5 Most Popular New Masteries In Path Of Exile 3.21

Jun 30, 2023 Author: POECurrency.com

We’re going to be talking a bit about Passive Skill Tree Masteries.

In POE 3.21, we received a bunch of Mastery reworks, which largely replace a lot of the more generic options with more interesting ones and seem to attempt to remove most of the always pick masteries that’s the ones that you would basically always have to pick if you were running a certain build. Those are things such as the Determination and Grace Reservation Efficiency Mastery.

About half of the passageway masteries were reworked. And I think it’s quite likely that the other half are going to be reworked as part of patch 3.22. So, let’s take a look at the top five most popular new masteries that were added in 3.21.

Lucky Suppression

We’re starting off with the new Spell Suppression Mastery - “Chance to Suppress Spell Damage is Lucky”. This one is being used by about 15% of characters on the Softcore Trade Crucible ladder. And this also includes many characters on the opposite side of the Passive Tree with no access to this Mastery.

So, it’s fair to say that it’s being used by a lot of characters in the vicinity of the right side of the tree that are also investing into Spell Suppression. And it’s equally as popular in other leagues as well, and this is just generally a great Mastery for Spell Suppression gearing.

You can either make use of this Mastery before you’ve reached 100% chance to suppress spell damage, which will help you have a higher effective Spell Suppression chance before you’ve acquired stronger gear or like a lot of builds, you can just make use of this Mastery to simply make a smaller chance to suppress spell damage a lot more effective.

This Mastery will roll your charm to suppress spell damage twice. For example, if you add 50% chance to suppress through damage with this Mastery, your effective chance to suppress spell damage would be 75% and I think this Mastery being popular is not surprising at all. It’s a very strong one-point modifier, especially considering all of these builds will already be investing into at least one spell suppression wheel on the Passive Tree.

Instant Leech

Next up, we’ve got the Leech Mastery - “10% of Leech is Instant”.

This one is being picked up by about 19% of all builds on Softcore Trade Crucible and it’s extremely powerful. This Mastery is so good for sustain in general since it works on Life, Mana and Energy Shield Leech.

One of the top uses for this Mastery is on Trickster builds using this Mastery to have incredible Energy Shield Recovery. The great thing about this one on Trickster is that when you do lose Energy Shield, you’ll be able to recover to full that much faster. And that means that the Energy Leech Support is going to be providing that full energy shield damage bonus more of the time, which is very strong.

And this Mastery is great to proactively solve issues with Mana and general Life Recovery. We see a lot of builds using this Mastery are Deadeyes. Obviously, Deadeyes are really popular ascendancy in this league was a very heavy bow focus league and a lot of these Deadeye builds are using Calm Spirit unique gloves. So, they’re very reliant on leech as a primary form of recovery and Instant Leech works wonders for that.

Inverted Resistances

The next Mastery is the Elemental Mastery - “Hits Have a 25% Chance to Treat Enemy Monster Elemental Resistance Values as Inverted”.

This one’s being picked up slightly more than the last at 21% of all characters in Softcore Trade Crucible. And honestly, this Mastery is just kind of ridiculous. The huge majority of builds picking this one up are bow builds, lots of Ice Shot, Lightning Arrow, and that sort of stuff. And these builds are largely using Sniper’s Mark as their curse, with a small amount using Assassin’s Mark instead.

Many of those builds don’t have exposure either. They don’t have exposure from the gloves or a skill as I said a lot of them are using the Clams Spirit gloves. This means that bosses will typically have 50% Elemental Resistance against most of the damage being dealt.

So, the 25% of the time when this Mastery progs, the hit will deal damage as though the boss had minus 50% Elemental Resistances, which is just a crazy increase in damage for just a single passive point spent.

Obviously, the value of this Mastery goes down a bit if you’re using a curse to lower a boss’s resistance. But it’s still quite effective even if the boss has 15 or 20% resistance.

No Life Body Armour

Next up, we’ve got the Life Mastery - “15% Increased Maximum Life If There Are No Life Modifiers On Equipped Body Armour”.

This Mastery pretty much replaced the 10% increased maximum life Mastery that we had access to last patch. But these two have very different use cases and it enables a lot of interesting options for the body armor slot. This one is very popular as a 26% use rate by characters in Softcore Trade Crucible.

Path of Exile 3.21 Hyrri's Ire

Once again, a large majority of those builds are Deadeye build and many of those using Hyrri’s Ire, a unique body armor, which just has insane value for those elemental bow builds. It has a huge amount of added damage. You also gain a massive amount of spell suppression and evasion. And importantly, it doesn’t have a life modifier, which means it can be used with this Mastery.

