Content Update 3.14.0 -- Path of Exile: Ultimatum

The Ultimatum Challenge League

• Challenge leagues are a great opportunity for a fresh start in a new economy. All of your old characters and items are still present in the Standard and Hardcore leagues, but you're encouraged to join the new leagues, complete challenges and demonstrate your mastery of Path of Exile!
• In the Ultimatum Challenge League, you'll test your skills in the trials of Chaos. In every area, you'll encounter The Trialmaster who will present you with a reward, objective and choice of three modifiers that add extra challenge to the encounter.
• If you're successful, you must then choose between accepting the reward you've earned or attempting additional trials with increased difficulty in the hopes of earning additional rewards. Choose wisely, because if you fail, you'll lose all the rewards you've earned so far. Each encounter with the Trialmaster provides a series of trials with increasing difficulty.
• In maps, you'll occasionally find Inscribed Ultimatums which can be placed in the map device to transport you to the Trialmaster's domain. Each Inscribed Ultimatum specifies an offering that you must bring with you, a reward you can earn and an assortment of Ultimatum difficulty modifiers. If you're able to complete the Trial, you'll earn the specified reward. However, if you fail, you'll forfeit the offering you brought with you.
• With 3.14.0, there are Standard, Hardcore and Solo Self-Found variations of the Ultimatum challenge league available. They have the same core mechanics and items. You can create private league versions of these leagues, with mods that make the game harder.
• The new challenge leagues include a set of 40 new challenges. When you complete 12 challenges, you will receive the Ultimatum Helmet. When you reach 24 challenges, you will receive the Ultimatum Pet. At 36 challenges completed you'll receive the Ultimatum Portal Effect. These microtransactions are only obtainable in this league.
• From the 19th challenge onwards and for every third challenge after that, you will receive pieces of the Ultimatum Totem Pole decoration to display in your hideout. The Totem Pole permanently showcases how many of the Ultimatum challenges you completed during the league.

Major New Content and Features

• Added a new Strength/Intelligence Skill Gem - Reap: A bloody scythe swipes across a selected area, applying a physical damage over time debuff in addition to hitting enemies with physical damage. If enemies survive, you gain a blood charge, which raises both the damage and cost of the skill.
• Added a new Strength/Intelligence Skill Gem - Exsanguinate: Release several tendrils of blood, targeting enemies in a narrow angle in front of you. The beams deal physical damage and inflict a physical damage over time debuff to enemies, which can stack up to 3 times. Effects which allow skills to chain can be applied to these tendrils.
• Added a new Strength Skill Gem - Petrified Blood: Apply a buff that protects the lower half of your life, preventing some of the immediate life loss when damaged by hits and applying the loss over time instead. Your life cannot be raised above low life other than by flasks, and while above low life, skills will cost life as well as mana.
• Added a new Strength/Intelligence Skill Gem - Corrupting Fever: Draw out your own blood to power a buff for a duration, letting this skill inflict the Corrupting Blood debuff on enemies you hit, dealing physical damage over time for a short secondary duration. The buff's duration will be refreshed if you spend enough life before it expires.
• Added a new Strength Support Gem - Bloodthirst: Supports attack skills, causing them to deal added physical damage with weapons equal to 2% of your maximum life while on low life.
• Added a new Strength/Intelligence Support Gem - Cruelty: Supports skills that hit enemies, causing them to deal more damage with hits. You also gain a Cruelty buff, which makes all supported skills deal up to 50% more damage over time, based on the amount of damage of the initial hit.
• Blood Magic Support has been removed. Two new Support gems have been added in its place.
• Added a new Strength Support Gem - Arrogance: Supports any skill with a reservation. Skills reserve life instead of mana and have increased aura effect. The reservation multiplier decreases as the gem level increases. Any existing Blood Magic Support Gems will be converted to Arrogance Support Gems.
• Added a new Strength Support Gem - Lifetap: Supports any skill. Skills cost life instead of mana. If you've spent a certain amount of life, you will gain a Lifetap buff which causes supported skills to deal more damage.
• Added 13 new Unique Items.
• Added 14 new Divination Cards, designed by our supporters.
• Added Ritual to the core game, rebalanced around the lower rate of encountering Ritual gameplay. Please read the Ritual Changes section for more information.
• Introduced the Vaal Reliquary Key, which can be found as an extremely rare drop throughout the game. When consumed in the Map Device, it grants you access to an ancient vault with a chest that drops a special foil version of a Vaal-themed unique item. Uniques dropped in this way have equal weighting. This is the rarest Reliquary Key yet.
• Introduced the Veiled Chaos Orb, a currency item that reforges rare items in a similar way to a regular Chaos Orb, but guarantees the result will have a random veiled modifier. This item can be obtained from Betrayal encounters or found as a rare drop throughout the game.
• Added six new Vendor recipes.
• Added five new equipment base types, available in the Atlas.

