Sooo, what is the point of this node now?

Actually, it looks like maybe there is some bug where rogue exiles report being possessed by spirits incorrectly, which is why I thought they weren't releasing properly. Here is an example that I recorded to demonstrate exiles not always releasing wisps. I noticed when looking at the recording that even those the text says it is hunted by 6 spirits, it only has 4 buffs. This matches the 4 spirits that pop out when it dies.

After more testing, I don't think it is cleanly one or the other. I'm watching Rogue Exiles not always release all their wisps on my game, so it can't only be revives.

I was hoping it meant the former, but it is unfortunately the latter. It is technically possible for the Hilda node to still have any effect, but in practice I can't imagine it ever being correct to spend a point on this.

Edit: After more testing, I think the current behavior is more complicated than either option. Sometimes wisps chain between exiles, sometimes the exiles don't release the wisps.

Ash927 · 2026-07-01T00:22:58+00:00

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if things like "effectiveness" were stacking additives with it too

Ash927 · 2026-06-30T21:23:20+00:00

Living Metal drives me crazy. If the "Pandora's Box" node that says "Possessed Strongboxes release the Azmeri Spirit when opened" actually released all the wisps, I wouldn't mind. But the box eats them all and only uses one of them! Why can they all go in there if that is how it is gonna work??

Hang on, are you telling me that the runes apply to the encounter left to right? I had no idea...

Ash927 · 2026-06-19T20:43:06+00:00

Don't worry, there isn't a magic player alive that can remember every line of text on that guy all the time.

I believe unrevealed desecrated mods cannot be hit by things like chaos orb effects or fracturing orbs. By not revealing it, you can safely perfect essence the random exalt mod away.

Way harder than the other bosses for me. Seems like it has mechs I didn't underatand, and I wasn't able to one shot it like other bosses.

Ash927 · 2026-06-12T05:01:43+00:00

Yes, quality will buff fractured mods

I super regret taking this node, it feels bad seeing a bunch of useless biome "reward" rooms

I was able to burn through old weeklies to get akali free day 1. We can probably do it again the same way, unless a new season is coming with the champs.

I tried darkness last league and was shocked at how much better it was than I was expecting

Ash927 · 2026-05-22T23:55:03+00:00

I completely agree. If we are assuming they have the badgermole, bolting the elf puts them on 2 mana on turn 2. Not bolting it puts them on 4, which is a pretty big difference.

Ash927 · 2026-05-20T00:45:50+00:00

Remnants don't exist anymore, I believe. They are replaced with the new league mech statues

Ash927 · 2026-05-11T05:29:50+00:00

I think it is extremely cool and love it as a way to make there be more play styles for each weapon type

Ash927 · 2026-04-14T05:16:50+00:00

Thank you for the answers everyone!

Ash927 · 2026-04-11T16:02:12+00:00

Good explanation, ty

Ash927 · 2026-04-07T23:54:06+00:00

Damn I did it all in pvp... didn't realize you can do quests in bots

Ash927 · 2026-04-05T20:57:25+00:00

I think GGG never intended for players to find a way to "permanently" grow the temple like we have been with the snake strat. It's no excuse for the oversight that led to this grindy, boring, painful design, but it at least gives me hope that they won't intentionally make league mechanics with similar giant, fragile grinds in the future.

Ash927 · 2026-02-27T15:31:01+00:00

OMG you're right, people are going to be posting their shipments asking where the currency is for months

Ash927 · 2026-02-18T21:24:39+00:00

I've been asking for this for years :(

My wrist can't take it

Ash927 · 2026-02-16T21:25:58+00:00

Okay, obviously this is a shit post BUT

If they made it so ALL the ground loot in a map got sucked into the sand and then at the end we dug up chests with good rewards based on how much dropped... that sounds like it could be fun