We also see a lot of Juggernaut builds mainly Boneshatter builds using this one too, making a big Glorious Plate body armor with a huge focus on armor and other important modifiers, like additional PDR. And that makes crafting these POE Items easier when you can forgo life and allocate the Mastery instead, which is another really strong one-point Mastery there.

Mana Reservation Efficiency

Lastly, the most popular new Mastery in 3.21, the Mana Mastery - “for 12% Increased Mana Reservation of Skills”.

It was always going to be this one wasn’t it, especially after the removal of the dedicated reservation efficiency masteries. And this one is being used by a massive 40% of characters on Softcore Trade Crucible. It’s quite interesting actually because many of those builds wouldn’t usually be investing any points into a Mana wheel on the tree.

Now, they’re investing at least three points to grab the notable and this Mastery and it’s absolutely worth it. Since this is global Mana Reservation Efficiency rather than skill specific, it’s very strong. And it’s often the case that this Mastery is enough along with, perhaps, an Enlighten to allow a build to run that additional Aura, which makes it a must-have for many builds. If you also like this Mastery very much, then use your POE Currency to get one directly.

I have to say I think I prefer this Mastery to the dedicated ones from the last patch. It does make more sense that this type of Mastery is on a Mana wheel instead.

Next: Path Of Exile 2 Patch 0.4.0 Update Predictions | ToTA, Delve, Breach Rework & New Classes

Previous: What Exactly Caused Lightning Coil Shift In Popularity In POE 3.21?

Predicted Release Date For Patch 0.4.0

Based on the four-month release cycle of PoE 1 and the fact that Rise of the Abyssal League launched at the end of August, it is speculated that PoE 2 patch 0.4.0 will be released soon. Considering the development team’s Christmas break, they typically don’t release new patches right before the holidays, so patch 0.4.0 should arrive in the first half of December.

The next league’s launch event is usually held the week before the current league ends, and the likely date is December 6th, which also marks the one-year anniversary of PoE 2. The official release of patch 0.4 is expected around December 13th. It’s anticipated that full patch notes for 0.4.0 will be revealed in the last week of November.

Of course, the development team might also announce a delay due to unfinished content, releasing it after Christmas holidays in January 2026.

Possible New Content

ToTA Mechanics

ToTA (Trial of the Ancestors) mechanic was originally planned for patch 0.3.0 but wasn’t completed, so patch 0.4.0 is almost certain to introduce it. It will be a full gameplay mechanic, not a small seasonal feature, and may be tied to Ascendancy Class system.

Delve

Delve is one of Game Director Jonathan’s favorite mechanics. The related content was already present in the patch 0.3.0, which is Isle of Kin.

Since tablets in PoE 2 now function similarly to scarabs in PoE 1, introducing a mechanic like Delve - which consumes PoE 2 currency to enter - is a logical next step. Delve is also a nearly infinite long-term mode that can sustain player engagement, making it an ideal feature for a Christmas season release.

Breach Rework

Breach received a major rework in PoE 3.27, and the outcome was well-received. PoE 1 currently acts somewhat like a beta realm for PoE 2, so the developers may rework systems in PoE 1 to refine them before porting them into PoE 2. Therefore, Breach is very likely to receive a rework in patch 0.4.0.

New Classes

Patch 0.4.0 will likely introduce new classes, as patch 0.3.0 made very few updates to classes and ascendancies. To deliver a strong seasonal update impact during Christmas, the official team is expected to release at least one new class. While nothing is confirmed yet, several possibilities exist.

Druid

Druids were mentioned alongside Huntresses in patch 0.2.0, suggesting that development on the class may already be complete. Therefore, seeing a Druid class in patch 0.4.0 seems logical. However, Druids are inherently complex, with form-shifting mechanics that may conflict with certain design systems, so delays are possible.

Templar

If Delve is added, PoE 2 will need more tank-oriented classes capable of enduring sustained damage. Warrior and its ascendancies alone may not be enough. Therefore, introducing Templar class alongside Delve is a strong possibility.

With the introduction of new classes comes a wave of new skill gems, support gems, and possibly new weapon types.

These new skills will not be restricted to the new classes; all classes can use them, which will inevitably impact existing builds and the broader meta. Some balance changes are expected, potentially affecting overperforming builds such as Lightning Arrow Deadeye.

Predicted Content

Atlas Endgame Overhaul

Patch 0.3.0 added more unique maps, further refined Atlas Tree, and removed the requirement to use Towers, completely changing how players cultivate the map.

