The Crucible 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 Crucible Challenge League, you'll learn about the ancient titans who once shaped the primordial surface of Wraeclast. If you're powerful enough, you will earn the ability to forge their power onto your weapons.

Crucible Forges are scattered throughout Wraeclast. When you find one, select one of your weapons and channel the power of the ancient titans to spawn a challenging encounter. The longer you channel for, the more the molten monsters merge together to form more fearsome foes. You're in control of the difficulty and reward of these encounters.

In an iconically Path of Exile way, your weapons can now be imbued with powerful Passive Skill Trees of their own. Encounters at Crucible Forges grant you experience that lets you uncover the tree on a weapon and gradually progress through its skills. You can only allocate one skill from each tier, so choose your path through each Crucible Passive Tree carefully. If you're lucky, you'll find certain skills that, when allocated, are worth valuable currency or unique items when sold to a vendor.

Crucible's endgame takes place in The Forge of the Titans, a dangerous area harbouring an ancient power: the ability to melt a weapon down, merging its Crucible Passive Tree with that of another weapon. This process produces unpredictable results, incorporating elements of each tree as well as random upgrades, downgrades and changes. Through careful use of the Forge, it's possible to craft some incredibly powerful skill trees on your weapons.

With 3.21.0, there are Standard, Hardcore, Solo Self-Found and Ruthless variations of the Crucible 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 Crucible challenge league includes a set of 40 new challenges, and 8 new challenges in Ruthless Crucible. There are microtransaction rewards for completing challenges that are only obtainable in this league. These rewards will be revealed in an upcoming news post.

League Revamps

In this expansion, we've targeted a couple of endgame leagues that have fallen behind other leagues on the Atlas Tree: Breach and Abyss.
The changes outlined below should ensure that you can play a wider variety of leagues in the endgame, both through being able to access them more easily and because Breach and Abyss now feel far more modern and competitive with other popular league content.

Breach

The pacing of Breach encounters has been improved. They now feel dense with monsters throughout the Breach, leaning more on the side of it feeling overwhelming towards the end. We've also reduced the duration of Breaches so that there is constant monster pressure and you can get on with your mapping sooner.

The number of Breach Splinters dropped are now affected by increases and reductions to item quantity.

The experience gained from killing Breach Monsters in your Maps has been reduced and the number of Breach Splinters dropped from Monsters has been rebalanced, as you're now encountering more of them.

The number of Breach Splinters dropped by Breach Bosses in your Map has been reduced.

Charged, Enriched and Pure Breachstones have been removed. Existing items will be converted to regular Breachstones upon logging in after the launch of 3.21.0.

Abyss

Abyssal Depths now always contain a Lich. Because the rate of encountering Abyssal Liches is unchanged, Abyssal Depths are rarer than before.

It is now possible for a Stygian Spire to spawn in the place of an Abyssal Trove at the end of an Abyss, which will drop all of the jewels and other items you would normally receive as well as a Stygian ViseStygian ViseHas 1 Abyssal Socket.

Abyssal Depths can now only appear in level 78 or above areas (previously 70 or above).

Abyssal Depths now always spawn at the fourth hole, if they were going to spawn at all, instead of immediately after a single hole.

Ulaman, Sovereign of the Well has had their life increased, and can now use their Cleave skill from further away. The speed of the projectiles from their spirit-spending ability has been reduced, though their damage has been increased. They now spawn more geysers, which have had both their damage and duration increased also.

Amanamu, Liege of the Lightless' has had their life increased, and is now more likely to use their Thrust attack, and Mortar Projectiles summoned during the fight now last longer. Amanamu's channelled projectile attack now deals more damage, though their turn speed when channelling this has been reduced. The health of Stygian Spires and Stygian Hearts spawned in this fight has been increased.

Stygian Spires no longer gain a reduced Damage Taken buff upon using their skills. Instead, they now spawn with a reduced Damage Taken buff which tapers off over 5 seconds, and their life has been increased. The thresholds they spawn minions has also been adjusted.

The Awakened Depths Atlas Notable Passive no longer causes Abyssal Depths in your Maps to have 100% increased chance to contain a Lich (as that would be silly), and now causes Abysses in your Maps to have 100% increased chance to lead to an Abyssal Depths (previously 50%). This is still a 50% chance in Ruthless.

The Lightless Legion Atlas Notable Passive has been renamed to Inspired Darkness. It no longer grants Monster Level, increased number of Magic and Rare Monsters, or increased Pack Size for Abyssal Depths in your Maps. Instead, it now provides "Stygian Spires in your Maps drop Items with +1 to Item Level".

The two small Atlas Passives prior to Inspired Darkness no longer grant "Abyssal Depths in your Maps have 15% increased Pack Size". Instead, they now provide "Abysses in your Maps that do not lead to an Abyssal Depths have 10% increased chance to lead to a Stygian Spire".

