    Patch 3.9 (Conquerors of the Atlas & Metamorph League) Compiled Information Thread

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 04:18 PM PST

    Non-3.9 info revealed at ExileCon has been compiled here.

    This thread is a compilation of all 3.9.0-related information. All the teasers we get in announcements, videos, news coverage and forum posts will be organised and posted here. If you find anything missing or incorrect, please comment so I can add it to the list. Thanks!

     

     

    Brand New Info (check this section daily to stay up to date)

     

     

    Major Announcements & News Posts

     

     

    Minor/Miscellaneous Announcements

    • Lioneye's Watch and some other early-game areas will be receiving a visual upgrade.

     

     

    Conquerors of the Atlas

    • The war against The Elder has been won...but not by you. In this new timeline, different exiles helped Zana, but were driven mad in the process. The player characters now have to help Zana deal with the aftermath.

    • The Shaper and Elder are no longer the main endgame antagonists, though their fights will still be accessible through Zana missions and other (currently unannounced) means. Instead, the exiles who conquered The Elder have made the Atlas their home. Four of these are Elder-tier fights, and a fifth is the new Shaper-tier fight.

    • The Atlas has received enormous changes. Details of the currently announced changes are presented here.

    • Four new types of item influence are available, similar to the existing Shaper and Elder items. Each of these has its own unique mod pool, though many of the mods are shared with the Shaper and Elder mod pools. Mods known so far are posted below. Shaper and Elder items will still exist, though they will be less accessible.

    • Four new types of exalted orb can drop from the new Conqueror bosses. These add modifiers from the influenced mod pool to items, though they do not cause the item to gain that influence.

    • The new bosses can also drop Plus versions of existing support gems, which are upgraded versions with stronger effects (but much more difficulty levelling requirements). See below for a list of the Plus support gems revealed so far.

    • Through currently unspecified means, you will be able to make items with two influence types, allowing you to roll mods from two different special mod pools at once.

     

     

    The Metamorph Challenge League

    • Defeated enemies will drop samples (body parts) for you to collect. Combinations of five samples can be given to the alchemist Tane Octavius to create a new monster with traits inherited from the samples used, which you will have to fight. Different samples will increase the difficulty and rewards of the fight.

    • Samples collected from regular enemies are not tradeable, and can only be used in the same zone they are collected in.

    • Making a hard enough monster in an endgame map will reward you with a sample of the map's boss. These are tradeable, and five can be used to create a Metamorph boss combining the abilities of multiple map bosses. These are the endgame fights of Metamorph league and will have exclusive rewards.

    • Rewards can include Catalysts, new crafting items that add quality to jewelry (rings, amulets and belts). Unlike other items, there are multiple different kinds of jewelry quality for different kind of modifiers. Each type of quality multiplies all associated mods on the item. For example, an amulet with 20% resistance quality has all of its resistance-granting modifiers multiplied by 1.2. Jewelry quality also increases the likelihood that new mods added to the item will be of the same mod group as the quality, similar to fossils. Every time a new mod is rolled on quality jewelry, a small amount of the quality is consumed. A jewelry item can only have one type of quality at a time.

    • Catalyst types known so far:

     

     

    Game Mechanics Changes

    • Ranged attack totems are being renamed ballistas. They will have a limit of 3 by default instead of the 1 that other totems have, and much faster placement speed than other totems. They will still be considered totems.

    • Chill and shock (and likely also stun) will be getting buffed in currently unspecified ways.

    • Bow damage at early levels has been improved. Unknown whether this is applied to bow skills, bows themselves, or both.

     

     

    Passive Tree Changes

    • Many bow-related nodes and ascendancies will doubtless be receiving changes.

    • New ballista-related passives will be added.

     

     

    New Skill & Support Gems

     

     

     

    Reworked/Updated Skill & Support Gems

     

     

     

    Plus Support Gems (10/~35)

     

     

    New (4/16) & Updated Unique Items

     

    • No known unique item updates yet.

