PoE Tier 17 Maps Mods: Purple Tier Maps

A Tier 17 Map, also known as T17 or uber map, is a special type of map found in the endgame system related to the Atlas of Worlds. Tier 17 maps act as bridge between regular Atlas/endgame boss content and uber pinnacle boss content. Instead of a white, yellow, or red engraving icon to indicate the map's tier, the icon itself is purple.

List of Tier 17 Maps

There are five new Tier 17 Maps in total.

The fifth slot in the Map Device is now unlocked upon completing a non-Valdo's Tier 17 Map.

We are adding a new tier of Maps, Tier 17 Maps, which not only give you access to the Uber Pinnacle content, but will also test your characters in new ways. They feature a new set of bosses, uber monsters and a new tier of modifiers.

Tier 17 map drops & rewards

  • The Cosmic Wounds, Memento Mori, Thirst for Knowledge, Insatiable Appetite, Throw the Gauntlet, and The Perfect Storm Atlas Keystone Passives have been removed. Instead, we have added a new set of fragments that can be used to access the Uber Pinnacle Bosses. These fragments can be obtained from the new Tier 17 Maps we’re also introducing with this patch. Not only do these Maps give you access to the Uber Pinnacle content, they also test your characters in new ways. These feature a new set of Bosses, Uber Monsters, and a new tier of modifiers that can roll on Maps.
  • There are five new Tier 17 Maps in total. For each of their bosses, an existing unique item has been removed from the core drop pool, and now exclusively has a chance to drop from these bosses. These unique items have been rebalanced to be fitting rewards for the content:
  • The Dark Seer Unique Sceptre now has +2 to Level of All Spell Skill Gems, +1-2 Maximum Mana per Level (previously +1), +1-2 Maximum Energy Shield per Level (previously +1), and It no longer has 40-60% increased Global Damage. A Divine Orb can be used to obtain the updated values on existing items. Enemies Blinded by you have Malediction (previously Enemies Blinded while you are Blinded), this change applies to existing items.
  • The Malachai’s Endurance, Frenzy and Power Buffs from the Malachai’s Mark Unique Gloves now give a 10% chance to grant an Endurance, Frenzy or Power Charge on Hit respectively (previously 20% chance to grant an Endurance, Frenzy, or Power Charge on Kill respectively). This change affects existing items.
  • The Manastorm Unique Shield now has 1-100% increased Mana Recovery from Flasks, and Gain 1-100 Mana per Enemy Killed. It also now has +1-100 to Maximum Mana (previously +50-70), 1-100% increased Mana Regeneration Rate (previously 30-50%), and no longer has 80-120% increased Energy Shield. When you Cast a Spell, it now Sacrifices all Mana to gain Added Maximum Lightning Damage equal to 50% of Sacrificed Mana for 4 seconds (previously equal to 25%). A Divine Orb can be used on existing items to obtain the updated Lightning Damage equal to a percentage of Sacrificed Mana value.
  • The Wraithlord Unique Helmet now has 4 Abyssal Sockets, +1 to maximum number of Spectres per socketed Ghastly Eye Jewel (previously +2 to maximum number of Spectres), and +1-2 to Level of all Minion Skill Gems (previously +2 to Level of Socketed Minion Gems). These changes do not apply to existing items, and cannot be obtained with a Divine Orb.
  • The Yoke of Suffering Unique Amulet now has Enemies take 5-10% increased Damage for each type of Ailment you have inflicted on them (previously 5%). Existing items can be updated to the new values using a Divine Orb.
  • Uber Pinnacle Bosses now also have completely distinct Unique Item drop pools from their non-Uber counterparts, providing a reason to farm both versions.
  • We’ve also made a few tweaks to the Uber Pinnacle Boss fights so their difficulties are more balanced with one another.
  • In order to challenge the Uber version of Pinnacle Bosses, you must now successfully defeat their non-Uber version.
  • Place five of the same Fragment in the Map Device to challenge the relevant Uber Pinnacle Boss, and you no longer need to worry about arranging the fragments in the right order!
  • The fifth slot in the Map Device is now unlocked upon completing a non-Valdo’s Tier 17 Map.
  • Awakening Fragment
  • Blazing Fragment
  • Cosmic Fragment
  • Decaying Fragment
  • Devouring Fragment
  • Reality Fragment
  • Synthesising Fragment

