Watchstone power has been transferred to Atlas passives, which should help offer similar benefits without cumbersome busy work. Hidden maps can be found once more from the base Atlas. In an effort to get more players moving along, the Watchstones introduced in 2021's Echoes of the Atlas have been removed. Those altars will allow players to adjust their character modifications, enemy modifications, or the boss to make them more difficult and make the reward drops greater. Additionally, as players roam through influenced maps, they'll occasionally encounter altars devoted to either Eldritch Horror. If you want their drops, you'll have to earn them.

This gives them a crack at exclusive rewards, but these fights will not be for the faint of heart.
PATH OF EXILE SIEGE OF THE ATLAS PROFESSIONAL
The Searing Exarch and The Eater of Worlds (pictured in the header, not a professional wrestler) pose a grave threat, but for more advanced players, their battles can be farmed more than once. The Searing Exarch is here to rain down misery!

Be aware that the closer you get to either boss, the more powerful their influence will become, consequntly making the enemies of a given map more difficult. Mid-tier maps will randomly radiate with the essence of either The Searing Exarch or The Eater of Worlds to start, but afterwards, players will be able to choose which Eldritch Horror to pursue. Which boss you hunt down depends on the maps selected. This expansion will see players attempt to hunt down these two Eldritch Horrors and their lieutenants, The Black Star and The Infinite Hunger, and can do so simultaneously or one at a time. That's the story behind the new Siege of the Atlas, where two new Eldritch Horrors, The Searing Exarch and The Eater of Worlds ( no, not that one!), now seek the power of the Atlas and to consume all of Wraeclast. Another threat on the level of Sirus was expected eventually, but nobody could have foreseen that multiple ones would emerge at once. That threat takes center stage in Path of Exile's next expansion: Siege of the Atlas.įollowing the events of 2019's Conquerors of the Atlas, the villainous Sirus is now dead and Commander Kirac has assumed the tall task of defending the Atlas. Players last defended the Atlas against the powerful Sirus, but with this foe vanquished, a new threat has arisen. The Atlas was first introduced back in 2016, taking players across the damned continent of Wraeclast, offering new challenges, and unveiling more of the game's comprehensive narrative. Path of Exile has established a long history with one specific element of its lore.
