What is the Necropolis League Mechanic?
In the Necropolis League, the wrathful spirits have begun to haunt the monsters of Wraeclast, unleashing their ancient fury and sorrow onto the world. The Undertaker provides you with the Lantern of Arimor, a powerful family heirloom which illuminates the spirits haunting monsters throughout Wraeclast. With it, the Undertaker hopes to employ you to rid Wraeclast of this menace – and further his cryptic cause.
The Lantern of Arimor
When playing the Necropolis League players will come across the Lantern of Arimor that is provided by the Undertaker. When you peer through the Lantern you can examine the Spirits that haunt Wreaclast. The Lantern will allow you to manipulate the Spirits and configure which monsters they haunt. Take your time with your decisions as the Spirits are not forgiving!
Bury the Dead
In the Necropolis league players come across the cemetery where the Undertaker performs mysterious soul experiments into powerful items. Take the corpses of haunted monsters to the Necropolis and bury them in the many graves of the cemetery. When you exorcise them you forge items from their souls.
Perform Powerful Exorcisms
When you bury the many Haunted monsters strategically you can get a vast combination of different crafting modifiers to Exorcise them for the perfect item. You can also create new Unique items by Exorcising family members of famous Eternal Empire bloodlines.
Powerful Foes Beget Powerful rewards
Defeating Haunted monsters causes you to find areas with monsters that are blessed by Devoted Spirits. Devoted Spirits cause monsters to grant you a wide variety of different rewards, such as dropping more and better items, spawning Shrines that grant buffs, and allowing you to find an NPC that gives you a Unique Item.
The Necropolis expansion also introduces 14 new Unique Items, 5 of which are exclusive to the Necropolis League.

Embers of the Allflame
In the Necropolis League, you can find special monster packs that are trapped within Embers of the Allflame. When you place these in the Lantarn of Arimor you will encounter abnormal monsters that have special rewards.
Face a new tier of Endgame Difficulty
In the Necropolis League, we will see a new tier of Endgame Difficulty that will test your characters in new ways by conquering Tier 17 Maps. These new maps have also a new set of Bosses, many more powerful monsters, new layouts and new rewards. You can access the absolute pinnacle of Path of Exile’s most difficult bosses by completing these maps and proving your worth as the hero of Wreaclast.
Unlock Additional Atlas Trees