Affected by Atlas Passive Tree

Tier 17 Maps in Path of Exile: Necropolis League are indeed affected by your Atlas Passive Tree. Here's why Tier 17 maps benefit from the Atlas Passive Tree:

  • Official Confirmation: There have been confirmations from the developers themselves, including forum posts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZZHYgDoam8 stating that Tier 17 maps are influenced by the Atlas Passive Tree.
  • Necropolis League Focus: The Necropolis League introduces the new Tier 17 maps, and the Atlas Passive Tree received an overhaul to better support the new league mechanics. It wouldn't make much sense for the highest tier maps to be entirely separate from the system designed to shape endgame content.

So, you can utilize the Atlas Passive Tree to enhance your Tier 17 map runs, potentially increasing rewards, difficulty, or other aspects based on your chosen passives.

Tier 17 Map Improvements 3.24.0b Patch Notes

  • Tier 17 Maps can now be modified by Chaos Orbs.
  • Increased the Item Quantity and Item Rarity bonuses provided by Modifiers on Tier 17 Maps.
  • We've also added various Divination Cards that can be found in Tier 17 Maps, in order to provide more a choice in which to farm:
  • Despite only just moving The Void Divination Card to drop from The Shaper, The Elder and The Maven in 3.24.0, Tier 17 Maps are a better home for this card. As such, The Void is now only found in the Abomination, Citadel, Fortress, Sanctuary, and Ziggurat Maps. It no longer has a chance to drop from The Shaper, The Elder, or The Maven.
  • The Artist Divination Card is now only found in the Abomination Map, and the Harmony of Souls Divination Card can now also be found in the Abomination Map.
  • The Shieldbearer and Wealth and Power Divination Cards are now only found in the Citadel Map.
  • The Dragon's Heart and The Cheater Divination Cards are now only found in the Fortress Map.
  • The Succor of the Sinless Divination Card is now only found in the Sanctuary Map, and The Innocent Divination Card can now also be found in the Sanctuary Map.
  • The Samurai's Eye and Lucky Deck Divination Cards are now only found in the Ziggurat Map.
  • Nightmare of the Depraved Trinity, the Abomination Map Boss, has had the cooldown for their Ball Lightning skill increased. The damage of their Bladefall and Storm Call skills has also been reduced

Introduction:

  • Tier 17 Maps represent the highest map tier currently available.
  • They offer access to challenging "Uber Pinnacle" content and test your character’s capabilities.
  • New features include unique bosses, powerful monsters, and exclusive map modifiers.

Mechanics:

  • Area Level: Tier 17 Maps have a base area level of 84, facilitating the acquisition of high item level (ilvl) 85-86 item bases needed for crafting powerful modifiers.
  • Visual Distinction: These maps are identified by a unique purple icon, differentiating them from regular white, yellow, or red tier maps.
  • Unmodifiable: Tier 17 Maps cannot be crafted using crafting benches. However, you can enhance them with map fragments or options available when opening the map in the map device.
  • Modifiers: These maps can roll some standard map modifiers while also having their own pool of exclusive affixes, potentially increasing difficulty or rewards.
  • Atlas Passive Tree Uncertain: It’s unclear whether the Atlas Passive Tree effects apply to Tier 17 Maps.
  • Monster Integration: Tier 17 Maps feature specific monster packs based on past league mechanics (like Heist or Expedition). These monsters might retain some mechanics from their original league (e.g., Expedition monsters with Ward).
  • Uber Bosses: Tier 17 Map bosses are "uber" versions of existing bosses from previous leagues. Examples include The Unbreakable or Uhtred, Covetous Traitor.
  • Unique Rewards: Each Uber Boss has the potential to drop an exclusive unique item, alongside map fragments required to access the Uber Pinnacle boss encounter.

Overall Impact:

Tier 17 Maps introduce a significant endgame challenge for Path of Exile players. They offer opportunities for acquiring powerful gear and unique items while battling formidable enemies with potentially reworked mechanics. The uncertain interaction with the Atlas Passive Tree adds another layer of intrigue, as players experiment with strategies to conquer these maps.
