Keepers of the Flame FAQ

Following the Keepers of the Flame Content Reveal last week, we've seen a lot of questions about this update to Path of Exile. Check out the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions below.

[h2]What is happening with content that is tied to Breach?[/h2]
Breachstones will still work in standard, but are unobtainable in Keepers Leagues.

Breach Scarabs will be unavailable in the Keepers league.

Chayula on Maven’s Invitation: The Feared has been replaced with the Incarnation of Ignorance.

Maven’s Invitation: The Hidden is now replaced with The Remembered, requiring Witness of Courtyard of Wasting, Chambers of Impurity and Theatre of Lies.

It That Fled does not appear in Betrayal encounters in Keepers Leagues.


[h2]Will the identification of items use the Ctrl+Click shortcut from Path of Exile 2?[/h2]
The quick shortcut for item identification is Ctrl+Alt+Click on Mouse and Keyboard.


[h2]Can all uniques be Foulborn?[/h2]
Not all uniques can be Foulborn, the list of uniques that can be is still ongoing however there will be more than one hundred. Uniques that come from specific sources, such as boss uniques cannot be Foulborn.

[h2]Have there been any changes made to the frequency of finding Aul in Delve?[/h2]
The frequency of Aul appearing in Delve is unchanged.

[h2]Will Faustus in the Rogue harbour also be able to manage asynchronous trade?[/h2]
Faustus asynchronous trade will only be available in hideouts.

[h2]Will we be able to change our Bloodline ascendancy and how?[/h2]
Yes, you can respec your current Bloodline ascendancy with another for free (after defeating a relevant boss). Otherwise, you can use Orbs of Regret or gold to respec those points like normal ascendancy points (5 refund points each).

[h2]Can multiple party members all get the same Bloodline ascendancy from the same boss?[/h2]
Yes, assuming they are in the fight when the boss is killed.

[h2]Will Windburst Support work with movement from things like Flame Dash or Flicker Strike?[/h2]
Yes. It counts movement from travel skills as well as regular movement.

[h2]Will graft skills scale off my damage and am I able to die from my graft skills reflected damage?[/h2]
Graft skills do not scale off of player stats, but do have affixes which will affect their skills in many ways. Since graft damage is not dealt by the player, reflected damage will not be dealt back to the player from graft skill use.

[h2]How many Spectral Tigers can you have and how much Critical Chance, Attack and Cast Speed do they give?[/h2]
You can have up to 5 of them and each of them grants 25% Increased Critical Chance, 7% Increased Attack Speed and 7% Increased Cast Speed.

We’ll continue to monitor for questions and will continue to update this post when we do.

Thank you so much for your continued support, we'll see you at launch!
