Next Thursday, July 24th at 1 PM PDT, we’ll be hosting an additional Boss Kill Event in Path of Exile where players can compete to kill the new Pinnacle Bosses from the Secrets of the Atlas expansion. The prize pool includes Godslayer’s Pride microtransactions and the opportunity to collaborate with our devs to create new Unique Items and Divination Cards.

How to Join

The Boss Kill event will be held as an HC SSF Event League (SSF for Consoles) that is available to all players during the event by clicking "Join" in the bottom right corner of the character select screen. Registration opens 30 minutes before the event begins and everyone is welcome to participate!

Start time: July 24th at 1PM PDT. The event will last until all the prizes have been claimed.

Prizepool

Prizes will be awarded to the first ten players who kill all three of the new pinnacle bosses, called "The Incarnations" in their non-quest variations (Area level 84).

Prizes for Top Placings - PC

• 1st: Design a Unique for new Pinnacle Boss: Incarnation of Dread or the future-released Uber variant of this Boss Fight & Collaborate on the design of a Divination Card + Godslayer's Pride Microtransaction. The first place winner will also get some additional design space with their item if they want to do something a little different. For example, if you would like to design a Unique Map or if you would like to design a Unique Item that requires a unique-piece from each of the three Bosses, then needs to be combined to create something more epic, this is something we will allow, so feel free to stray from the norm! This is something our team will help provide more details on during collaboration.
• 2nd: Design a Unique for new Pinnacle Boss: Incarnation of Neglect or the future-released Uber variant of this Boss Fight & Collaborate on the design of a Divination Card + Godslayer's Pride Microtransaction.
• 3rd: Design a Unique for new Pinnacle Boss: Incarnation of Fear or the future-released Uber variant of this Boss Fight & Collaborate on the design of a Divination Card + Godslayer's Pride Microtransaction.
• 4th-10th place: Collaborate on the design of a Divination Card + Godslayer's Pride Microtransaction.

There is also a set of prizes for defeating bosses that were historically significant to Zana, who has returned in this expansion. Bonus prizes will be awarded to the first players to defeat Uber Sirus, Uber Uber Elder, Uber Shaper or Uber Cortex. There is also a bonus prize for defeating Catarina.

Additional Rules

• A player can win both a Placing prize and one or more Bonus Prizes.
• Winners of the first Boss Kill event can participate in the second one.
• Players who migrate from a private league to Mercenaries HC SSF during the event are ineligible for prizes.
• Placings and prize eligibility are entirely at the discretion of Grinding Gear Games.
• The prizes that consist of collaborating on the design of a Divination Card or Unique Item do not guarantee that the item will turn out exactly how you want. The design team will try to accommodate your suggestions as best as they can, but the final design is at their discretion. Because these Unique Items are likely to become chase content, it's critical that they fit the overall design vision of Path of Exile. The balance and drop chances of these items after their release is entirely at the discretion of Grinding Gear Games.
• While the event being SSF reduces a lot of scope for outside help, any form of account sharing (or other breaches of the Terms of Use) will disqualify a player from receiving prizes. Grinding Gear Games Employees (past or present) are not eligible for prizes.
• Dying or migrating your character out of the league doesn't remove prize eligibility as long as the kill occurred while in the league.
• Prizes cannot be transferred. Only the person who completed the achievements in the event can collaborate on the Unique Item and Divination Card designs. It's fine for these people to seek advice and help from other community members with their design.
• Upon winning, if you take too long to engage in the collaborative design such that the content may have changed context or been removed from the game then you will lose your design opportunity or it will be moved to another Pinnacle Boss or equivalent at Grinding Gear Games' discretion. We will notify you in advance where possible of course!

Good luck in the event!