These changes lower the reward ceiling for top-tier players on maps, but simultaneously raise the reward floor for average players, making farming smoother for less hardcore players.

Patch 0.4.0 is likely to include a major overhaul of the endgame. Since patch 0.3.0 already adjusted towers and tablets, this may be a prelude to even larger changes.

If currency-intensive mechanics like Delve are added, the existing Atlas passive skill tree may require adjustments. Additionally, there are signs that the team favors certain PoE 1 endgame philosophies. They may keep the large otherworldly maps of PoE 2 but rework how they operate, improving tower interactivity to make gameplay more engaging and reduce the current tendency toward mindless grinding.

New Acts

If patch 0.4.0 already includes large systems like Delve and ToTA, the team may not have enough development bandwidth to finish Acts 5 and 6. These may instead be introduced next year in patch 0.5 or 0.6.

Players can remain optimistic about PoE 2 Patch 0.4.0, as Patch 0.3.0, by adjusting the pace between PoE 1 and early PoE 2 versions, has brought significant improvements in player numbers, playtime, and player satisfaction. Therefore, future updates to Path of Exile 2 will continue to move towards hyper blast fun.

Path Of Exile 3.27 Top 10 Best Builds | Overpowered League Starters & Fast Mapping Builds

Path of Exile 3.27 has been running for over two weeks, and many players have moved beyond the early campaign phase and are focusing on mapping.

At this point, players typically need builds that offer high survivability and fast map-clearing speed to improve farming efficiency. Below are 10 of the strongest builds currently available.

1. Kinetic Blast Wander Build

Kinetic Blast Wander build theoretically boasts over 20 million DPS, making it an extremely powerful build, though it's highly likely to be nerfed in the next patch. This build primarily utilizes Bloodline node, Farewell to Flesh, and the new skill gem Kinetic Blast.

Kinetic Blast is a ranged projectile skill that explodes into multiple additional explosions upon hit, all of which hit a single enemy.

Farewell to Flesh node amplifies the damage of each Herald skill as long as mana is preserved. Combined with Herald of Thunder and Herald of Ice, it achieves nearly 90% mana preservation. This build also boasts a permanent 24% shell, elemental immunity, and energy shield over-life drain, making it exceptionally survivable.

Early on, place Herald gem in Honourhome helmet, focusing on stacking power and elemental focus. Use Essence Worm Unset Ring for double scaling. Later, stack Herald effects with Tattoos, Cluster jewels, and Corruptions to ensure the buffs are self-circulating.

2. Earthshatter Berserker Build

Earthshatter Berserker is a classic power-based build, excelling in Hardcore SSF and the trade league. It's fast, brutal, and surprisingly tanky.

During the campaign, you can focus on crafting physical weapons, using PoE currency appropriately to ensure your magical or rare weapons have suitable affixes. During the farming phase, you can acquire an axe through gambling, then stack life, resistances, and movement speed on rare items.

While farming, you need to constantly use Blood Rage to maintain exerted attacks and destroy everything in its path. This build is very easy to gear up, allowing for high damage even on the first day of your league journey.

3. Archmage Hierophant Build

This build requires a transfigured version of Frostbolt, making Frostbolt have no cooldown and heavily reliant on cast speed scaling, and its gameplay is similar to a spell-based Flicker Strike.

By unleashing Frostbolts to fill the screen, you can instantly destroy hordes of monsters, while simultaneously adding overlapping explosions with Vortex of Projection. You no longer need to manually cast Vortex, and it's automatically triggered by the projectiles, allowing you to maintain movement and safety. After acquiring Echoing Shrine, it transforms into a spell-based Gatling gun.

4. Venom Gyre Deadeye Build

Venom Gyre Deadeye build scales damage and defense directly from Dexterity. Each point of Dexterity translates into Speed, Poison Power, and Evasion.

Early on, you can use Cobra Lash for a smooth upgrade path, switching to Venom Gyre later in the game. This build blends melee and projectile gameplay, excelling in content like Legion, Breach, Blight, and Strongboxes thanks to its high-resolution map speed and mobility.

5. Energy Blade Inquisitor Build

Energy Blade is a hybrid build that converts the energy shield into pure lightning damage, and it can enhance almost any spell. Initially, you only need a small number of Divine Orbs. Later, their powerful AOE capabilities provide substantial rewards, and you can use them as a base to develop various playstyles.

6. Penance Brand Of Dissipation Build

This build primarily involves placing brands to attach to enemies, accumulating energy, and then exploding them into pulse waves.

Mind Over Matter and Eldritch Battery can absorb damage using mana. The energy shield is used as mana, making this build incredibly tanky when fully charged.

