Path of Exile - German translation in the new patch

The newest Path of Exile In addition to bug fixes and changes to Specter builds, Patch 3.02 also brought a special surprise in the form of a first German localization.

Added initial French, German and Spanish language support for Path of Exile. If you can read these languages, please try them out and let us know your feedback!

It's not yet a complete translation, so far only the texts have been translated into German, the speech output of the NPCs is still missing. In some places, the wording is still a bit bumpy, but for this reason the developers ask for appropriate feedback and suggestions for improvement.

For those who have been deterred by the complexity and the English explanations so far from taking a look at Path of Exile, this is the ideal time FreeToPlay Action RPG to watch.

Path of Exile - Specter / Schemen Builds

The second big change in the patch is one Quality of Life Improvements that players have long been hoping for:

Your Specters and Auras are now saved when you log out or are disconnected.
Specters no longer have their level reduced to the level of the area they are in. Instead, the level of a Specter is now based on the lowest of either the level of the monster they were raised from, or the maximum level allowed by the skill according to used. This is now indicated on the skill according to

The sworn Specter or Scheme in the German version and Auras, are now also retained when logging out or disconnecting. This saves a lot of time for some characters as it was a bit tedious to activate 7 auras or conjure 10+ schemes every time.

The level of the summoned schemes has also been changed, previously this was reduced according to the level of the current zone. From now on it depends on the minimum level of the awakened creatures or on the level of the skill gem.

There are also 2 new Uniques: Malachai's Mark and Dialla's Malefaction.
