📜 Patch 0.2.0h Preview – Quality of Life, Endgame Touchups, and New Toys

Exiles! GGG is rolling out Path of Exile 2 patch 0.2.0h sometime next week, and it’s looking like a smooth pour of fixes, polish, and long-requested features. I know many players disliked this PoE2 league (judging by the overwhelmingly negative reviews on Steam and the negative comments on every single post GGG makes) but the updates have been great. This one is no exception:

⚔️ Endgame Just Got Less… Breach-y

  • Breaches are getting buffed: More monsters, longer duration, and fewer “tiny annoying splinter stacks.” Instead, we’re getting fewer, fatter stacks. Yes please.
  • Rogue Exile visibility is improving—no more squinting in dark corners to find that rare spawn.
  • Double Wisp interactions are also getting cleaned up. Expect less chaos, more “ooh, that’s nice.”

🛠️ Quality of Life Goodies

  • New UI icons let you use currency directly on Strongboxes and Essences—no more dragging Vaal Orbs from the depths of your inventory.
  • Item Filter Love: You’ll soon be able to filter Unidentified Magic and Rare item tiers (T1–T5). Custom filters rejoice!

đź§ł New Stash Tabs Incoming

I for one love organizing my stash, it gives me a weird sort of enjoyment – like doing dishes.

  • Ritual Tab: Your Omens and “Audience with the King” stuff finally gets a home.
  • Socketable Tab: Runes, Talismans, and Soul Cores now chill together. Bonus: You can upgrade Runes right inside the tab. Slick.

👥 Private Leagues Are Back!

  • Launching via the PoE1 site (for now), Private Leagues will go live with 0.2.0h. No custom mods yet, but if you’re looking to play with your crew or start fresh, this is your time.


💬 We’ll have more details early next week—stay tuned, and keep your stash tidy. You can check out the official post here.
