How To Maximize The Power Of Perandus Pact Unique Jewel In Path Of Exile 3.24?

Apr 13, 2024

The introduction of the Necropolis League in Path of Exile 3.24 has brought with it a diverse selection of Uniques. One of these is the Perandus Pact, which is unique to Necropolis grave crafting and is composed of the bodies of 4 different corpses of the Perandus family. Today, let's take a closer look at this unique Prismatic Jewel.

This jewel adds stats to passive skills within a large radius, effectively increasing the value of those passive skills. The stats which it provides can vary between 13 different outcomes, making the jewel very versatile to benefit from a large variety of builds.

How To Maximize The Power Of Perandus Pact Unique Jewel In Path Of Exile 3.24?

Mechanic Of Perandus Pact

How does the Perandus Pact work? Let's take the example of the one which has 'Passive skills in radius also grant +5 to maximum life'. The Perandus Pact has a large jewel radius. Every node in the radius around the jewel will have +5 to maximum life added to the pre-existing stats on that node.

All the nodes in the radius indicated by the blue ring around this jewel socket will have +5 to maximum life added to their pre-existing stats. So, with the currently allocated passive skills, this tree has 14 nodes that are allocated within the jewel's radius. Therefore, this jewel would be providing +70 to maximum life.

Somewhat similarly to some of the Timeless Jewels, the Perandus Pact makes nodes in its radius more valuable by adding a stat to them. This makes the positioning of this jewel and the makeup of your passive tree a lot more important, especially since the Perandus Pact is limited to one.

Build Example

Let's talk about a build example using this jewel. A Righteous Fire Chieftain would typically use this jewel on the passive skill tree. By using the Perandus Pact jewel, which adds 6% increased fire damage to passive skills within its radius in this jewel slot.

Path Of Exile 3.24 Righteous Fire Chieftain

The Chieftain would gain 96% increased fire damage from the Perandus Pact in the socket, since there are 16 passive skills allocated within its radius. Keep in mind that this is just a fairly standard passive skill tree pairing that's being used. However, when using the Perandus Pact, you're likely going to optimize your passive skill tree to get the most out of this jewel.

Another one could be the jewel socket near the Templar's starting point on the passive skill tree. For a Physical-to-Fire Conversion build, has 25 nodes allocated within the large jewel radius would provide a ridiculous 150% increased fire damage when placed in this jewel slot.

Passive Trees & Unnatural Instinct

Optimizing your passive tree to better suit this new jewel and get the most out of this jewel. Unnatural Instinct is a unique jewel that's limited to one, and it has a small radius. Any allocated small passive skills within its radius grant nothing, but in a trade-off, you gain all the bonuses from all the unallocated small passive skills within that small radius.

However, the Perandus Pact works just like Timeless Jewels for its interaction with Unnatural Instinct. These small unallocated passive skills that are within the radius of Unnatural Instinct and are also within the radius of the Perandus Pact also have those additional stats granted to the character.

Path Of Exile 3.24 Unnatural Instinct

This is absolutely a powerful POE Item that's useful for almost every build. And I'm excited about the fact that you can really increase the effectiveness of the jewel by optimizing passive trees and making use of interactions like the one with Unnatural Instinct.

Other Jewels Interactions

You can also utilize other unique jewels to further increase the potential earnings of the Perandus Pact and apply passive skills within the radius of the Perandus Pact for even more value.

  • The Thread of Hope, which allows you to allocate nodes within the ring that it grants with no need for them to be connected to your tree.
  • The Impossible Escape will also allow you to allocate nodes with no need of them to be connected to your tree, as long as they’re within a radius of the specified keystone.
  • The Intuitive Leap could also be useful around that Scion's starting point, which allows you to allocate passive within a small radius around it without being connected to your tree.
  • The Might of the Meek, which will boost the bonuses granted by nodes within a large radius, but keep in mind that one will also make notable passive skills within that radius grant nothing.

Conclusion

Overall, the Perandus Pact is an overpowerful unique jewel which should be seeing a lot more use than it currently is, as it can be used to good effect on the majority of builds without the need to overhaul the passive skill tree, and can be optimized around to gain a lot more value.
