At ExileCon this November, we will be hosting competitive Path of Exile events live on the main stage. Both events will be the culmination of a series of four qualifier events where the best racers will compete for a spot in the finale.
For Path of Exile 1 qualifiers, we’ll announce the details later.
For Path of Exile 2, in each qualifier event, players will compete to be the first to defeat Tavakai in Act Four in a Solo Self-Found Runes of Aldur fixed layout environment. While this is not a Hardcore Event, players will incur a penalty upon death where they will not be able to move until a two and a half minute period has lapsed.
The qualifier events are PC only.
In order to join, click the "Join" button for the race in the Character Select screen. You'll then be prompted to create a character. Once you've spawned in, you won't be able to move your character until the race starts.
Path of Exile 2 Qualifier Event Times and Dates
- Qualifier One - August 6 2PM PDT
- Qualifier Two - August 13 2PM PDT
- Qualifier Three - August 20 2PM PDT
- Qualifier Four - August 27 2PM PDT
We suggest that you join the races early, as each race will start at the same time for all players.
