A new Patch of Exile 2 update, or rather mutiple updates, have been released, bringing over new adjustments and fixes.  Path of Exile 2 update 1.024 focuses on addressing several recent issues brought with the Dawn of the Hunt update. However, before this patch dropped, we also got prompts to for patch version 1.023 and even 1.022 (at least on PS5).

Path of Exile 2 Update 1.024 Brings Multiple Hot Fixes

Path of Exile 2 Version 0.2.0b Patch Notes:

  • All non-unique monsters have less life, tapering from 100% to 75% of what they had between levels 8 and 15. All monsters between level 15 and 46 now have exactly 25% less Life. All monsters between level 46 and 64 now have less life, tapering up from 75% to 100%. This results in all monsters in Endgame having the same Life as before this change. Their thresholds for Crowd Control and Ailments have been adjusted proportionately by the same amount.
  • Rogue Exiles have had their Life reduced by 40% (on top of the change above).
  • The “of the Hydra” (Life Regeneration) Monster Modifier now only appears at Level 65+.
  • Tempest Bell’s Combo required to use has been reduced from 10 to 4.
  • Explosive Grenade and Voltaic Grenade Cooldowns have been lowered to 5 seconds.
  • All Curse Skill Gems now have a higher growth of radius per Level. Starting at 1.5 metres at Level 1, Growing to 3.1 metres (from 2.1 metres) at Level 20.

The patch notes for the other updates released by Grinding Gear Games today include:

Hotfix 5

  • Fixed a bug where the Discipline and Purity Auras granted by Sceptres were not applying to the player wielding them.
  • Fixed an instance crash.

Hotfix 7 (Hotfix 6 included in main patch notes)

  • Temporarily disabled Volatile Boar as a Spectre, until we can make it not repeatedly explode without actually dying.
  • Temporarily disabled the death effect of the Bloodthief Queen as a Spectre.

That’s all for today, though we expect plenty more updates to be arriving shortly!