In boss fights, timing and control are crucial. The explosion deals the most damage when the brand reaches maximum energy.

7. Cyclone Hollow Palm Gladiator Build

This build utilizes the signature Cyclone skill, but forgoes weapons. Every drop of its damage and defense comes from Dexterity, which simultaneously increases damage, attack speed, and evasion.

You can pair it with Devoto's Devotion helmet for increased attack speed, and Purity of Elements for elemental resistance, making your character almost impossible to hit. Gladiator Ascendancy also provides block and damage reduction, which, combined with potion effects and Ralakesh's Impatience boots, allows for even faster attack speed, making it one of the fastest map-clearing builds in the game.

8. Animate Weapon Of Ranged Arms Necromance Build

This classic summoner build is reborn with the new support ability Bladefall of Trarthus. The new ability eliminates the need to manually cast it every few seconds to generate weapons; it now continuously generates blades, perfectly maintaining the duration of Animate Weapon.

This build is more powerful, more resilient, and more flexible. It's viable in hardcore mode, capable of pinnacle bosses, and requires only simple gem switching between farming and boss fights. The primary damage comes from Animate Weapon itself, supplemented by Spectres, Animate Guardian, and Despair.

9. Poisonous Concoction Of Bouncing Build

This is the most beginner-friendly build and performs exceptionally well in the current version. It's fast, deadly, and has extremely low gear requirements, making it virtually immune to bad luck. Because its damage relies entirely on the character's health, potions, and skill gem levels, players don't even need a weapon. Simply stack health, resistances, and dodge on your gear to achieve this. Pathfinder provides permanent flask effects, a huge amount of movement speed, and powerful poison sustain.

10. Flicker Strike Frost Blades Champion Build

Flicker Strike is undoubtedly one of the most iconic and chaotic skills in Path of Exile, and in version 3.27, it returns faster, stronger, and more insane.

The fun of this build lies in its extreme speed and chaos. You can teleport infinitely between enemies, sometimes even your screen can't keep up with your movements. The rework of Champion Ascendancy further enhances this.

That concludes these PoE build recommendations. Hopefully, this will help you find a more fun and easier build.

How Can Regular Players Obtain Rewards?

Although this event will last for 7 days, the prizes are clearly designed for players with time and skill, such as Ben, Alex, Jung, Exil, etc. However, Third Edict Mystery Box rewards are also quite good for regular players. The question is how to safely and quickly level up to 50 in HC SSF.

In Hardcore SSF, you cannot buy PoE Currency or trade items with other , and your character is deleted upon death. Therefore, to reach level 50, survivability is paramount, followed by damage and leveling. Ideal builds maintain sufficient damage output while also possessing some AoE capabilities, allowing for quick monster clearing.

Melee Slam Builds

These builds utilize Slam-type skills for wide-area, high-damage attacks. Juggernaut is highly recommended due to its extremely high defensive capabilities, making it suitable for Hardcore Fighting (HCSF) progression.

It enhances survivability through Endurance Charge and additional elemental and physical damage reduction. You can complete all content and Tier 17 maps with only 5-link gear.

Alternatively, you can choose Slayer or Berserker, but their defense is not as high as Juggernaut's.

Wand Builds

Wand builds utilize Wands for attacks, primarily launching Projectiles. The wands in PoE 3.27 are incredibly powerful, especially with the new skill Somatic Shell and developer demos focusing on projectile attacks and wands. Three new wands have also been added this league. The damage and upgrade speed of wand builds are undeniable.

Kinetic Blast of Clustering Hierophant and Kinetic Rain Elementalist or Hierophant are also very powerful wand builds, but their survivability is lower than melee Slam builds, requiring a certain level of skill.

Mines builds

Mines builds can use mines to trigger abilities, creating large-area AOE explosions. In the current league, it's recommended to pair them with Exsanguinate and Reap. This proved effective in the previous league and doesn't have high gear requirements.

As for Ascendancy class, you can choose Trickster and Elementalist, although Trickster has been nerfed in this league.

If you're unsure which specific build to play, you can first check the performance of HCSSF ladder builds from the previous league to confirm their viability before choosing trap builds.

That concludes the overview of POE 3.27 Uber Boss Kill Event. We hope you achieve your desired ranking and win the grand prize.

Path Of Exile 3.27 Blights Farming Guide | Mechanisms, Changes And Strategies

The current Keepers of the Flame league in PoE is interesting because it not only adds several new mechanics, but its core mechanic, Breaches, is essentially a reset and echo of the permanent gameplay and the past Breach league.

