Hello, Exiles!

We got some news on the upcoming event for Path of Exile 1, now called the Legacy of Phrecia.

Over the next few days, they will be showing off all the changed ascendancy classes we get for the event.

GGG is still unsure about the event’s timelines, but they hope to have a starting date and as many details as possible ready for early next week.

Remember to check back on this post to see info on new ascendancies as they get released below and check out GGG’s announcement here

Small Ascendancy Nodes

Ranger

Daughter of Oshabi

As an Azmeri, the daughter has a great respect for nature – particularly the forest. She shares many of the powers of the Warden of the Maji, as well as being empowered by Shrines or utilising Sacred Wisps to aid Wand attacks.

Whisperer

The Whisperer is a descendant of Inya of the Pale Court. She travels silently, imbuing her attacks with arcane powers. Investing in your Mana is core to taking advantage of many of her abilities.

Wildspeaker

The Wildspeaker worships the First Ones, a set of animalistic avatars from Ezomyte legend. Choose between the aspect of Farrul, first of the plains, or Saqawal, first of the sky. Her love for the animals of the forest grants her several abilities that aid her allies in battle.

Marauder

Antiquarian

This Karui Collector hails from the port of Ngakanu. Over the course of his long career he has traded for historical artifacts, many of which he can employ in combat. Choose from Kalguuran relics, Karui trinkets used by legendary Chieftains or equipment from one of the great Karui enemies, General Marceus Lioneye.

Behemoth

The Behemoth abhors magic and the users of it. The truest form of combat should be hand to hand, up close and personal. The Behemoth gets progressively stronger throughout combat, gaining Rampage, Fortify and Rage.

Ancestral Commander

This Marauder calls the spirits of his Karui ancestors to his side to both protect him and strike foes down. Be comforted in the knowledge that you have generations of predecessors watching over you.

Shadow

Servant of Arakaali

Tempted by the Spinner of Shadows herself, the Servant does the bidding of the Queen. Arachnophobes stay away, because the Servant can both raise spiders to fight alongside or embrace the Aspect of the Spider to cover enemies in webs.

Update: “Threadspinner” got “Aspect of the Spider has no Reservation” Added.

Surfcaster

The Surfcaster is simply a Chill guy. His home is with the sea, for which he attunes to gain control of the Cold and Lightning elements. An expert fisherman himself you can reap great rewards for holding a Fishing Rod, if you can find him one.

Blind Prophet

Little is known about who the Prophet worships, but it is suspected to be a subterranean evil. Blind from a young age, the Prophet has heightened their other senses through years of training, gaining prowess in projectile attacks, stealth and inflicting curses.

Update: “Restless” node got “Non-Aura Curses you inflict are not removed from Dying Enemies” added.

Witch

Herald

The Herald sees calamity in the future, hopefully only for your enemies. She forsakes auras to go all in on Herald skills, empowering them beyond being simply minor buffs.

20% of Cold Damage taken Recouped as Life
20% of Fire Damage taken Recouped as Life

This witch has taken up residence in a faraway bog, away from the putrid stench of humanity. She has brewed a set of toxins that she administers to herself daily to gain potent skills in exchange for but minor drawbacks.

Duelist

Gambler

Are you the kind of player who likes to play against the odds? This is the perfect class for risk lovers who want to experience the highest of highs, and potentially the lowest of lows. The Gambler specialises in betting on a high payoff and having lady luck take control.

Paladin

The Paladin is a Duelist who has taken a righteous path. He serves to better his allies in combat, protecting them from danger through Link and Aura skills as well as Taunting enemies.

Aristocrat

Born with a silver spoon in their mouth, the Aristocrat had access to the finest education in Oriath. Starting one step ahead in life grants the Aristocrat more passive skill points than any other class.

Templar

Architect of Chaos/Disciple of the Trialmaster

A budding Vaal Architect, this disciple of Chaos experiments with all the deepest secrets of the Vaal. Many of his powers come with a cost. The Architect benefits from employing multiple Vaal skills in their arsenal and enhances equipped Corrupted items.

Polytheist

After a crisis of faith this Templar has decided to devote his worship between several of Wraeclast’s Pantheon of deities, with the aim of finding a new purpose in life. Powers familiar to each of the gods will be yours if you choose to pursue their paths.

Puppeteer

This Templar has desecrated the holy order by experimenting with Undead in his secret laboratory. His aim is reanimation, to command an army of flesh puppets to undertake his foul bidding.

Update Puppeteer’s Rotting Might stacks with The Baron unique helmet.

Scion

Scavenger

This Scion has happened upon a heap of ‘trash’, discarded by other exiles, but for what reason? What exile could look at these curios and think they weren’t incredibly valuable? Well it is hers now, just to decide which to take as she can’t carry them all.
