Path of Exile 3.26 gets bigger right before launch, as GGG adds mercenary renown

Path of Exile 3.26 just got even bigger right before launch. Seemingly not content with the sweeping overhauls and additions in its Secrets of the Atlas update, developer Grinding Gear Games has introduced a bonus mechanic right at the last minute. The renown system expands this season's challenge league, Mercenaries of Trarthus, by rewarding you for your successes in battle and punishing you for ducking out of dangerous fights. If you need any more reasons to be excited for the new Path of Exile league start, GGG has your back.
