The first major hotfix for Legion League in Path of Exile is live, bringing a bunch of fixes and balance adjustments to the ARPG.
It’s almost entirely a bug fix update, squashing issues left, right and center. A handful of gameplay related issues, like achievements not completing or skills causing desync and other performance issues have been dealt with. Some skills and areas not properly applying effects have also been fixed. GGG also tweaked a few damage values for some specific Legion-related monsters, making them a little less deadly.
Performance has been pretty solid, but there’s still been a few crashes here and there relating to Legion encounters, these appear to have been fixed.
If you’re just getting into Path of Exile 3.7 and Legion League, we’ve got everything you need to get started. If you’re looking for a good build, check out our starter builds for Legion. If you’re new to POE and need help understanding the mechanics, check out our new players guide to POE. And if you’re looking for a bit of a crash course in Legion, we’ve got that too.
