When the Archnemesis League ends, the current items available in Kirac's Vault Pass will be permanently locked away and replaced with new, exclusive cosmetic effects alongside the launch of Sentinel. If you've missed it, Kirac's Vault Pass is also now available on consoles. Their items will be replaced alongside Sentinel's console launch on May 18th (PDT). Check out the unique item skins in the video below or get your Pass here.
This is also your last chance to purchase the Archnemesis Brimmed Hat! If you want to show your support for the league, be sure to check it out in the store, which you can access in game by pressing 'M'.

Last week, we shared a teaser for the upcoming Sentinel expansion, which we'll be revealing the full details of during an exclusive livestream over on Twitch next week. We've seen lots of interesting theories from the community based on the teaser so wanted to take a moment to share in some of your excitement and speculations! Check out the community reactions below.
There are two pairs of Scourge Supporter Packs available in the store; the Liege Supporter Pack and the Dread Supporter Pack. Each of the two pairs is designed in its own style with different contents, so you can choose whichever you prefer; or if you can’t decide, you can get both! If you have previously purchased a smaller pack, you have the option to upgrade to a larger one. All of the microtransactions included in the Supporter Packs are exclusive and will not be available in the store again.
If you're interested in getting one of the Scourge Supporter Packs but you're not sure you'll be able to do so in time, we'd recommend setting up a payment plan which can reserve a pack for you for up to three months after the commencement of your plan. Just email us in advance at support@grindinggear.com; we'll be happy to help you!
Additionally, if you have purchased any plain points packs since October 13th 2021 (PDT), you can use this in an upgrade to one of the Scourge Supporter Packs! You can credit up to 80% of the value of your desired supporter pack towards an upgrade. You'd then receive the remainder of the contents of the pack, excluding the points you already purchased before the upgrade.
The Scourge Supporter Packs will be replaced with the new ones on consoles alongside the launch Path of Exile: Sentinel.
During the livestream reveal of our upcoming Sentinel expansion on May 5th PDT, you'll be able to earn the Rapture Wings with Twitch Drops, so don't forget to link your Path of Exile account with your Twitch account!

You will get the Rapture Wings after 45 minutes of accumulated watch time on any channel streaming Path of Exile during the event. This means that the drop is guaranteed for everyone who has watched any Path of Exile stream for this amount of time. This promotion is available for all accounts.
