Checked against GGG's announcements on 2 Nov 2026, 14:30 UTC.

The PoE 3.30 patch notes are not out yet. For Mirage and Curse of the Allflame GGG posted the full notes two to three hours after the reveal stream, about eight days before launch. Covens of Umbra is revealed on 6 November at 12:30 PM PST, so the notes are likely the same evening, around 3 PM PST or 23:00 UTC. We add a short version here that night.

3.30 patch notes: where things stand

When will the 3.30 patch notes come out?

GGG has not given a time. The last two leagues followed the same pattern. Mirage: announcement at 19:00 UTC on 26 February 2026, patch notes at 22:00 UTC, launch eight days later. Curse of the Allflame: announcement at 20:56 UTC on 16 July, patch notes at 23:00 UTC, launch eight days later.

Covens of Umbra is revealed seven days before launch, one day closer than the last two, so the notes are unlikely to come later than usual. The table on this page shows 23:00 UTC on 6 November, three hours after the keynote starts, in your time zone. It is an estimate, not a GGG time.

What our summary will cover

We read the full notes and keep what changes your first weeks in the league: the league mechanic, Atlas and endgame changes, new and changed skill gems and supports, ascendancy changes, items and crafting, and quality-of-life changes.

Each part gets a few lines in our own words and a pointer to the matching section of GGG's notes. It is a summary, not a copy: when the detail matters, read the source.

Hotfixes and later patches

Patch notes are only the start. Mirage received 15 hotfixes in its first four days and the 3.28.0b patch on day five. Curse of the Allflame got 3.29.0b three days after launch and 3.29.1 six days after.

We note the fixes that change the league mechanic or the Atlas, with the date GGG posted them.

Where to read the full notes

GGG posts them on its forum, in the patch notes section of pathofexile.com. We link the exact thread on this page as soon as it exists.
