We introduced Eternal Orbs in the 0.11.0 patch two years ago. Since then, the impact they've had on Path of Exile and its economy hasn't been what we initially intended.



With the release of The Awakening this weekend, Eternal Orbs will no longer drop. Ones that still exist in the permanent Standard and Hardcore leagues (and their imprints) will still work.



We feel that the ideal time for this change is now, because of the introduction of new top-tier Maraketh Weapon base types and new item mods.



At the release of the next Path of Exile expansion after The Awakening, we'll review economic data and make a decision about whether they are restored or will continue to be disabled.



Master mods that were priced in Eternal Orbs will be modified (and cheaper) in The Awakening. YouTube |
