Path of Exile 2's latest update, 0.1.1c, addresses several key issues and introduces notable improvements. The Grinding Gear Games team detailed the fixes and additions implemented in this significant patch.
Here's a summary of the changes:
Bug Fixes: The update resolves a bug preventing access to the Cartwalker Machine after character transfers from solo league. Various local cooperative mode bugs have been squashed, preventing Player 2 from accessing Player 1's UI elements (like high-level maps) and improving movement between control points.
Increased Revival Attempts: Players now have up to five revival attempts in challenging areas such as Distorted Possessions, the Olroth encounter, and the Essence of Nonexistence realm, depending on the difficulty level. A crucial addition is the revival within the boss arena in The Mists upon death before defeating the Host, restarting the fight.
Character Renaming: A welcome addition for players is the ability to rename characters via the official website.
Despite some initial launch challenges, Path of Exile 2 remains a top performer on Steam, showcasing the developers' dedication to addressing player concerns and continuously improving the game. Grinding Gear Games' commitment to post-launch support is evident in this substantial update.
