Affliction Balance Changes

We've deployed the 3.23 Hotfix 8 which significantly reduces the damage of Wisp Empowered monsters in the Affliction league. We'll continue to keep an eye on your feedback and make adjustments as necessary. The full patch notes have been included below:

3.23.0 Hotfix 8

• Significantly reduced the amount of damage dealt by Wisp Empowered monsters.
• Reduced the Attack, Cast, and Movement Speeds of Vivid Wisp Empowered Monsters.
• Decreased the amount of Wisps dropped from Empowered Non-Unique Monsters in the Viridian Wildwood by 30-40% depending on their rarity.

These changes are applied to new areas created after this hotfix.

Update your Item Filters for Valdo's Puzzle Box

Our newest Core Supporter Packs allows Sandwraith Assassin Supporters on PC to leave their mark on Path of Exile by designing their own foil Tier 17 map. They can choose the map's modifiers, reward, and a message that displays after the reward is picked up.

We plan to enable the first batch of submissions for Valdo's Puzzle Box within the next few days, which means you'll need to update your Item Filters to make sure you don't miss a drop!

Valdo's Puzzle Box will have the "Stackable Currency" Item Class, and when opened, will drop a Tier 17 Map.

We can't wait to see your maps dropping in game soon! If you'd like to get involved, be sure to check out our new Core Supporter Packs here!

Thanks for your support!
