A new update arrived called 3.21.1 for Path of Exile. The free-to-play ARPG title was developed and published by Grinding Gear Games in 2013 and still receives patches for a better gaming experience. Meanwhile, the latest patch launched a while ago brings bug fixes, improvements, and adjustments. Path of Exile 3.21.1 update patch notes are below.
Path of Exile 3.21.1 Update Patch Notes
Improvements
- The “Defeat 100 Rare Crucible Monsters” and “Defeat 50 Unique Crucible Monsters” conditions for the Towering Titans challenge no long require the Forge of the Titans area to be level 84. The other two conditions for this challenge still require an area level of 84.
- Updated the Ever-Extending Evolution challenge to have “Crucible Passive Skill Tree with at least 11 Skills” as an outcome that awards credit (previously 13 skills).
- The Ever-Extending Evolution challenge now considers a Crucible Passive Skill Tree to be “fully allocated” if the allocation path reaches an end.
- “Map Complete” now displays on the screen overlay when you have defeated the boss(es) in that Map.
- The Cycling Damage Reduction monster modifier now grants 80% reduced damage taken from elements other than the active one (previously 90% reduced).
- Metallon, Banisher of Darkness now spawns fewer total lightning totems, and won’t spawn totems when standing near existing totems.
- The Maximum Quality implicit found on Apex Cleavers is no longer affected by implicit modifier effect from Crucible Passive Skill Trees.
- Elemental Ailments other than Freeze are no longer discarded if their duration is lower than 300ms.
- The vendor recipe for upgrading Scarabs no longer takes priority over the recipe that provides a random Scarab of a different type than the one vendored.
- Instant skills bound to left-click now behave the same as when “Move only” is bound to left-click, for the purposes of movement and interactions. This fixes an issue where your character could move to un-intended locations when moving with an instant skill bound to left-click.
- The Forged Slithering Snake can now be desecrated.
- You can now unallocate Crucible Passive Skills in the Crucible Forge UI when using Controller Input Mode.
- Updated the Atlas and Pantheon panel to clarify any bosses of the Lighthouse Map can be captured to upgrade the Soul of Solaris Pantheon Power.
- Updated the description on Bubonic Trail to clarify it only affects the Reservation Efficiency of Skills.
- Clarified the wording of Cast when Damage Taken Support to explicitly state that only damage from hits is tracked. This is not a functional change.
