Path of Exile News

Today, we thought it would be interesting to take a look at some Ritual Statistics to see how everyone is faring and what kinds of rewards players are taking away from Rituals!

• Rituals Started: 624,332,098
  
• Rituals Completed: 600,943,858
  
• Rituals Failed: 23,371,627
  

As you can see, players have been extremely busy with Rituals. This comes out to 20,139,745 Rituals run per day since Ritual began (at the time of writing), or just over 23 Rituals every second!

Completion rate of Rituals is actually quite high, at just over 96%.

So, lots of Rituals have been completed, but let's take a look at what players are running Rituals for in the first place: rewards!



As noted above, these are the times that a given Favour was bought from a Ritual, but doesn't factor in stack sizes (where applicable). It's worth keeping in mind that the numbers above reflect how often a reward was taken, rather than how often it was offered. So while Scarabs appear to be almost as common as Orbs of Fusing, since players have full control over what they purchase, the items that players value will see higher than usual representation.

If you're wondering how many maps you'd need to run on average before you'll be offered a Mirror of Kalandra, wonder no more. Just over 500,000! So what are you still reading for?

That wraps up part one of our Ritual Statistics. Are there any other specific items you'd like to know the frequency of? Let us know and we'll do our best to include some of them in part two, coming next week!

The Maven Kill event, organised with the support of Zizaran and his sponsor, concluded earlier this week which means it’s time to announce the full list of winners.

The Ritual Supporter Packs will be available until the announcement of our 3.15 expansion.
If you are wondering how our extended Heist league has impacted our release schedule, we wrote about our expected timeline for 2021 here.

The dazzling cosmetic effects from the previous Twilight Mystery Box are now available in the store! It’s also still possible to combine some of the individual Sunrise and Nightfall microtransactions into the ‘Twilight’ cosmetic effects. You can see all of the cosmetics that have been made available in the Twilight Mystery Box trailer below or you can view everything that is new to the store here.

If you would like to add a touch of extra glamour to your hideout then check out the new Twilight Stash Skin Bundle. This bundle replaces the standard look of your Stash and Guild Stash with elegant, purple and gold themed ones. You can equip your Stash Skin by checking under the ‘Twilight’ theme in the Hideout Cosmetics UI and placing the item in your hideout. Please note that both microtransactions are only available within your hideout and will not be displayed in town instances.
