Key Content About POE 3.20.1b Patch Notes

Jan 17, 2023

Grinding Gear Games has implemented patch 3.20.1b for Path of Exile, introducing the Voidborn Reliquary Key for unique rewards, tweaking the Forbidden Sanctum League, and fixing rare drops in Ruthless mode.

The Voidborn Reliquary Key is an item that can drop anywhere in the game that will allow access to the Voidborn Reliquary for rare rewards. Players can find a variety of unique items for different builds types, such as magic-focused gear or a versatile Precursor's Emblem Ring. In addition to their debut, improved descriptions of what stats apply to Summoned Skeletons and removed modifiers, such as Fire, Cold, etc. and visual effects on Minions for better map clarity.

A major change in Sanctum is that the Death Toll Major Affliction no longer causes monsters not to drop Aureus Coins. GGG says, "It now causes you to lose 250 Resolve after completing 8 rooms." Ongoing runs in progress will not be affected by this change, but you will see visibility to the ground degen effect has been improved when you fight with Lycia, with each wave of the Herald of the Scourage's Lightning waves spawning more.

Due to the Imagined Pursuits Atlas passive, there are some issues with Ruthless mode where players can get the Vaal Venom Gyre and have an 800% chance of looting the rare Cluster Jewel from Delirium. GGG addresses these issues by removing the Vaal Venom Gyre from Ruthless, and making Atlas Passive a 10% chance to drop Rare and Corrupted items from Delirium encounters.

The following is the specific content of Sanctum changes and other improvements in 3.20.1b patch notes.

POE 3.20.1b Patch Notes

Sanctum Change

  • The Death Toll Major Affliction no longer causes monsters to not drop Aureus Coins. Instead, it now causes you to lose 250 Resolve after completing 8 rooms. This change will not affect existing Sanctum runs.

  • Herald of Scourge's Lightning waves skill now sprawns more Lightning per wave, although the Lightning is now smaller. The delay between waves has been slightly increased, and skill damage has been reduced by 20%.

  • Improved the visibility of ground degradation effects when fighting Lycia, Unholy Heretic.

  • Added an error message for attempting to change your Relics while you have an active Sanctum.

Improvements And Other Changes

  • Introduced the Voidborn Reliquary Key. The Voidborn Reliquary currently has 1231 options for foiled unique items it can spawn. We're still processing lists submitted by Voidborn Supporters to get others on board as soon as possible.

  • Improved the description of the Sandstorm Visage Unique stat to clarify that it only modifies the spell Critical Strike chance of spells, and will not affect spells that deal non-spell damage, such as Heralds.

  • Updated various descriptions to clarify which stats only apply to Summon Skeletons and which also apply to Vaal Summon Skeletons (e.g. modifiers on Alberon's Warpath). Melee Skeletons from Vaal Summon Skeletons are now called "Soldiers" instead of "Warriors" in the description.

  • The visual effect applied to monsters with modifiers that make Minions Fire, Cold, or Lightning, or Explode on Death has been removed as it was causing visual issues in some cases.

  • Betrayal crafts that rerolls socket numbers, links or colours a certain number of times is no longer available for items with fixed socket numbers, links or colours respectively.

  • The "Geared Up" achievement no longer requires a rare or unique item in the Relic socket.

Ruthless-specific Changes

  • The Imagined Pursuits Atlas Passive in Ruthless now gives Cluster Jewels from Delirium Rewards a 10% chance to be Rare and Corrupted instead of "Increased the Rarity of Cluster Jewels from Delirium encounters in the map by 800%".

  • Fixed a bug that caused Vaal Venom Gyre to be obtainable in Ruthless.

All in all, regardless of the changes in Path of Exile, POE Currency has played a vital role in improving your game progress.
