If you’ve been engrossed in the early access of Path of Exile 2 during the holidays, the anticipation for patch notes may be growing. While everyone has their issues with the game, which is still in need of refining despite its strong foundation, good news is finally here after weeks of silence from Grinding Gear Games—the developers are delivering a series of patch updates, many of which come with a humorous twist.

Consider the infamous Strongboxes in the game, which are not living up to the high expectations set by their predecessors in Path of Exile 1. They reportedly open slowly and obscure visibility with a fog that can be more annoying than engaging, leaving players frustrated.

According to the latest patch notes, concerns regarding the Delirium aspect of the game were addressed, albeit with a humorous flair. Developers confirmed that changes will be made to enhance the performance and playability of Strongboxes in the future, acknowledging that they have fallen short.

One interesting addition to the game is the character Xesht, recognized as one of the formidable final bosses after completing a Breachstone. This fight can be quite intense, as Xesht unleashes a barrage of deadly attacks. Recent updates indicate that changes are being made to alleviate some concerns players have raised about this encounter.

The developers are also aware that players are seeking more than just fixes—they want a complete roadmap for upcoming features and balance adjustments. Grinding Gear Games has tentatively promised more information regarding patch updates soon, which should include a peek at what fans can expect next.

Stay tuned; more updates are on the horizon, and with them, hopefully, the promise of a more refined gameplay experience in Path of Exile 2.
