In just 30 minutes the Legacy of Phrecia event will begin! If you’re unsure what the Legacy of Phrecia is, find out more about it here.

During this event you’ll be able to finish off any Keepers of the Flame Challenges you were still aiming to complete.

For those of you running low on character slots, we’re running a sale on these right now so you can pick some up at a discounted price.

We’re also bringing back the Legacy of Phrecia cosmetic bundles! Most of the bundles contain a full armour set as well as extra cosmetic effects that come at a bigger discount than we usually offer in our daily deals rotation. The bundles will be available for the duration of the Legacy of Phrecia event, so don’t miss out on them.



If you’ve not joined an event league before, don’t worry, it's very simple. Just hit create on the character select screen and scroll across to the Phrecia 2.0 banners, select Hardcore, Standard or a ssf variant of either of these and then you’re in.



Whether you’re pushing challenges, trying something new, or just jumping in for the fun of it, we hope you have a fantastic time in the Legacy of Phrecia. Good luck, and we’ll see you in Wraeclast!

Our ongoing Talent Competition is in full swing, and we've picked out another bunch of recent submissions to share with you. Check them out below!

Embrace the bizarre when the Legacy of Phrecia returns to Path of Exile on January 29th (PST)! With 19 alternate Ascendancy classes, battle through areas altered by map modifiers, and face enraged bosses that push your builds and your skill to the limit.

• Start Date: 1PM January 29th PST
  
• End Date:1PM February 19th PST
• Based on: Keepers
  
• Platforms: PC and Consoles
  
• Standard and Hardcore Solo Self-Found versions available.
  
• This event is not voided. Items and characters will transfer to parent leagues at the end of the event. Upon migration, your characters’ Ascendancy points will be respecced and you'll be assigned one of the core Ascendancy classes.
  

In the Legacy of Phrecia event, all the 19 Ascendancy classes you are familiar with will be replaced with new ones. Become a Servant of Arakaali and raise spiders to fight alongside you; use the powers of nature itself as the Daughter of Oshabi or just ascend into a Harbinger - this event manifests the wildest ideas of our design team into reality.

If you didn’t play in the original Legacy of Phrecia event you can check out the Ascendancies here. Do note that there have been some balance changes that will vary from this and will be available in the patch notes prior to the event.

Idols will also be making a comeback! Since the last time we ran this event, we’ve added a new set of modifiers for the Settlers League and Atlas Memories, but disabled modifiers for Breach. Craft a unique endgame experience by mixing and matching mechanics together as you see fit. With the new Asynchronous trade system getting your perfect set of idols has never been easier!

In addition to this, we’ve also sprinkled a few extra twists into the mix. To start with, every area will have a random number of map modifiers, with this number scaling up with area level. We’ve removed many modifiers from the pool that would brick builds, such as reflect.

Campaign bosses, as well as some Pinnacles have also developed a few new mechanics for you to overcome. All unique monsters will also enrage on low life.


By reaching levels 50 and 90 you will automatically receive a Third Edict Mystery Box. If you already own all of the contents from this series of Mystery Box then you’ll instead receive 2 x Atlantis Mystery Box.

How do I join?
The Legacy of Phrecia will be available as a separate league option on the character creation screen.

Will the Legacy of Phrecia event run on all platforms?
Yes. The event is available on PC and Consoles.

Can I play my existing character?
No, you’ll need to make a new character.

Can I change my Ascendancy class during the event?
Yes.

Will I get multiple Mystery Boxes by leveling multiple characters in the event?
No, you will only receive these rewards once per account, so additional characters will not be granted additional rewards.
