Path of Exile 3.18.0c Patch Notes

This patch contains additional changes to monster modifiers, alongside a few bug fixes and improvements.

Monster modifier changes

• The Invulnerable monster modifier has been replaced with the Benevolent Guardian modifier previously found as a Nemesis modifier. This causes the monster with this modifier to apply an Immunity buff to nearby allies for a short duration. If the original monster is slain, affected allies lose the Immunity buff. Other monsters that have this modifier cannot be given the Immunity buff.
• Toxic Volatiles have had their base speed reduced, and now accelerate over time. They also now explode after 10 seconds at their location if they have not exploded already.
• Reduced the size and improved the visuals of the Ring from the Mana Siphoner monster modifier.
• The Hasted and Arcane Buffer monster modifiers will now be first encountered on level 6 monsters.

Bug fixes and Improvements

• The Grim Reaper Apparition Effect now appears when your Traps, Mines, Totems, or Minions kill an enemy.
• Fixed a bug where Decorative Chests could fail to spawn in The Labyrinth.
• Fixed a bug that caused the joints of Vaal Fallen and Arsonists in the Doryani's Machinarium Map to become quite entangled.
• Fixed a bug where the Highlight Key would not display minimum and maximum defensive values when hovering over items.
• Fixed an issue where some body armours would cause sections of Characters limbs to be invisible.
• Fixed a bug where the filter in the Social Panel was not functioning correctly.