Minor New Content and Features

• Added various new league rewards such as Catalysts, Incubators and Scarabs. Please read the Other League Changes section for more information.
• Added five new Sextant modifiers which will cause maps in the associated Atlas region to contain Blight, Delirium, Harvest, Heist or Ritual encounters.
• Continued to incrementally improve the sound, art, effects and environments.

Atlas and Map Changes

• Conquerors of the Atlas encounters can now be accessed through a map item. When you have a Conqueror's Citadel ready to go, speaking to Zana will open the Map Device interface with a map containing the Conqueror's Citadel already placed in the first slot. Currency can be applied to these maps in the same way as a regular map, and adding fragments or scarabs alongside the map will enhance the map further. Item Quantity will only increase the amount of rewards dropped by the Conqueror by 20% of its total value.
• The Maven will now only Witness encounters in The Uncharted Realms Atlas region for the player that created the encounter.
• Awakening Bonus Objectives no longer provide additional chance to receive an Atlas Mission when completing a Map.
• Reduced the chance for Map Areas to contain Abyss, Ambush, Blight, Breach, Domination, Essence, Heist, Legion, Metamorph and Torment encounters by 20%. The chance to encounter a Zana mission containing any of these mechanics has also been lowered by the same amount.
• Reduced the chance for Map Areas to contain a Delirium Mirror by approximately 20%. The chance to encounter a Zana mission containing a Delirium encounter has also been lowered by the same amount.
• Zana is now half as likely to offer a unique Synthesis Map when offering missions.

Ritual Changes

• Ritual Altars can now be found once you reach maps. Each map has a 8% base chance to contain Ritual Altars. Deferred items will reappear at later Areas at a higher rate to account for these changes.
• Ritual Splinters will no longer be offered as rewards from Ritual encounters in maps that have been opened with a Blood-filled Vessel.
• Added four Ritual Atlas passive nodes to the Haewark Hamlet Atlas region, which grant various bonuses to Ritual encounters. Please read the Atlas Passive Balance section for more information.
• Added three Ritual Watchstone modifiers, which grant various bonuses to Ritual encounters.

Harvest Changes

• Unfortunately the version of Harvest that was active during the Ritual league was far too rewarding. Various adjustments have been made to Harvest crafting, and the chance to encounter a portal to The Sacred Grove has been increased. We have published a development manifesto that goes into more detail about the changes and the reasoning behind them.
• Increased the chance for Map Areas to contain The Sacred Grove by 60%. The chance to encounter a Zana mission requiring you to complete a Harvest encounter has also been increased by the same amount.
• The Sacred Grove now contains a minimum of three pairs of plots that can be harvested from.
• The Heart of the Grove encounter will no longer appear in place of a normal Harvest encounter. Instead, it can now be accessed through a Sacred Blossom map fragment that sometimes drops from Tier 4 Harvest bosses.
• Completing the Heart of the Grove encounter for the first time now unlocks 5 extra Horticrafting Station crafting slots, allowing you to store up to a maximum of 15 crafting options.
• Crafts are no longer guaranteed from seeds. Now, seeds of Tiers 1, 2 and 3 each have a chance to provide a craft, with Tier 4 seeds still guaranteeing a craft. Please note that the number of Tier 2 and 3 seeds encountered in Harvest Plots has remained unchanged, so the encounters will remain as challenging as they were before.
• Some crafts that had overly-deterministic behaviour have been removed. These include most Annulment-type crafts (crafts that removed a modifier of a specific type), and all type-specific Divine crafts (crafts that rerolled the value of specific modifiers).
• Type-specific Exalted crafts (crafts that augmented modifiers of specific types to items) can now only be applied to non-influenced items. This does not apply to the existing modifier which applies an Influenced modifier to an already Influenced item.
• Crafts that added random Atlas Influences to certain types of non-Influenced items have been removed. In their place, crafts that randomise the existing Influence on an item while also reforging it with new modifiers have been added.
• Rebalanced the weightings of seeds so that you're seeing type-specific crafts at a more equal rate (for example Cold, Fire and Lightning). The weightings of crafts have also been rebalanced so that the more powerful crafts such as the Exalted-type crafts are now rarer. Weaker crafts such as "Set an item to three sockets" have also been removed, making the higher tier versions of these crafts more common.

