The folks at Grinding Gear Games have recently launched the War for the Atlas expansion for their action-RPG Path of Exile. With that done, they're now thinking about taking a much deserved holiday break before launching into full development of the next major update for the game (it should be ready by March 2018). However, a few issues still stand between the GGG devs and their break. Those are currently being worked on and should be resolved relatively soon. Here's what they are:
- Spell Echo and Multistrike no longer repeatedly casts or attacks for certain minions. We have a fix for this already but it requires further testing. It will be deployed relatively soon.
- The Amanamu encounter has an error where sometimes the boss will perform no actions. There are some fixes that were introduced recently but there are likely to be more coming.
- Strongboxes that revive slain Abyss monsters causes these monsters to be invulnerable.
- Currently when you mouse-click the Flask UI to consume a charge the timer is prevented from displaying.
- Heretic's Veil is incorrectly displaying "reduced effect of Socketed Jewels".
- The debuff icon can overlap with the Rampage kill counter.
- The Zana mission to kill Corrupted Bosses in Pen Map is not able to be completed.
- Linking mystery boxes in chat does not display the mystery box correctly.
- Blood Offering is able to be used in conjunction with other Offering skills.
- The 'Echoes of Witchcraft' prophecy is unable to be completed in the Western Forest in Act 6.
- The Darkshrine effect to make Izaro drop an additional unique item does not work.
- The location of the 'Abandon Mission' button on Vagan is in the wrong location on the menu.
- "Projectiles gain 18% of Non-Chaos Damage as extra Chaos Damage per Chain" doesn't work correctly if you only have 1 chain.
- The hitbox size of the entrance to Abyssal Depths is too large.
- A monster can spawn with Inner Treasure but won't drop a unique.
- The Eradicator can sometimes become invisible making the fight impossible to complete.
- Re-entering Spires of Delusion sometimes causes the game to crash.
- Various issues with The Poet's Pen are being investigated.
- Detonate Mines sometimes fails to detonate if you try to detonate it while running.
- It is possible to have "Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 38 Poison". This is an issue with the display only.
- Fixing Volley with Magma Orb projectiles so they continue to go parallel after they bounce.
- We are working on fixing various causes of client crash.
- Using Body Swap with Spell Totem currently doesn't work for targeting Kitava.
- Optional Quests (for example, A Dirty Job) are sometimes displayed in the quest tracker while in Maps.
