Path of Exile 3.10, Delirium League

The patch notes for Path of Exile 3.10 have just dropped, and folks want to know what skills are on-meta this league, same as any other POE challenge league. The 3.10 patch packs in tons of new mechanics for the Delirium league content, but also brings home a ton of changes to skills, as is customary for a patch from GGG.

Below you will find our breakdown of all of the Path of Exile 3.10 Skills that have been buffed and nerfed, as well as any major gameplay changes being brought in the patch. While you’re here, why not prep for the expansion by taking a gander at some of our other guides.

Here are our other Path of Exile 3.10 Guides:

Be sure to check out the full patch notes.

Firstly though, let’s go into some core gameplay changes you should be aware of.

  • All totems and ballistas now have approximately 50% more base life than previously, with the exception of Ancestral Totems, Decoy Totems and Holy Flame Totems.
  • Fossils can no longer craft any prefix or suffix mods that cannot be obtained elsewhere, with the exception of those granted by Faceted, Bloodstained and Hollow Fossils.
  • Physical Damage taken as Chaos/Fire/Cold/Lightning, as well as Curse on Hit modifiers are now mutually exclusive.
  • Modifiers to Melee Weapon and Unarmed Attack Range are now described as “+X to Melee Strike Range”. The functionality hasn’t changed. Weapons that describe their range still refer to “Weapon Range”.
  • Increases and reductions to reflected damage taken (such as the Sextant modifier or the Yugul God Power) now also affect your minions.
  • Wand attack projectiles are now considered larger for the purposes of collision detection against monsters.
  • Elusive now grants 30% increased movement speed (from 40%), 15% chance to dodge attacks (from 20%) and 15% chance to dodge spells (from 20%).
  • There is now a hard upper limit of 75% for chance to Avoid Damage from Hits (such as the fire damage avoidance found on Glitterdisc).
  • The chance for a Conqueror to occupy an Atlas region is now 50%.
  • Some Atlas mechanics have been clarified, making progression easier.

Main Attack Skill Reworks

First up is the batch of changes to main attack skills. GGG has worked in a pretty big amount of reworks in Path of Exile 3.9. In particular bow-based skills have gotten the most attention.

Buffs:

  • Animate Weapon – Major reduction in maximum number of summoned weapons. Minor increase in damage and new movement speed and attack speed buff setup. Can now be supported by Unleash and Spell Echo.
  • Artillery Ballista – Increased DPS through better damage application.
  • Frostblink – Applies Chilled Ground. Increased travel distance, better DPS
  • Lightning Warp – Reduced Druation bonus scales better. Fast base cast time.
