Massive update and balance overhaul are coming to Path of Exile

The Path of Exile developers have announced a significant update called Synthesis.

Here is the breakdown of the update:

• New dungeons represented in the form of memories of a character named Cavas.
• The memories grant items which can be used for craft.
• The Synthesiser tool takes advantage of the items gained through the Cavas memories for crafting purposes.
• Complete rebalance of spells.
• Six new Chaos and Holy spells.
• New character archetypes.
• 16 “new powerful items”.
• Two new Support Packs.

More details about the update can be found on the official Path of Exile: Synthesis page.

As you can see, Synthesis is a massive update which might bring many old-school players back into this classic dungeon-crawler.

Path of Exile: Synthesis launches on March 8th on PC and on March 11 on consoles. The game originally launched as a free to play title in 2013 and was critically acclaimed as a spiritual successor of Diablo 2. The most successful period the game ever had took place last year after Blizzard announced the mobile game called Diablo: Immortal.

Amid the controversy with the mobile title release, a fan purchased the Playdiablo4.com domain and redirected it to the official Path of Exile website. After a reaction from Blizzard, that person redirected the visitors to a Google image search by the word phone (it’s still working right now).
