Path of Exile

Introducing the Settlers of Kalguur Mystery Box

We've just released the Settlers of Kalguur Mystery Box, a new mystery box without duplicate microtransactions! Each of the microtransactions in this mystery box has visual behaviour that interacts with your gameplay. Check out the contents of the box in the video below!



There are 21 microtransactions that you can find in the Settlers of Kalguur Mystery Box. Each of these microtransactions has a varying number of thematic variations, and you'll never receive a duplicate copy of a variation that you have already opened. For example, if you open one variant of a microtransaction, you may later receive another variant, but you'll never get a duplicate! Check out the full details at pathofexile.com/mystery-box






Kirac's Vault

We have released a new version of Kirac's Vault Pass! This league's pass can be purchased with points and also has a free track available. Its premium track contains a new exclusive armour set and some mystery boxes.



Free Track


The free track of Kirac's Vault rewards you with Kirac Missions, as well as items such as Scarabs, a Blighted Map and a Simulacrum for completing bonus objectives of maps in Path of Exile's endgame. You can complete it once in each Settlers league you play, such as Settlers or Hardcore Settlers. The free track does not grant items in Ruthless modes or Private Leagues.

You'll earn your first reward upon completing your first map bonus objective. You'll earn additional rewards by completing sets of map bonus objectives while exploring your Atlas. If you complete the bonus objectives of all 115 maps, you'll have earned all available rewards!

Exclusive Microtransactions


Purchase your premium pass and complete Atlas objectives to earn mystery boxes and the exclusive Rot Shaman Armour Set. This armour set is purely cosmetic and does not affect your character's power or progression.



Frequently Asked Questions



How do I purchase the Pass and track my progress through it?
On the Atlas screen, there's a new Kirac's Vault Pass icon at the top left. Clicking that will let you buy the pass, see the rewards and travel to Kirac's Vault.

How do I claim my rewards?
The Pass has a progress bar that tracks how many bonus objectives of maps on the atlas you have completed. Once you have unlocked a reward, you can click a button on the Pass screen to travel directly to Kirac's Vault, where a chamber containing that reward will unlock for you to claim.

Once claimed, items are dropped on the ground, while the cosmetics are stored in your microtransaction stash, alongside your existing microtransactions.

Is the Premium Pass still good value?
You're now able to buy it using 300 points, rather than $30 cash. Note that spending $30 on a supporter pack gets you 300 points, so for the same cost of the Kirac's Vault Pass, you're now able to receive an entire supporter pack as well as the Kirac's Vault Pass and its contents.

Is this pay-to-win in any way?
No. Access to Kirac's Vault and its cosmetic skins offer no gameplay advantage over other players. Items from the free track are available to all players regardless of what they've paid.

Do I need to have bought the Pass before I complete my Atlas? Is there a penalty for just waiting until near the end of the league and buying it then?
No. The Pass costs the same amount regardless of how many objectives you have already completed, and the relevant rewards will unlock instantly if you buy the Pass after completing objectives. There's no penalty for delaying your purchase until later in the league, though you'll need to purchase it before the league ends.

Can I pay more money to unlock rewards that I have not been able to unlock through gameplay?
You can't pay to unlock rewards. Everyone you see with one of the exclusive skins from Kirac's Vault will have completed the bonus objectives required to earn it.

Is the Pass available for Standard players?
No. At this stage it is only available to players in the current challenge league because many Standard players can instantly unlock their whole Atlas by completing a single map.

Will I have access to my exclusive skins in Standard or future leagues?
Yes. Any cosmetics earned during this league will be available account-wide and can be equipped to any character you make in any league.

Are the Pass or its cosmetic skins available after this league ends?
No. The Pass can only be purchased during this league and its cosmetic skins are exclusive to this Pass. They will not be available again. If you want to have them in your collection forever, you must purchase the Pass this league and complete the objectives for any skins that you want.

What happens if I'm playing in multiple Settlers leagues? Which league does the Pass track progress from?
The pass tracks your highest Atlas progress from any Settlers league you are playing in (including private leagues based on Settlers).

Will the Kirac's Vault Pass be released on Console platforms?
Absolutely.

What Will Happen When The Necropolis League Ends

The Necropolis Challenge League will end soon and you may be wondering what will happen when it does.

The Necropolis and the Grave Crafting system won’t be going core in 3.25, so here’s what you can expect when the league ends.


  • All of your progress will migrate to the respective parent league of your characters, Necropolis League will migrate to Standard League for example.
  • All Necropolis Uniques except The Perandus Pact will now be added to the core drop pool.
  • The Necropolis will be removed
  • Coffins and Allflame Embers will be deleted


Thanks to everyone for playing and to those of you still trying to complete your unfinished challenges, you still have one week to do so before the Necropolis league ends!

This time around GGG Live will exclusively be focused on Path of Exile: Settlers of Kalguur, meaning there will be no Path of Exile 2 news.