Other League Changes

• We have rebalanced league-specific rewards that were provided far more readily through other content compared to the original league content. Some rewards will now be exclusive to their respective league, or much rarer from other types of content (for example, Stygian Vises are now almost exclusively available as rewards from Abyssal Depths encounters and Delirium Orbs are now exclusive to Delirium encounters).

• You can now find Abyss Scarabs from various sources. Each Scarab guarantees an Abyss encounter in an Area, with higher-tier Scarabs containing additional Abyss encounters, an additional Abyssal Jewel from Abyssal Troves, or increased chance for an Abyss in an Area to lead to an Abyssal Depths encounter.
• Rare Abyss Jewels that drop from Abyssal Troves now use the well-rolled modifier system.
• Added several new Abyss Jewel modifiers. Various existing Abyss Jewel modifiers have also been updated. Please read the Abyss Jewel Balance section for more information.

• Blighted Maps can now be Corrupted with outcomes similar to regular Maps. Chests in these maps have a chance to drop Tainted Oils, which can be used to anoint Corrupted items.
• Blighted Maps now apply the Map's Item Quantity Modifier to the Blight Chest count at 20% of the total value.
• Various Oil modifiers that affect Maps have been updated. Please read the Oil Changes section for more information.
• You can now find Blight Scarabs from various sources. Each Scarab guarantees a Blight encounter in an Area, with higher-tier Scarabs guaranteeing an additional Blight Boss, a 50% chance for Blight Chests to contain an additional Reward, or Blight Lanes to contain an additional Reward Chest.

• Modifiers that are unveiled through Jun are now more powerful than before. Previously, when an item was unveiled, the veiled modifier added to the item would be equal to the highest tier modifier available on the Crafting Bench. Now, the modifier being unveiled no longer counts as a crafted modifier and will be stronger than any craftable veiled modifier.
• You will still obtain progress towards unlocking the craftable versions of these veiled modifiers, however progress towards unlocking craftable versions of these modifiers is now slightly faster and many crafts have had their worst tier removed.
• The weighting of Veiled modifiers has been rebalanced in a way that makes modifiers exclusive to one or two types of equipment more common, while modifiers that can appear on a wider range of equipment types are rarer.
• We have improved the Betrayal reward system so that slaying the Mastermind is more worthwhile. Now, if the Mastermind is slain, her Immortal Syndicate Members drop their rewards at one tier higher than their current tier. This change introduces a fourth tier of reward from each member, and gives more reason to use a larger variety of Syndicate targets and safehouse leaders. Some of the best existing rewards have been moved to the fourth tier. We've also improved some of the less-interesting or less-valuable rewards.
• Safehouse leaders no longer lose ranks when they're interrogated for Mastermind Intelligence.
• Betrayal targets are now more likely to drop veiled items with their signature modifiers.
• Polished and Gilded Scarabs can now be obtained as a rare drop when Bargaining during a Betrayal encounter.
• Scarabs can no longer be obtained from Bargaining in Areas under level 68.
• Various craftable Veiled modifiers have been rebalanced. Please read the Crafted Veiled Modifier Balance section for more information.

• Added 10 new Beastcrafting recipes.
• Splitting an item through Beastcrafting now applies a Split modifier to both items, preventing further splitting.
• Party members that are not the map creator are now required to be within a 250 unit radius (roughly two screens) of a captured beast in order for it to be added to their Menagerie.

• Blessings of Esh, Tul, Xoph, Uul-Netol and Chayula can now be used to upgrade an associated Breachstone to a higher tier version.

• Added and rebalanced various Cluster Jewel notables. Please read the Cluster Jewel Balance section for more information.
• The Quantity and Rarity bonus applied to monsters from Delirium encounters has been lowered as is now more consistent across Monster rarities. Previously, Monsters of Normal rarity had a disproportionately larger amount of Quantity and Rarity being applied to them compared to Monsters of higher rarities.

• Delve has been rebalanced in a way that makes better rewards appear earlier and more frequently at shallow depths. Very deep depths no longer provide such an exponential increase to the rate of encountering high-tier rewards.
• Fractured Fossils now apply a Split modifier to both items, preventing further duplication. As a result, Fractured Fossils can no longer be applied to items that cannot be Split, such as Synthesised, Enchanted, Fractured or Influenced items.

• Various Essence outcomes have been rebalanced. Please read the Essence Balance section for more information.

• The amount of experience required to level up a Heist Rogue has been reduced by 20% per level.