The two small Atlas Passives following Inspired Darkness no longer grant 10% increased Quantity of Items dropped in Abyssal Depths in your Maps. Instead, they now provide "Abysses in your maps have 5% increased chance to lead to an Abyssal Depths" and "Abysses in your Maps that do not lead to an Abyssal Depths have 5% increased chance to lead to a Stygian Spire".

We've also taken the opportunity to revisit Abyss Unique Items, and have made the following changes:

Passive Skill Tree Mastery Changes

Looking at the masteries Path of Exile's passive skill tree, we realised that a lot of the choices were rather bland and could be a lot more exciting.
We have reviewed each mastery one by one, and tried to come up with as many interesting stats as we could, ignoring what was currently available. Once we had a shortlist of high-quality stats, we added in the existing ones that used to be on each mastery and picked the six best. All of the leftover ones have been saved for later or used in other places like unique items.
This process was performed on approximately half of the masteries on the tree, initially targeting the ones that needed the attention the most. Previously, some masteries only had four options, so we have tried to increase as many as possible to six options.
We have also added new Stun and Recovery mastery types, to fill gaps we felt were missing:

Introduced a new Recovery Mastery, which replaces the Life Mastery in the Vampirism, Infused Flesh, and Hearty passive clusters.

Introduced a new Stun Mastery, which replaces the Attack Mastery in the Goliath passive cluster, the Life Mastery in the Unfaltering passive cluster, and is also found on in the new Trial of the Faith, Conjured Barrier and Perfectionist passive clusters.

We've compiled a list of the mastery types that have received changes in Path of Exile: Crucible, highlighting the new options. Below this list is a spoilered section containing the masteries that have been removed, for your reference.

Passive Skill Tree Cluster Changes

While looking at masteries, we noticed that there were some mechanics that didn't have enough passive tree support, so we decided to add more options and passive skill choices for those mechanics.
We also wanted to grant more access to certain types of masteries in specific parts of the passive skill tree. For example, in order to allow more access to the Attack Mastery, we've added an attack cluster by the Templar, and one between the Ranger and Shadow.
We wanted to create more access to other forms of recovery such as Regen and Recoup, so we've added some new passive skill clusters
The addition of the Stun Mastery introduced some interesting mechanics that we want to provide more interaction with. We've introduced three new stun clusters to the passive tree, and tweaked some existing ones, to provide more ways to build upon stun other than stun and block recovery or reduced stun chance.

Attack Clusters

A new Righteous Fury cluster has been added to the southwest of the Templar's starting location. Righteous Fury grants "10% chance to create Consecrated Ground on Melee Kill, lasting 4 seconds", and "40% increased Melee Damage with Hits at Close Range".

The Powerful Bond cluster has moved location on the Passive Tree to make space for this new Righteous Fury cluster.

A new Multishot cluster has been added to the northeast of the Ranger's starting location. Multishot grants "Attacks fire an additional Projectile".

The Careful Conservationist cluster has slightly moved location on the Passive Tree to make space for this new Multishot cluster.

Bow Clusters

Ascendancy Changes

While going through Ascendancy Classes, we identified two that needed work: the Saboteur and the Pathfinder. Both have been significantly changed in Path of Exile: Crucible. These changes reinforce their respective identities while adding some new options to build around.

Saboteur

The Saboteur is definitely the Ascendancy most aligned with traps and mines, but the previous version of Saboteur made it difficult to play anything but traps or mines. This new version has more builds available, including a whole new specialisation: Triggers. There are two notable passives that help with this, Like Clockwork and Perfect Crime.
Like Clockwork grants you increased Cooldown Recovery rate, while Perfect Crime summons two Triggerbots, which override the location of where a triggered spell is being cast, and instead causes it to trigger twice, once from each of their locations.
The layout for the Saboteur's trap and mine ascendency passives has changed so that there aren't separate four-pointers for traps and mines. Now each one has a two-pointer that is connected to the same shared four-pointer.
Here's a list of the full changes:

A new Like Clockwork Notable has been added, it provides "30% increased Cooldown Recovery Rate" and "Nearby Enemies have 10% reduced Cooldown Recovery Rate". The small passive prior provides 4% increased Movement Speed and 8% increased Area of Effect.

Bomb Specialist no longer provides "You gain 5% increased Area of Effect for each Mine", "25% increased Mine Throwing Speed if you Detonated Mines Recently" or "Mines have 25% increased Detonation Speed". It now provides "Hits have 20% chance to deal 50% more Area Damage" and "20% chance to take 50% less Area Damage from Hits". The small passive prior no longer provides 10% increased Trap and Mine Damage or 5% increased Mine Throwing Speed. Instead, it now provides 8% increased Area of Effect and 10% increased Area Damage.

