Path of Exile News

In Path of Exile: Affliction, we've added over 100 Transfigured Gems! Here's the first batch of them, with more to come this week!

In the Affliction expansion, we've made changes to many existing Skill, Support, and Vaal Skill gems. Today's post includes the gem data at level 20 with 20% quality for all the changed gems. We'll also be posting the Transfigured gems in batches this week!

Check out the changes in today's news post on the Path of Exile website here.

During the launch of Path of Exile: Affliction on December 8th PST, you'll be able to earn the Ice Tiger Pet with Twitch Drops! If you haven't already done so, be sure to link your Path of Exile account with your Twitch account!

[h2]How to Participate[/h2]
Just simply link your Path of Exile account to Twitch (see below) and watch any Path of Exile stream on Twitch* between 11AM Friday December 8th PST and 11AM December 15th PST.

You will get the Ice Tiger Pet after 4 hours of accumulated watch time on any channel streaming Path of Exile during the event. This means that the drops are 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 the launch of Affliction 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 Ice Tiger Pet, you must redeem it from your Twitch Inventory before the promotional period ends. They will then be available in your microtransactions list in Path of Exile.

See you at the launch!