• Alva can now convert your completed and ready-to-run Temple of Atzoatl into an tradeable object that can be consumed in the Map Device. You will need access to the Map Device to use this convert function.
• We have made a lot of changes to the Temple of Atzoatl. As you may know, specific rooms in the Temple of Atzoatl can drop unique Incursion items that can later be upgraded - many of these unique items have been improved (please read the Incursion Uniques Changes section for more information).
• Previously, the temple's boss, the Omnitect, dropped random rare items with special Incursion modifiers on them. Now, it also drops rare items with Incursion modifiers based around the themes of the rooms your temple contains, and has a higher chance to drop Vials related to that room. Having higher tier rooms also causes more rare items to drop.
• Specific rooms now add specific Monster packs to the temple and Temple modifiers have been improved which results in more monster density, challenge and reward. Temple modifiers have been improved so that if your temple has more higher-tier rooms, then it's comparable to a good map. We have also performed a modernisation pass on room rewards so that they're competitive with newer leagues.
• The Explosives Rooms now contain some basic chests that can be opened with Flashpowder Kegs if you don't need them for opening a path elsewhere in the temple.
• The Shrine of Empowerment room in the Temple of Atzoatl now randomly empowers one connected room that is tier 2 or below and upgrades it by one tier. The Sanctum of Unity room now randomly empowers two connected rooms that are tier 2 or below and upgrades them by one tier each.
• The Table of Sacrifice in the Hall of Offerings room now allows you to sacrifice a unique item for another random unique of the same item class.
• The "Monsters Killed" progress bar in Temporal Incursions has been updated slightly, to make it easier to see if you have killed all of the Monsters in the Incursion.

• Added three new Incubators related to Blight, Delirium and Metamorph.
• Abyssal Incubators can now drop Abyss Scarabs.
• Cartographer's Incubators can now drop Shaper and Elder-influenced maps, as well as maps with Delirium Orbs applied to them.
• Decadent Incubators can no longer drop Perandus league-exclusive unique items and now drops Scarabs more often.
• Enchanted Incubators can now drop items with an enchantment from the Eternal Labyrinth.
• Fragmented Incubators can now drop Offerings to the Goddess and can no longer drop Pale Court Key fragments.
• Foreboding Incubators can now drop Harbinger Scarabs. Ancient Orbs can now only be dropped from Foreboding Incubators of level 68 or higher.
• The item drop pool for the Mysterious Incubator has been updated to include all of the new rewards.

• Added an Accelerating Catalyst, which adds quality that enhances Speed modifiers on a Ring, Amulet or Belt.
• Added a Noxious Catalyst, which adds quality that enhances Physical and Chaos Damage modifiers on a Ring, Amulet or Belt.
• Added an Unstable Catalyst, which adds quality that enhances Critical modifiers on a Ring, Amulet or Belt.
• Metamorphs created in Tane's Laboratory now deal 10% more damage and have 80% more health.

• Sources of Perandus coins have had their coin counts normalised. The selection of items sold by Cadiro has been modernised and their costs have been adjusted accordingly.
• Vendors will no longer offer any scroll fragments in exchange for Perandus Coins.

• Fractured items no longer have a visual effect applied to them.

• Talismans no longer drop using the well-rolled modifier system.

Labyrinth Changes

• Consuming an Offering to the Goddess in the Map Device now opens portals to a random Trial of Ascendancy for the Eternal Labyrinth. Trials opened in this way will not award an Offering to the Goddess upon completion.
• Interacting with the Divine Font will now display a window with the available enchantments. For example, after completing the Eternal Labyrinth, a window will be displayed where you will have the option to pick one of three Helmet enchantments, or an enchantment for your Boots or Gloves.
• The Daily Labyrinth Ladder has been retired. The Labyrinth unique Jewels that were previously obtainable by completing the Labyrinth the fastest in a certain difficulty can now be obtained as rare rewards from Izaro's Treasure Chests in the Eternal and Enriched Eternal Labyrinth.