Demolitions Specialist now causes Mines to Hinder Enemies near them for 2 seconds when they Land, reducing Movement Speed by 30% (previously 40%). No longer requires Like Clockwork (which replaces Bomb Specialist). The small passive prior no longer provides 10% increased Trap and Mine Damage, it now provides 8% increased Area of Effect.

Pyromaniac now requires Demolitions Specialist or Chain Reaction. The small passive after Demolitions Specialist provides 8% increased Area of Effect and 5% increased Mine Throwing Speed. The small passive after Chain Reaction provides 8% increased Area of Effect and 5% increased Trap Throwing Speed.

Perfect Crime no longer grants "You gain 10% increased Damage for each Trap", 25% Chance for Traps to Trigger an additional time, or 25% reduced Cost of Skills that throw Traps. Instead, it now Triggers Level 20 Summon Triggerbots when Allocated, and provides 35% less Damage with Triggered Spells. The small passive prior no longer provides 10% increased Trap and Mine Damage, or 5% increased Trap Throwing Speed. It now provides 4% increased Movement Speed and 8% increased Area of Effect.

Chain Reaction no longer provides 50% increased Cooldown Recovery Rate for throwing Traps. No longer requires Perfect Crime. The small passive prior no longer provides 10% increased Trap and Mine Damage. It instead now provides 8% increased Area of Effect.

The small passive prior to Explosives Expert no longer provides 10% increased Trap and Mine Damage. It instead now provides 8% increased Area of Effect.

The small passive prior to Born in the Shadows no longer provides 10% increased Trap and Mine Damage or 4% Movement Speed. Instead, it now provides 8% increased Area of Effect and 15% increased Blind Effect.

Pathfinder

The Pathfinder has been overdue for some attention, especially with recent features such as Concoction skills that she could get the ability to specialise in. We also wanted the flask-themed Ascendancy to have a proactive way of improving life flask usage.
Master Distiller is a new notable which allows you to turn most of your skills into Concoction-like abilities, while the new version of Master Surgeon effectively gives all your Life Flasks the "Enduring" effect, previously only found on mana flasks.
In addition, both major Flask-themed branches now have some form of flask charge recovery.
Here's a list of the full changes:

Nature's Reprisal: No longer grants 40% of Physical Damage Converted to Chaos Damage, 15% more Chaos Damage with Attack Skills, or Chaos Skills have 30% increased Area of Effect. It instead now grants 25% chance to inflict Withered for 2 seconds on Hit, and 50% increased Effect of Withered.

Nature's Adrenaline: No longer grants 15% increased Movement Speed during any Flask Effect or 20% increased Attack Speed during any Flask Effect. Instead, it now causes Flasks to gain 3 Charges every 3 seconds.

Master Surgeon: No longer grants "Removes Bleeding when you use a Flask", "Removes Corrupted Blood when you use a Flask", "Gain a Flask Charge when you deal a Critical Strike", or "Recover 6% of Life when you use a Flask". Instead, it now grants "Life Flasks are not removed when Unreserved Life is Filled", "Life Flasks do not Queue", and "50% less Life Recovery from Flasks".

Nature's Boon: No longer causes Flasks to gain 3 Charges every 3 seconds, and no longer grants 20% chance for Flasks you use to not consume Charges. Instead, it now causes Magic Utility Flasks applied to you to have 30% increased Effect.

Master Alchemist: No longer causes Magic Utility Flasks applied to you to have 20% increased Effect. Instead, it now provides 50% chance for Flasks you use to not consume Charges.

Veteran Bowyer has been replaced by a new notable - Master Distiller: Grant bonuses to Non-Channelling Skills you use by consuming 3 Charges from a Flask of each of the following types, if possible:
If Diamond FlaskDiamond FlaskLasts 6.00 Seconds
Consumes 20 of 40 Charges on use

Ascendant

The Ascendant's Pathfinder and Saboteur Ascendancy Passive Skills have been changed as a result of these reworks.

The Pathfinder Notable Passive Skill no longer provides Recover 4% of Life when you use a Flask. Now provides 25% chance for Flasks you use to not consume Charges (previously 15%). It also now provides "Removes Bleeding when you use a Flask".

The Saboteur Notable Passive Skill no longer provides "Regenerate 2% of Life per second for each Mine Detonated Recently, up to 10% per second", "Regenerate 2% of Life per second for each Trap Triggered Recently, up to 10% per second" or "Damage Penetrates 8% of Enemy Elemental Resistances". Instead, it now provides 15% increased Cooldown Recovery Rate and Hits have 15% chance to deal 50% more Area Damage.

Early-game Changes

New Gems

We’ve added three new Support Gems in this patch. These Support Gems are all given out in Act One, and supplement the early game of some archetypes as well as introducing players to interesting Path of Exile mechanics early on, such as gems triggering other gems, in a relatively simple manner.

