Path Of Exile Will Now Save Your Spot In A Party When You Get Disconnected

At one time or another, you’ve probably experienced getting disconnected while you’re all partied up in your favorite MMO and tried to frantically log back in before they can give your spot to someone else. For Path of Exile players, that’s one less problem to worry about with the release of yesterday’s patch.

You’ll now have two minutes to get back into the game when you get disconnected before you’re booted from the party. Switching to a different character, however, will result in an automatic kick. In addition, any pending party invites that you had when you went offline will still be there when you come back.

The latest game update also introduced over 800 new foiled unique items to be earned from the Voidborn Reliquary, the ability to “Spectre” certain Sanctum monsters to make them more challenging, various improvements to targeting behavior, and a whole host of bug fixes, the details of which can be found in the full patch notes on the Path of Exile official forums.
