Archnemesis League was a challenge league. It launched on February 4, 2022 as part of Path of Exile: Siege of the Atlas in version 3.17.0. The league ended on May 10, 2022.[1]
League Mechanic
In this league, players can build their own rare boss fights by applying new Archnemesis modifiers to petrified monsters, found throughout every area. These modifiers add dangerous behaviours to their targets but also imbue them with valuable rewards.
Itemised modifiers drop from regular magic and rare monsters in each area starting from The Coast. Areas spawn 4 or more petrified monsters, which are more than needed. These monsters can be imbued with up to 4 Archnemesis modifiers. Each subsequent Archnemesis modified within an area keeps all of the previous modifiers applied, allowing players to build some extremely difficult and rewarding encounters. Modifiers can be combined in special recipes to create more powerful modifiers. There are 63 Archnemesis mods, which 36 of them requires to be created from recipes.
