Betrayal league was a challenge league. It launched on December 7, 2018 as part of Path of Exile: Betrayal in version 3.5.0.[1]
In this league, the players assist Jun Ortoi on her mission to uncover and take down a mysterious group known as the Immortal Syndicate. Players can encounter a Syndicate member in a zone, along with their allies - or enemies. Once defeated, the member can be interrogated, killed, bribed, or coerced to betray other members. This process helps gather intelligence on the Syndicate, with the ultimate goal of sabotaging its divisions and defeating the Syndicate leader. Different rewards can be obtained based on who was placed in charge of a division, rank of members, and connections between other members. Syndicate members drop Veiled items which contain a mystery affix that can be converted into one of three different modifiers, which can be leveled up into stronger versions.
All characters and stashes will be moved to Standard league and Hardcore league respectively when the leagues end. Characters that die in the Hardcore Betrayal league are immediately moved to the permanent Standard league.
League mechanic
Main page: Immortal Syndicate
The Betrayal league mechanic has the player assist Jun Ortoi in her vendetta against the Immortal Syndicate. On most maps, Syndicate events appear, which allow players to defeat and capture one or more Syndicate members. They can then be either interrogated or bargained with, which allows the player to gradually gather intelligence about the Syndicate's network and influence its composition. As soon as enough intelligence is gathered, the player and Jun can raid a Syndicate safehouse for valuable loot.
Syndicate members can drop items with veiled modifiers, which can be unveiled by Jun.
Members
The Immortal Syndicate consists of the Syndicate Mastermind and a roster consisting of up to 14 of 17 other members, who are encountered on maps if the Immortal Syndicate has spawned on the map. Players will encounter members at random.
