It’s finally happening! The ExileCon Path of Exile 1 Qualifiers kick off next week, with the top racers from all four qualifier events earning the chance to compete in the live final at ExileCon in New Zealand.
The competition will take place on the following dates, with ZiggyD and Raiz once again serving as your hosts throughout the event:
Path of Exile 1 Qualifier Event Times and Dates
- Qualifier One - September 4 2PM PDT
- Qualifier Two - September 11 2PM PDT
- Qualifier Three - September 18 2PM PDT
- Qualifier Four - September 25 2PM PDT
If you're participating in the event, please make sure that your Path of Exile account is linked to your Twitch account. You can do this by logging into your account on the website, then clicking here.
To join a qualifier event, click the "Join" button for the race on the Character Select screen. You'll then be prompted to create a character. Once you've entered the game, your character will remain stationary until the race officially begins.
Players will compete to be the first to kill Kitava in Act 5 in a Standard Solo Self-Found fixed-seed environment. While this is not a Hardcore event, players will incur a penalty upon death and will be unable to move until one minute has elapsed.
The qualifier events are PC only.
You can find the full ruleset here.
Be sure to join us at twitch.tv/pathofexile to check out all the action! New Twitch Drops will be available for viewers, and we’ll announce them next week.
Good luck, Exiles!
