Breach
Breaches allow invaders from another world to access ours.

Unstable Breaches are a small tear in the fabric that will open for a short time. Kill Breach monsters to keep them open longer.
Once enough monsters have been killed, the Breach will stabalise, calling stronger monsters through the portal at the centre.
Kill these monsters in the centre will complete the Unstable Breach, closing the tear.

A Breach Hive is a tear that has already grown out of control. You will need the help of Ailith to close these.
With a blessing from Chayula, burn your way to the centre of the Hive and help Ailith start the process of destorying the centre.
As Ailith destroys the Hive, Breach monsters will pour in to try and kill her. Defend Ailith until she has completely destroyed the centre of the hive to remove it from existence.
If Ailith dies during this, the Hive will remain.

Breach

If you've played Path of Exile 1, you might be familiar with Breach. For Path of Exile 2, we've created sequels to several Path of Exile 1 leagues.

While the mechanic is familiar, the monsters, bosses, rewards, and progression all new.

A Breach is a tear in the fabric of reality. Opening it will allow you to see the demons and otherworldly monstrosities that lie in wait in this other plane of existence.

By engaging with a Breach, you'll create a bridge between their world and Wraeclast.

In order to keep the Breach open, you will need to kill the demons that pour forth. The faster you can kill the monsters,

the more monsters you will fight and the more loot you will find. You can also find clasped hands, that will open and drop more items if you run over them.

These can be a good boost to the rewards of the Breach, so keep an eye out.

Storyline
  • New Breach Storyline: Travel to the Monastery of the Keepers, the hallowed halls of the Keepers of the Flame, and discover The Genesis Tree, stolen from the enemy and gifted to the Keepers by the Dreamer himself. For more information see: https://pathofexile2.com/ancients#breach
  • There a new Hub Area, "The Monastery of the Keepers" to the south of your starting location on the atlas. The maps around this location all contain Breach encounters. Completing these maps gives you points for the Breach Atlas Tree.
  • The Breach Atlas Passive Tree has been completely revamped with many new nodes and existing nodes changed.
  • Starting a breach now shows a progress bar that indicates how long you have until the breach will close as well as how much time killing monsters is extending the life of the Breach.
  • Reaching 100% on this bar will begin a new mechanic: A Stabilised Breach. A stabilised breach will spawn new challenges at its starting point.
  • Added new Boss to Stabilised Breach: Vruun, Marshal of Xesht
  • Added new crafting System: The Genesis Tree
  • The Genesis Tree allows consuming of Wombgifts and Hiveblood to create Rings, Amulets, Belts and Currency.
  • Nodes on the Genesis Tree can be allocated to affect what items will be crafted
  • New Nodes are unlocked by using Wombgifts
  • Added 6 new Ring base types that can be exclusively crafted from the Genesis Tree
  • Added 4 new Amulet base types that can be exclusively crafted from the Genesis Tree
  • Added 4 new Belt base types that can be exclusively crafted from the Genesis Tree
  • Added a new set of Caster and Minion mods that can be crafted onto Rings and Belts using the Genesis Tree
  • Catalysts can no longer drop from Monsters, these are now solely obtained from the Genesis Tree.
  • Added a new set of 12 Catalysts that can add new quality modifiers to Jewels.
  • Killing monsters in a Breach now drops Hiveblood and Wombgifts and Breachstone Splinters.
  • Breachstone splinters turn into a special wombgift when fully stacked. This can be turned in at the Genesis Tree to create a Breachstone.
  • New Breach Domains now spawn on the Atlas. Using a Breachstone will reveal the maps inside the domain allowing you to enter them.
  • Maps inside the breach domain contain a new encounters: Breach Hives, Sky Hives and Sky Fortresses.
  • Breach Hives have a series of walls that can be burned by walking through them. Each wall destroyed will increase the number of monsters in the encounter which can be started in the center.
  • Sky Hives are a new area in which the Breachlords have constructed fortresses that you will need to assail. Sky hives contain a challenging multi-wave encounter in which you will need to defend Ailith while she closes the domain. Ailith will gain a series of abilities that can be triggered during the encounter with various effects.
  • Fortresses are a new area with a new pair of bosses, Tul and Esh. Defeating Tul and Esh will give you a key to access the existing Breach Pinnacle boss.
Catalysts

In Breach, you will find catalysts, items that can increase the quality of rings and amulets by improving specific mods.

You can also find Breach rings, a special base type that can have its quality improved by catalysts up to 50%. In this case, you could create a ring with around 170 life Breach rings can become some of the strongest rings in the game, giving you some good motivation to face the demon hordes. In addition, each endgame mechanic needs to have a pinnacle endgame encounter.

Breach Stone

While killing Breach monsters, you may find Breach Splinters. Collect enough of these and you'll be able to create a Breach Stone.

Realm Gate

Using a Vaal technology called the Realm Gate, you can use your Breach Stone to access their domain and bring the fight to them.

In this Twisted Domain, you will find nothing but a single massive Breach. Triggering it will reveal hordes of Breach inhabitants.

And should you be fast enough, you'll be able to fight their leader. Xesht, We Who Are One.

Now, this is just one of the pinnacle encounters of Path of Exile 2. We won't be showing you the rest of them, so you'll have to discover them for yourself.

But rest assured, this is some of the hardest content we've ever made. All these encounters have specific uniques that can only be found from them.

Atlas Tree: Breach

But that's not all. We still have the progression system. Defeating Xesht will give you points to allocate into the Breach section of the Atlas tree.

Allocating these points will make Breaches and the Breach domain even harder, but will give you more rewards.

The small nodes will increase the difficulty of the Twisted Domain, while the larger nodes will have more specific bonuses.

For example, this node adds more clasped hands to your Breaches and adds packs of magic monsters that can guard them.

Get some more points and you can allocate Waking Nightmare, which will double the number of splinters you get from clasped hands and inflict you with a mysterious debuff.

In order to earn more points, you will need to defeat Xesht at a higher difficulty, and some rewards from Xesht can only be found by increasing the difficulty of the Twisted Domain above certain thresholds. Defeating Xesht at difficulty four will be a challenge indeed, but there are many more threats in Wraeclast.
