In Path of Exile: Necropolis you will now be able to download your loot filters directly into blank skill gems and swap gems to swap loot filters for a more immersive experience while playing.

Every item hidden by the filter will reserve 1 life (or energy shield with CI) until you reactivate the loot filter skill to better integrate the filters into gameplay.

Every skill now needs a corresponding support gem. Socketing Fireball does nothing, you must also socket Cast Fireball Support (120% multiplier) to cast Fireball. These support gems are not sold by vendors and can only be found in barrels.

Running now requires having Right Leg and Left Leg skill gems socketed in your boots.

Socketing Right Leg to the left of Left Leg will cause your character to trip over and inflict an unavoidable stun on themselves.

For Path of Exile: Necropolis we've heard your issues loud and clear. People have had concerns about trading, scams and other issues that make the experience much more frictional than it needs to be.

To combat these issues, we're adding two new types of skill gems: Trade Gems, and Trade Support Gems. These trade gems can have various different effects, such as increasing the size of your trade window or even automating certain trades at your hideout. Additionally they can be supported by various support gems that can add advanced trading functionality, such as scanning the window for currency or enforcing only certain items allowed for the trade. As part of this change, players will be unable to trade until they have found at least one trade gem and socketed it into their gear.

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."
Wonder if we'll see a support gem that gives spells a cooldown + instant cast time.

WHAT THAT SMELL LIKE?!


How will this change the economics of maven rotations? Also, how will it impact the atlas skill tree?

Certainly makes stuff like Destructive Play less valuable, yeah? So it’ll be interesting to see how they modify those tree nodes.

It depends.

Writs should be more scarce. Maven specific drops will be more expensive.

Boss rushing looks to be less lucrative, unless you can boss rush and farm invitations very efficiently.

E: corrected my very bad and very wrong first pass opinion

Uh, wouldn't dedicated Maven runners just buy Splinters/Writs from other people as per usual? And shouldn't there be more of them because it's less a PITA for others to run Invites after they've killed the bosses to do so?

Maybe that blurb at the end of Valdo's maps that offer Invites instead dropping Scarabs will apply to the small passives leading towards Throw the Gauntlet/Destructive Play as well.

You idiot.
In this world it's pet or BE pet.

I think this is a big gain for anyone who's doing maven farming, except for The Feared runners, because those were always dirt cheap and you just bought a bunch and only ran the 8mod ones due to the sheer cost of getting an invite ready. Also it'll be possible to brick your invite with vaal orbs and not be able to just resell it and grab a new one, I guess.

If it's "autocast all warcries at same time" then lol, lmao.

In the video it does look like enduring cry and infernal cry go off at the same time. We can see the enduring cry regen buff in the buff bar at the top, and infernal cry shows the exerted attacks remaining. The confusing part to me is that the call to arms gem doesn't say warcries are instant, yet they were in the video. Wonder if you still need to allocate call to arms on the tree to get instant warcries, or if that is just somehow missing from the support gem description.

Instant cast all warcries automatically actually kind of sounds too good, maybe that clip is before they all shared cooldowns or something.

Would fire casters be willing to spare 3 sockets for endurance charges/regen and a weak ash?

Edit: Mana costs are going to be awful for this, maybe that's the balance point.
