thereafter.
Will Mirrored Tablets migrate at the end of the Blast from the Past event since it's not voided?
Mirrored Tablets will be deleted before migration at the end of the event.
Will we be able to use Recombinators on mirrored items?
No, Recombinators will not be usable on mirrored items.
Is it possible to complete the ''Out of the Gate'' achievement in these events?
Yes
Will it be possible to earn credit towards Ancestor challenge rewards during these events?
You will be able to complete challenges in the Krangled event as its parent league is Ancestor Challenge League, however you will not be able to in Blast from the Past or Shifting Stones because their parent league is Standard.
Please consider moving the Krangled league to last. This will be the least played league, and will have a reduced impact due to the US holiday at the end of the event.
I would love to see krangled where everyone’s passive trees are randomly generated, this would be much more fun, I guess it would be kinda hard to implement but would be a great challenge and people wouldn’t feel the need to check what is the best route to take