     

     

    New Divination Cards (6/14)

     

     

    Release Schedule (Pacific Time)

    • Teasers every NZ weekday from now until launch (and weekends too if we're lucky)

    • Sunday, December 8: Metamorph League challenge rewards revealed

    • Monday, December 9: Blight League ends, 3.9 Balance Manifesto

    • Tuesday, December 10: 3.9.0 Patch Notes, Passive Tree and Item Filter Information

    • Wednesday, December 11: Complete new/updated skill gem numbers

    • Thursday, December 12: Patching timeline and (probably) torrent

    I had a lot of fun making my last ms paint build so here's another for 3.9

    Posted: 24 Nov 2019 04:40 AM PST

    As of 3.9, "Still sane, exile?" is now a threat.

    Posted: 24 Nov 2019 08:26 AM PST

    Considering what Zana did to the last group of exiles she judged to have gone mad, her formerly purely well-wishing line is now also an implied threat to the player character. Guess she's reminding us who's actually in charge :P

    Map stash tab in 3.9 with fully upgraded atlas?

    Posted: 24 Nov 2019 05:20 AM PST

    We'll have about 50 different T14, T15 and T16 maps, and we'll have to scroll to find a map we want. I dread using it in advance.

    So zana wants us to help her defeat the exiles

    Posted: 24 Nov 2019 05:39 AM PST

    Basically Zana wants some exiles to help her defeat the other exiles that helped her before, and went mad because of it...

    Why does this sound like a bad idea?...

    If it wasn't for oneshots no one would ever die in this game. *Defenses* aren't the problem, *life recovery* is.

    Posted: 24 Nov 2019 07:15 AM PST

    I'm pretty much just reposting the point that another post made earlier in the week, as a response to the front page thread asking for better defenses.

    Better defenses are not what this game needs. Players are already so hard to kill that GGG has to use one-shot mechanics, otherwise, there would be no way.

    Taking damage in this game is not punishing. As long as the damage isn't immediately lethal it doesn't matter. That's because players recover their whole life in less than a second.

    In order to have a Path of Exile without unfair one-shots, we would all have to agree on nerfing the hell out of flasks or completely reworking them, life leech, life gain on hit, MoM shenanigans, etc.

    If we buff defenses, that'll just mean GGG will need to put even more ridiculous damage spikes in the game to kill us.

    Nerf life recovery methods so we can take out unfair one-shots. That's all.

    Six-linking IRL at ExileCon (Zana cosplay with socketing simulator)

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 05:47 PM PST

    Six-linking IRL at ExileCon (Zana cosplay with socketing simulator)

    https://preview.redd.it/t24f5nz79k041.jpg?width=495&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c988c9354f082add0fcba19d739ab5efce1c6d93

    Hi all,

    Here are some pictures, video, and info for my Arduino socketing simulator which I incorporated into costume (male Zana - go through the map device a few too many times and eventually there's a mishap...).

    Finishing the costume in the Airbnb: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Tfjgd2ncUHunNSSs8

    Strandtest video (to check wiring): https://photos.app.goo.gl/nAq2nqw4rRcQnNkk9

    Testing simulator code (and showing 6-link @ 6:25): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0u-sDQeGGNQ

    I think most of the streamers got to try it out, but here are the ones I have videos of. If you have photos/videos of others (or better video), let me know:

    Raiz: https://photos.app.goo.gl/f17qnonVvH12Ra978

    Nugi: https://photos.app.goo.gl/qDLzbvsud25AQYbj8

    Tarke (while busy with his meet and greet): https://photos.app.goo.gl/JzhRHfwGrmqhG7Ye9

    David Brevik: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ZKPDbW2hVvr4hJ4y7

    Quin69: https://photos.app.goo.gl/G8EKyYzrwCATdaXa6

    A link to my full album with more pictures can be found in Envatilea's cosplay photos post here:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/e0lxkn/exilecon_cosplay_photos/f8g9yoo?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x

    Here is the TinkerCAD simulation of my simulation (yo dawg, I herd u like simulations...):

    https://www.tinkercad.com/things/5pZkgxBY8Te

    Pastebin of the code I programmed into the Trinket: https://pastebin.com/jAfGhudA

    The code is messy so I may try to improve it. I also think the random seed (using analogRead) may not have been working correctly on reset, and it was powering off after a couple minutes so I may have had a short somewhere in the costume, so there's a bit of debugging I hope to do at some point. I also might add more functionality such as holding a button for 3 seconds to do continuous presses, and holding for 5 seconds to auto 6-socket, 6-link, or change color base.