Besides the new Breaches, which are worth experiencing, some permanent gameplay has been updated through 3.27 league, offering a better experience and a large amount of loot. Among these gameplay, Blights is quite important.

So why does Blights remain valuable among the many new gameplay elements, and how can you farm it in the new league to obtain currency and various items? We will explain.

Blights Mechanism Overview

Blights are essentially a tower defense encounter that generates through Fungal Growths in any map area. Generally, the probability of triggering it on non-unique maps is at least 8%.

In addition, you can also unlock Blight encounters by transferring other normal maps from using the modifiers. Blights on these special maps are larger, allowing you to earn more rewards by killing more enemies.

Compared to most Path of Exile encounters or events, Blights are easier to complete and trigger, and more importantly, offer a wider variety and greater quantity of rewards. Therefore, trading Blighted maps is very popular.

When Blights appear, they are represented in-game as fungi. The important NPC Sister Cassia will then place a purification pump on these fungi, causing them to randomly grow roots in various directions.

As the roots extend, you'll find a portal at the end of each root, from which enemies spawn and converge towards the center of the fungus. The number of roots that can spawn depends on the map tier you're in when Blights are triggered, with a maximum of 8 roots.

Your task is to build defensive towers on each root to prevent enemies from entering the fungus's core. Sometimes, certain roots may spawn even more enemies or special Blight bosses.

Furthermore, the enemies on different roots have different resistances, requiring you to build defensive towers based on their characteristics. The resources for building these towers are obtained by completing other game tasks or defeating Blight enemies.

Once an enemy breaches the defensive tower and reaches the core, the durability of the purification pump placed by Cassia will decrease until it disappears. While enemies will stop spawning, this also means your Blight challenge has failed.

However, if you successfully defend against and defeat all the enemies on the roots, a reward chest will spawn at the portal at the end of the root. Even if you fail, a portion of the reward will be retained, preventing you from returning completely empty-handed.

Changes To Blights In 3.27 League

While the main Blight mechanics weren't changed in 3.27 league updates, the experience was improved through several details.

Firstly, now when you open a chest, other chests within a 1.5-meter radius will automatically open, and their items will be automatically collected into your inventory, eliminating the hassle of walking between roots to collect items.

Secondly, the boss summoned by Blight Scarab of Blooming will no longer bring additional monsters, thus appropriately reducing the difficulty of completing Blight encounters and making it easier to earn rewards.

How To Choose Passive Nodes, Scarabs, And Maps?

Keepers League has updated the entire Atlas tree, so to more effectively clear Blights, you need to change your passive tree setup.

To this end, you should prioritize unlocking nodes in both small and large passive nodes that increase the spawn rate of Tier 1-15 maps, thereby increasing the chance of triggering Blight encounters by generating many maps.

An additional node to mention is Singular Focus, which will cause more regular maps to be converted into Favored maps instead of Blight versions, so you should avoid it.

Furthermore, you need to unlock nodes that increase the number or type of Scarabs dropped when killing enemies on the map, thus providing more enhancements to your Blight maps and increasing their farming value. Available Scarab nodes include:

Amplified Artifacts and Remarkable Relics
Scarab of Bosses
Strongbox Scarabs
Scarab of Fortifications
Amplified Artifacts and Remarkable Relics
Scarab Nodes for Specific Mechanics

Based on this, besides the already mentioned optimized Blight Scarab of Blooming, another recommended Scarab is Blight Scarab of Invigoration, which increases the difficulty and loot rewards of all Blight enemies within its effect range.

Since triggering Blights randomly during exploration is too random, converting existing maps is a better way to farm them efficiently. Therefore, we recommend prioritizing converting Toxic Sewer map.

Which Eldritch Altar Should You Choose?

You might find this altar on the map after defeating specific enemies. There are two types: the red Searing Exarch Altar and the blue Eater of Worlds Altar, each applying different buffs to your Blight map.

The red altar increases your chances of obtaining different types of currency, while the blue altar increases the quantity and rarity of your drops.

In 3.27 league, both blue and red altars are viable for Blight maps; the final choice depends on your desired effect: blue altars offer higher overall value and are better suited for upgrades, while red altars require less investment.

Tower Building Strategy

In the current league, Atlas passive skill Templar Ingenuity allows you to build all types of Blight towers and upgrade them to the highest level.

We recommend building one of each type of tower to diversify their attributes and ensure you can defend against a wider variety of enemy types.

These are the tips for continuing to farm loot using the classic Blight farming mechanic in Keepers of the Flame league. We hope this helps you progress through the league!
