Contract

From Path of Exile Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Contracts are an item class used to perform Heists. They can be taken to Adiyah, the Wayfinder at The Rogue Harbour to open a portal to the contract area.

Contracts can be found as random drops, and can also be purchased from Whakano, the Barber in The Rogue Harbour. Smuggler's Caches randomly found in zones have an increased chance to drop unique Contracts, and are the only way to obtain Quest Contracts.

Contracts have an Area Level, which determines the monster level (and thus the difficulty of the monsters in the area) and item level of items. Contracts purchased from Whakano cannot exceed area level 67. Contracts above area level 67 are separated into four tiers: Low-Tier (68-72), Mid-Tier (73-77), High-Tier (78-82), and Top-Tier (83-84). Top-tier contracts can drop special items such as influenced items.

Similar to chests, item rarity and item quantity stats from equipped items have no effect on items dropped from Heist chests. Only modifiers on Thief's TrinketThief's TrinketCorrupteds and Brooches have an effect on Heist chests. See Optimal Gear for more info.

Each (non-unique) contract can have up to 3 prefixes and 3 suffixes, like other items. Currency related to rarity also works the same, for example, an Orb of AlchemyOrb of AlchemyStack Size: 20Upgrades a normal item to a rare itemRight click this item then left click a normal item to apply it. will turn a normal contract into a rare. Modifiers for contracts change the properties of the area when one is in that contract, thereby making it more difficult, but resulting in increased item quantity and rarity for all drops inside that contract. Modifiers on contracts can additionally grant Alert Level Reduction, Time Before Lockdown, and Maximum Alive Reinforcements.

Locations

There are 4 different sets of monsters that appear across the heist locations. The location is mentioned in the name of the heist contract, eg.Contract: TunnelsContract: TunnelsGive this Contract to Adiyah in the Rogue Harbour to embark on the Heist. indicates that the heist will take place in the Tunnels location.

    • Tibbs can open 4 chests after lockdown, Niles can open 2.
  • Completing a Heist generates 3 additional Reveals
    Heist Chests have 25% chance to contain nothing