    The components for the socketing simulator are:

    Arduino Trinket 5V ( https://www.adafruit.com/product/1501 )

    16x NeoPixel v2 ( https://www.adafruit.com/product/1559 )

    3x tactile switches

    1x USB battery pack

    1x 390 ohm resistor

    1x 1000uF 16V capacitor

    1x USB to micro USB cable

    1x small breadboard

    conductive thread and wires for connections, and hot glue to keep NeoPixels and thread from shorting on the metal buttons

    Secret fishing achievement

    Posted: 24 Nov 2019 12:02 PM PST

    As most of us know there is an extra secret fishing achievement each league, has anyone figured it out for blight yet? I posted this before but it got deleted very quickly by a Mod.

    If someone could tell me how to do it please PM me. 3.7 was to catch a glowing roacarp that was a bitch in itself so i hope this league isn't as difficult. Also what is the reward please?

    Thanks

    [3d Art] Halls of Oriath

    Hey all. Been a little while since the last post. I started working on this realtime/UE4 environment earlier this year & decided this month was a good time to finish it. Was exciting to see updates surrounding exilecon... PoE2 and new content going to be great. =}

    Modeled in 3ds Max and Zbrush, textures authored in Substance Designer (except the stained glass, which were taken from the concepts), cloth sim in Houdini, flames in embergen, shader/rendering/lighting in UE4. Hope you all enjoy <3

    Going to be linking some video clips on that page soon as well. Keep an eye out for tonight or tomorrow.

    a bad idea for a new currency to Poe

    Posted: 24 Nov 2019 12:03 PM PST

    i just came up with this stupid idea but i still want to share it and make your IQ as low as mine.

    Corrupted Vaal Mirror: corrups the item on use and creates another corrupted duplicate

    1 or both items can break (reroll stats or reduce rarity level from unique to rare)

    may grant nothing

    can be used on strongboxes (cannot be used on mirrored strongboxes)

    chance to empower one or both items

    chance to empower one item and break the other

    if you have any ideas post them here. even if you think theyre bad we might think they sound cool so dont be shy and write whatever you want.

    Melee Build - Absolut Beginner

    Posted: 24 Nov 2019 09:11 AM PST

    Hello everyone !

    I just started POE, and ... what a game! I come from D3 (several hundred hours on it), so I know a little bit about how hack & slash works. I just discovered on the late POE, and my only regret is not to have started earlier.

    I randomly built a Slayer to discover the game, but I kept deing continuously. I then made a Juggernaut following a guide (molten strike), and that was a bit better; especially because I'm starting to understand the POE's mechanics. I just learned that a new season would begin, and I would like to create a new character on which play seriously from here to the release of the 4.0.

    Could you advise me a simple and cheap build for beginners, preferably for a melee class? I mean, all I have to know about this build, items filter, gems, gear, nods, etc.

    Thank you in advance

    Hi, im new to POE and im trying to follow a guide because im a bit lost and overwhelmed about all the skills, passives, etc.

    When i paste the pastebin code into the import section it says the "code is valid" but when i press the import button i get this error.

    http://prntscr.com/q1bdho

    I have tried to download the program again, different build links but i always get the same error.

    Community 'Endless' Delve Race Reminder

    Posted: 23 Nov 2019 07:50 PM PST

    This Sunday at 6pm GMT I will be 'hosting' an endless delve race. It is open to anyone, it is not a private league or anything. There is, however, some setup you need to do beforehand, so don't dally if you're interested in participating. No need to hit me with anything pre-race, just shoot me a screencap of your final depth so I can put together a leaderboard at the end (since there is no good way to track participants at this juncture).

    Learn more here

    Countdown

    It's based off of the old endless ledge races, except its in delve. I think for format is kind of fun and I'm definitely looking for feedback on how people like the format and what changes I could make for a future version.