Skill Balance

A number of specific changes primarily to skills acquired in the early game have been made to even the playing field between levelling options. The majority of skills changed here have either been buffed, or have received nerfs to early game power while compensating at higher levels. A few gems which were overperforming overall have had adjustments both to early and endgame power.

Onslaught Support

In an effort to make a wider variety of builds competitive for levelling, we initially considered broadening the use cases for Onslaught Support in order to allow more builds to use it. This would result in Onslaught becoming a mandatory link for almost every build to level faster. This would still mean that the few remaining builds that could not make use of Onslaught Support would be at a speed disadvantage in the early game.
This eventually led to the conclusion that the removal of the support gem, and the addition of a number of new support gems to support more interesting early playstyles was the correct route to try to broaden the playing field. This does lower the early game movement speed potential of some builds, placing more reliance on gear and passive tree choices to invest into movement speed.

Sceptres

As Sceptres are meant to be more caster-oriented than their One-Handed Mace counterparts, it didn’t make sense that many early game Sceptre bases had significantly faster Attack Speeds than One-Handed Maces. These Sceptre bases have had their base attack speed values lowered, and physical damage values buffed to compensate.

Wand and Vendor Recipe changes

The Vendor Recipe granting flat Elemental Damage to Spells no longer exists. Weapons created using this recipe in the first few acts were powerful enough sources of damage to not need to be replaced until players reached even the final few acts of the campaign, which is not ideal. Players should be actively considering weapon replacements as they progress through the levelling process, an aspect of levelling which was undercut by the existence of this vendor recipe. This also gave spellcasters a significant damage advantage in early acts.
We have also changed the implicit modifiers of many Wands. These changed wands now have a new implicit which grants specific flat Elemental Damage to Spells and Attacks. This means that it will still be feasible (through these bases as well as explicit modifiers) to obtain flat Elemental Damage early on, while adding some more consistent early flat damage for wand attackers to take advantage of. There are also endgame variants of these base types, which adds more variety to wand bases.
The following Wands have received new Implicit modifiers:

Arcane Surge

In an effort to have Cast Speed still available early for casters who want to invest into it in their support links, Arcane Surge now grants Cast Speed instead of More Spell Damage. Changes to Hierophant and Ascendant, as well as minor changes to Arcane Surge related passives on the tree, have been made to account for this.

Miscellaneous Player Balance

Stunning enemies has become too trivial with the amount of hit damage the majority of players regularly deal. To combat this, we've made it harder to stun enemies with hits for almost all skills - however, since Melee relies on stuns more than other archetypes for survivability, the ability for Melee Attacks to stun enemies has remained untouched.
Previously, modifiers providing a "chance to avoid Interruption from Stuns" worked in an unintuitive and inconsistent way. These cancel out a stun entirely, preventing effects that happen when Stunned. However, due to an oversight, they did not do this if you blocked a hit that would stun you. This led to things like Cast when Stunned behaving inconsistently depending on whether you block a hit or not.
These modifiers will now also prevent stun-specific effects from blocked hits as well, and will be described as "chance to Ignore Stuns" to more clearly communicate their actual behaviour.

Added the following note:

Helmet enchantments that previously granted increased Absolution Duration now grant increased Sentinel of Absolution Duration, to match the corresponding enchantments for Dominating Blow.

It now has 1 to 2 Added Attack Physical Damage at gem level 1 (previously 2 to 3), scaling up to 101 to 151 at gem level 20 (previously 75 to 113).

It no longer has 50% less Area of Effect after Splitting, however the base radius of the gem has been lowered by 50% as well. This results in a smaller original area of impact and the same size areas for the impacts from split projectiles. Splitting Steel projectiles can now only travel 45 units before splitting.

Updated the following note:
Old:

The Assailum Unique Helmet now Grants Level 30 Snipe Skill (previously 20).

New:

The Assailum Unique Helmet now Grants Level 30 Snipe Skill (previously 20), and has +2 to maximum Snipe Stages.

Added the following section, under Miscellaneous Player Balance:
Previously, modifiers providing a "chance to avoid Interruption from Stuns" worked in an unintuitive and inconsistent way. These cancel out a stun entirely, preventing effects that happen when Stunned. However, due to an oversight, they did not do this if you blocked a hit that would stun you. This led to things like Cast when Stunned behaving inconsistently depending on whether you block a hit or not.
These modifiers will now also prevent stun-specific effects from blocked hits as well, and will be described as "chance to Ignore Stuns" to more clearly communicate their actual behaviour.
Updated the following notes:
Old:

The Esh's Mirror Unique Shield is now found on the Vaal Spirit Shield basetype (previously Thorium Spirit Shield). It no longer has +70-100 to Maximum Life, or provides Shock Reflection.
