PoE Portals to Area close over time

Portals to Area close over time: One portal closes every 90 seconds.

Here's a clarification:

  • Standard PoE Portals: In the base Path of Exile game, portals themselves don't have a set timer that closes them based solely on time.

  • Portal Timeouts: As mentioned previously, portals do have timeouts, but these are triggered by inactivity, not a fixed timer. If you leave the map instance (return to your hideout or another area) for an extended period, the portal will eventually close. This timeout varies depending on where you opened the portal:

    • Hideout: Portals opened from your hideout can last a significant amount of time, with estimates ranging from 10 minutes to several hours.
    • Town: Portals opened from a town location likely have a shorter timeout, potentially around 5-10 minutes.
  • Valdo's Puzzle Box: The mechanic you might be thinking of could be related to the unique item "Valdo's Puzzle Box." This item creates a special map zone with its own mechanics. Within Valdo's Puzzle Box:

    • Area Becomes Lethal: The area does indeed become increasingly dangerous over time.
    • Portal Closing: However, portals to Valdo's Puzzle Box function normally and don't close based on a timer. The danger comes from the zone itself, not the portal.
