Are you having trouble getting Shaper- or Elder-influenced gears? If so, you’d want to download the latest update for Path of Exile. That’s because Kirac now offers influenced maps as part of his Atlas Missions. This is a great way for you to finally get that piece of influenced gear you need to complement your build.
Kirac now has his own set of Atlas Missions since the Siege of the Atlas expansion was launched. To access them, all you have to do is talk to Kirac or go directly to your Map Device.
Patch 3.17.1b implements some needed bug fixes as well. Those who are new to the game must know that you can only open maps when you’re in your hideout. That said, the latest update fixes the issue where you are unable to start a Kirac Mission in your hideout if you’re in a party, but you’re not the party leader.
Did you have difficulties interacting with chests? If so, that was also caused by a bug. Fortunately, this has now been resolved.
