Path of Exile News

We're continuing our latest community designed microtransaction series today by opening up a poll for you to pick which Epic and Dark Wing design you'd like to see. The options available in this poll are based on your suggestions from our most recent post in the series.

This poll will be open for one week. After this, we'll get you to decide between the top two ideas. Finally, we refine the top choice for the last few stages of this process. We can't wait to see what you decide!

To join the poll, head over to the news post on our forum by clicking here.

You can upgrade from one of these Supporter Packs to another in the same series by clicking "Upgrade" on the desired pack. The process will include any pure points packs purchased since 1pm December 20th PDT. The maximum amount that upgrades can contribute is 80% of the value of a pack.

Upgrades can be done automatically via the store by pressing M in game. If you run into any issues, please don't hesitate to contact us at [email protected] and we'll be happy to help.

We hope you really enjoy these Supporter Packs! Thank you so much for your generous support!

Later this week (likely on Tuesday, December 21st at 4pm PST) we'll deploy a fix to an issue in Standard league that would fail the conversion of the entire map stash tab upon converting an old map into another map that you didn't have enough room for. As a result of this fix, the map stash (and guild map stash) functionality has been changed to the following:

• Your first purchased map stash will always be set to the current map series.
  
• If the map series changes and your map stash is not empty, it will become remove-only and you will get a new empty map stash set to the current series.
  
• You can only change the map series on a map stash if you still have at least one non-remove-only map stash set to the current series after the change. This means that you won't be able to change the map stash series to store legacy maps if you have only purchased one map stash. Because of this, we'll be offering a refund option to anyone who bought a single map stash solely for collecting legacy maps. Please contact our customer support at [email protected] if this is the case for you.
  
• Convert Maps no longer converts the current map stash in-place. It instead converts as many maps as it can find space for in your non-remove-only current series map stash(es). If you run out of space for specific converted maps, they will be left in the source map stash unconverted.
  
• Convert Maps now has a progress bar and can be cancelled/resumed.
  

Following on from our first showcase of runner-ups from our Scourge Fan Art Competition last week, we wanted to share the incredible work of the remaining runner-ups! Check them out!

Get ready to spend the next 10 days in the company of skilled rogues as the Endless Heist Event starts at Noon December 17 (PST)! If you're interested in participating, you can find more information about this event and prizing here.

While we have your attention, we'd like to mention that during the Endless Heist event next week (likely on Tuesday, December 21st at 4pm PST) we'll deploy a small update which requires a realm restart.

Twitch Drops will be running for the first day of the Endless Heist, so if you're unable to play from the start, be sure to watch the action on Twitch in order to get the Temple Portal Effect!

[h2]How to receive Twitch Drops[/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 have accumulated enough watch time (2 hours) to earn your Portal Effects, you must redeem them from your Twitch Inventory before they will be available in your microtransactions list in Path of Exile.

Best of luck everyone!
