3 exciting events are coming to Path of Exile in November 2023! We've got Krangled Passives, Blast from the Past (Sentinel & Lake of Kalandra), and Shifting Stones running for 7 days each. There's a variety of prizes including Mystery Boxes, randomly drawn microtransactions, and exclusive hideout statues for top players.
Krangled Passives
On November 3rd, players can dive into the Krangled Passives league where you can only see passive or Ascendancy skills which are adjacent to the ones you have allocated.
The Passive Skill Tree and all Ascendancy Trees are jumbled. Minor passive skills, notables, keystones, minor ascendancy skills and major ascendancy skills have been internally scrambled within those categories (so a notable passive is still a notable passive, just a random one). All players have the same trees. The Scion is not available in this event.
Krangled Information
- Start date: 2pm November 3rd PDT which is Nov 03, 2023 5:00 PM (EDT)
- End date: 2pm November 10th PST which is Nov 10, 2023 5:00 PM (EST)
- Based on: Ancestor League
- Not voided - characters and items will migrate into the Ancestor League afterwards. The passive tree will be respecced upon migrating.
- You lose 5x experience upon death.
- Platforms: PC and Console

Blast from the Past
On November 10th, players get to experience content from 2 previous Path of Exile leagues, Sentinel and Lake of Kalandra.
Harness the power of ancient Sentinels and explore the mysterious Lake of Kalandra! The Blast from the Past event offers you an opportunity to return to these Path of Exile leagues from the past or experience them for the first time in case you missed them.
In this event, almost every Path of Exile area has both the Sentinel and Kalandra mechanics active. For more information on how these leagues work, check out the Challenge League sections in the patch notes here and here.
By the way, this event is not voided, so have fun crafting with Recombinators!
The event not being voided has some pretty interesting implications for standard players. You'll be able to farm Recombinators during the event, then take them to standard along with your op items like +1 Power Charge rings.

- Start date: 2pm November 10th PST which is Nov 10, 2023 5:00 PM (EST)
- End date: 2pm November 17th PST which is Nov 17, 2023 5:00 PM (EST)

Event FAQ
Players had questions about the Path of Exile November Events, and GGG has answers so here are some of the frequently asked questions about the upcoming events. Player questions appear above, and then GGG's answers are below in the quotation.
Will these events run on all platforms?
Yes.
Are there Hardcore versions of these events?
No.
Can I play my existing character?
No, you'll need to make new characters in each event.
How do I join the event?
At the character selection screen, there's a panel below your characters which will list the events available. You can join the event by clicking 'join'. This option becomes available 30 minutes before the event is set to begin. Your character won't be able to move until the event starts.
Can I make Private League versions of these events?
No.
Can I change my Ascendancy Class during these events?
Yes.
If I delete my character, will I still get a prize?
No. Please do not delete your characters until after the prizes have been awarded.
If I level multiple characters will I have a greater chance of winning a prize?
Yes. Every character you level will be independently included in the pool for the prize draw at the end of the event. This excludes mystery boxes, where you will only be able to receive two per account.
Can I win more than one microtransaction prize?
Yes, it's possible to win multiple prizes. This excludes the mystery box which is awarded twice per account. You only need to reach level 50 in two of the events to receive the free mystery box. This can be found in your microtransaction stash once awarded.
When will I receive a prize?
The Ancestor Mystery Boxes will be awarded automatically. Other microtransactions and hideout statues will be awarded after the end of the event. You'll receive a private message on the website to notify you when this has happened. Note that outside of the Mystery Box and hideout statues, prizes are drawn randomly and are not necessarily guaranteed. We'll post on our X to confirm when the final prizes have gone out.
Will I be able to access the Trial of the Ancestors during the events?
The Trial of the Ancestors is enabled only in the Krangled event.
What happens if I already have all of the microtransactions from the Ancestor Mystery Box?
If you already own the entire Ancestor Mystery Box series, you'll instead be awarded with two Apollyon Mystery Boxes per Ancestor Box earned. If you reach level 50 in two events, you will receive four Apollyon Mystery Boxes.
Are the randomly drawn microtransaction prize pools shared across platforms?
The randomly-drawn microtransaction prize pool for each event is shared across PC/Console.
