It's just about to become 2014 in New Zealand, so we've decided to post a short retrospective on what has been the most exciting year of Path of Exile's history. PoE's success in 2013 is almost entirely due to our amazing community. Your patience, support, feedback and dedication have allowed us to grow Path of Exile into the game we always wanted it to be. Thank you for an amazing year - we're looking forward to making 2014 even better!

In 2013:

• Path of Exile evolved from Closed Beta to Open Beta (late January) and then to full Release (late October).
  
• We deployed 87 patches, ran over 1000 race events, posted 286 daily deals and 222 news posts.
  
• Grinding Gear Games expanded from 20 people to 55! While our core development team doubled in size (to 35) we also scaled up our customer support department by a factor of ten.
  
• We had three sets of supporter packs for sale at different times during 2013 (the tail end of the Closed Beta packs, the Open Beta packs and the current Release packs.
  
• Over 3.7 million new players signed up to play Path of Exile.
  
• We hit a peak of almost 70,000 people playing Path of Exile at the same time. We expect to beat this record as we localise the game to more countries next year!
  
• We had the pleasure of meeting several hundred fans at meetups in various countries.
  
• Zero Unique Fish were caught.
  
• 1 in every 500 people alive visited www.pathofexile.com.
  
• Path of Exile won numerous awards including GameSpot's 2013 PC Game of the Year.

Have a great New Year, guys. Thanks again for everything.

Pilots! Get Ready! There will be something cool later this day! Wait for further announcements!

The Punisher of Shadows: Sakra Devanam



It’s almost 2014 Elpeeps and during this New Year’s we’re bringing you an exciting and much anticipated content update for Ara Haan lovers! Enter the Punisher of Shadows – Sakra Devanam, Ara’s new 2nd Job Class.

The Story

Ara throughout her experience through battle soon realizes that even the most kindred of hearts can be easily corrupted by the powers of the Dark El. A prime example of this is her Brother Aren (Ran) who she continues to look for.

During her journey in Fieta, Ara becomes the Punisher of Shadows, meaning she lays judgment (and a can of whoop tush) on the demon forces, thus bringing justice to Elrios. Witnessing the efforts of Ara’s strength, the spiritual nine-tail fox Eun proclaims her the new title of Sakra Devanam—‘the legendary god that ruled the heavens’- and granting her heavenly powers to boot.



Master of the Tiger Arts – SD’s New Moves

Benefits! So becoming Sakra Devanam has some major improvements that Little Hsien does not have. My favorite… The Tiger Arts… Rawr… which is much easier to perform than the Dragon Art Combo. All you have to do is press about 4 special attacks in sequential order.

Suggestion! It gets even easier… Put the first skill (Rock Smash) in one of you SP slots and hit it four times… Done. You learned quickly young grasshopper, for you have mastered the Tiger Arts.



More perks? Yes there is. Another favorite of ours… Auto block attacks with Quicken Guard. But don’t fritter your SP points as we have… ;-)



ItemMall Goodies

And after partying hard on New Year’s you’re going to have to crash out… And why not do it in style? New Pajama Costumes arrive in the ItemMall. Sleep Tight Elpeeps! Plus bronies can enjoy this new accessory from an event!
