[h2]How to Participate[/h2]
Simply link your Path of Exile account to Twitch (see below) and tune into GGG Live at www.twitch.tv/pathofexile, or any channel in the Path of Exile Directory for 45 minutes. Drops will be enabled from 1PM PDT until 10PM PDT.

You will get the Skull of Undeath Helmet Skin after 45 minutes of accumulated watch time on any channel with drops enabled streaming Path of Exile during the event. This means that the drop is guaranteed for everyone who has watched any Path of Exile stream for this amount of time. This promotion is available for all accounts.

If you’re planning to stream Path of Exile during our livestream and want to enable Twitch Drops for your viewers, you can do it via your Twitch Creator Dashboard here.

[h2]Linking your Path of Exile Account to Twitch[/h2]
Visit your Twitch Settings page while logged in. If your account isn't connected, click the "Connect" button for Twitch under "Other Connections". Complete the process on Twitch and you will be redirected back to your Twitch Settings page. If your account is already connected, this page should say "Your Path of Exile account is currently linked to your Twitch account."

After you've accumulated enough watch time to earn your Skull of Undeath Helmet Skin, you must redeem them from your Twitch Inventory before the promotional period ends. Then they will be immediately available in your microtransactions list in Path of Exile 1, and will also be available for use in Path of Exile 2 later. The Skull of Undeath Helmet Skin will be available for purchase from the store at a later date.

We can’t wait to share all the secrets of the Atlas with you! To stay up to date in the lead up to the livestream be sure to check out our Twitter, Facebook and Forums. We'll see you at GGG Live at www.twitch.tv/pathofexile!

When Grinding Gear Games first announced Path of Exile 2, it made a promise: PoE1 wasn't going anywhere, and development on both titles would continue in parallel. Ten months after the last Path of Exile league, it's clear that the studio bit off a bit more than it can chew, but game director Jonathan Rogers was optimistic in a new interview with YouTuber Talkative Tri this week that things are close to being back on track...

[h2]FAQ[/h2]

How can I create/join a free Private League?

The free Private League templates will be available on this page after a patch later this week. When those go live, you will be able to choose a template from the drop down list.



When the Private League based on the selected template has been created, the owner will be able to generate a link which they can share to invite up to 20,000 players. Simply accept the invite and then you’ll be able to create a character when the Private League starts.

Will these templates always be available going forward?

No, these templates will only be available during the event period (May 1st - May 30th PDT).

What happens with Alternate Ascendancies and the Idols system after these templates are no longer available?

They may return in the form of Private League templates or separate events in the future. We are not planning to add them to the core game.

Are the events voided?

No.

Are there Hardcore options?

Yes, all templates are available in Hardcore and Standard.

How will Affliction work?

Affliction will behave as it does in 3.25, just not exclusive to t16+ maps. This means no Wildwood Ascendancies or Charms.

How will Sentinels work?

Sentinels will also behave as they do in 3.25, just not exclusive to t16+ maps.

We hope you'll have fun playing in these Private Leagues. See you soon!