Character Balance

• The Low threshold for Life, Mana and Energy Shield is now 50% or below (previously below 35%). This means that a single 50% reservation will now put you into a Low state. Light radius has been adjusted accordingly.
• The costs and reservations system for skills has been extensively reworked to add new options. Previously, all skills had either a Mana cost or a Mana reservation (with a limited number of effects allowing you to spend different resources instead of Mana). Now, skills can have costs of Mana, Life, Energy Shield, and/or less common resources such as Rage. Most modifiers that previously affected "Mana costs" now just affect "costs", and will thus apply to all cost values. Modifiers which still specifically refer to "Mana costs" will only modify the amount of Mana a skill costs, not other cost values. Similarly, there are now some modifiers that specifically modify only Life costs. Vaal Skills requiring Souls to use is not a cost, and thus modifiers to costs will not apply to them - this has technically always been the case, but because that distinction did not previously matter, a couple of modifiers referred to this as a cost. Those descriptions have been corrected. Similarly, the base reservation of a skill can now be an amount of Mana or Life, or both (other resources may become Reservable in future), and most modifiers to "Mana reservation" now just affect "reservation" without restriction to either resource. Several mechanics have been adjusted to account for these changes; for example the changes to Blood Magic Support replace Mana costs and reservations with Life costs and reservations, and these changes will now be reflected in the new skill popups.
• Percentage reservations are now stored with more precision internally, allowing them to have up to two decimal places in the percentage value, however the total amount of resources reserved must still be a whole number. This prevents some cases where small reductions in reservation values would have no effect due to rounding. As an example, if a skill reserves 50% of Mana, a modifier granting "1% reduced reservation" will now change the reservation to 49.5% Mana, where previously it would still be 50% due to the change not affecting the percentage by a whole number. However, it is still not possible to reserve less than 1 of something, so for a player with 100 Mana, that 49.5% reservation will still reserve 50 of it. For a player with 1000 Mana, 495 would be reserved.
• Reserving Mana or Life no longer involves spending anything - so you don't need any current Mana to turn on an Aura, you just need enough of your Mana orb to be unreserved that the Aura's reservation will fit. However, while previously reservations were mutually exclusive with costs, this is no longer the case and it's possible for a skill to have both a reservation and a cost, in which case the cost will still require spending (but using a reservation skill a second time to 'turn it off' does not require paying the cost again). The most notable case of this is Mine skills - these all have costs as well as reservations, which must both be satisfied to use the skill, and can each be modified separately. This also means that mechanics that add to the costs of skills, such as the Voidbringer unique gloves, will now affect skills with reservations, which previously escaped this due to being unable to have both. Likewise, Support gems that add a Mana reservation to skills, such as Blasphemy, no longer inherently remove the cost as part of that process.
• The stats which limit the total rate of recovery per second from leech have been changed. Previously these limited any recovery based on what kind of leech it came from, but they now limit recovery from any leech based on what kind of recovery it is. This has no effect except in cases where one kind of leech applies a different kind of recovery. For example, the keystone Immortal Ambition makes life leech cause energy shield recovery instead of life recovery. Previously this was limited by 'Maximum total Recovery per second from Life Leech'. That recovery will now be limited by 'Maximum total Energy Shield Recovery from Leech'.
• Modifiers that allow your Hexes to affect Hexproof Enemies (such as the Cospri's Will unique Body Armour) no longer allow your Hexes to affect yourself while you have Hexproof (as you are not your own Enemy).
• The Corrupted Blood debuff has been updated. It now has a maximum stack size of 10 and is now consistently treated as being completely separate from Bleeding. Various Bleeding-specific modifiers that may have previously applied to Corrupted Blood will no longer apply. Modifiers that affect both Bleeding and Corrupted Blood such as the "of Staunching" modifier on Flasks have had their descriptions updated to reflect this change. Monsters that apply Corrupted Blood have been balanced around these changes accordingly. Corrupted Blood applied by Monster modifiers now have different values, and these values are now calculated based on the Monster's level rather than its main hand damage, so some effects which raised Monster attack damage no longer scale Corrupted Blood in unintuitive ways.
• Call of Steel no longer has a cooldown (previously 0.2 seconds).
• Increased Character Size is now capped at 100%.

Skill Balance

• Now grants 16 to 23 additional Fire Damage to Spells at gem level 1 (previously 15 to 21) and 109 to 155 additional Fire Damage to Spells at gem level 20 (previously 99 to 140). This makes the additional Fire Damage apply to Attacks and Spells by the same amount.

• The "Allies Cannot Die" aura has been removed. To replace this, a new "Benevolent Guardian" Nemesis modifier has been added which causes the Monster with this modifier to apply an Immunity buff to nearby allies for a short duration. If the original Monster is slain, affected allies lose the Immunity buff. Other Monsters that have this Nemesis modifier cannot be given the Immunity buff.
• Rare monsters dominated by Sirus have had their Attack, Cast Speed and Movement Speed lowered.
• Tzteosh, Hungering Flame no longer uses his Ultimate Molten Strike skill.
• The Bull Thorns skill used by Lieutenant of Rage in The Labyrinth and the Crusher of Gladiators in the Racecourse Map has been visually updated and no longer has Damage Reflection.
• The Vaal Pyramid and Arcade Map bosses have had their health increased to bring them closer into line with other Map bosses.
