Now that we've announced a new date of [url=https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3584015]Early Access for Path of Exile 2[/url], we would like to give an update on the timeline for our next Path of Exile 1 expansion. [h3]3.26 Expansion Timeline[/h3] Path of Exile 1 has received two new expansions this year with the ongoing Settlers of Kalguur being one of the most successful leagues ever. Despite the delay, launching Path of Exile 2 in Early Access this year is a very important milestone for us and we've been working very hard to make it happen. After many days of internal discussions, we made the decision to not launch the 3.26 expansion for Path of Exile 1 this year. We’re looking to announce this new league in early 2025 (think late January) however we have to remain flexible with this window as releasing an entirely new project can come with challenges that we cannot predict. This means that the Settlers league will be extended to early 2025. [h3]Join the Settlers of Kalguur event on November 7th PST[/h3] To brighten up the wait, on November 7th PST we're launching a fresh version of the Settlers of Kalguur with a little twist, that would run in parallel with the ongoing Settlers League. By participating in this event you'll be able to play the Settlers league, in either Hardcore SSF or Standard, with a fresh economy and a ladder reset. By reaching level 50 in any version of the event you will earn one guaranteed [url=https://www.pathofexile.com/shop/item/MysteryPackSettlersBox]Settlers Mystery box[/url] per account. The Settlers challenges are also available in the event, so if you were planning to complete them, you will be able to do so. In the event, monsters in every area are affected by a pool of mods which you will be able to manipulate upon entering that area, just like in Necropolis league. Unlike Necropolis league though, these mods will only be rewarding, like in this example: [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//5193306/c0fa39100df6ca543f037f57a4bee9ad3607f4b9.png[/img] The mods are the same for all players and rotate once per hour in every area, including maps.

[b]Can I play my existing character?[/b] No, you'll need to make a new character. [b]Will Necropolis crafting mechanics be available in the event?[/b] No, only the Lantern that you use to manipulate mods in the area will be available. The Necropolis area as well as Undertaker Arimor are not a part of this event. [b]How do I join the event?[/b] At the character selection screen, there's a panel below your characters which will show the event available. You can join the event by clicking 'join'. This option becomes available 30 minutes before the event is set to begin. Your character won't be able to move until the event starts. [b]Can I make Private League versions of this event?[/b] No. [b]When will I receive a Mystery Box?[/b] The Settlers Mystery Box will be awarded automatically upon reaching level 50 in the event. [b]What happens if I already have all of the microtransactions from the Settlers Mystery Box?[/b] If you already own the entire Settlers Mystery Box series, you'll instead be awarded with two Polaris Mystery Boxes.
