Path of Exile Harvest Challenge Guide: Comprehensive List of Challenges
The Harvest League in Path of Exile introduces 40 new challenges, offering players exclusive microtransaction rewards and the opportunity to earn pieces of the Harvest Totem Pole Hideout decoration. By completing these challenges, players can not only gain unique in-game items but also accumulate valuable PoE currency, enhancing their overall gaming experience.
Harvest Challenge Rewards
Each set of 12 challenges completed in the Harvest League rewards you with a distinctive Harvest microtransaction:
- 12 Challenges: Earn the Harvest Footprints Effect.
- 24 Challenges: Obtain the Harvest Cloak.
- 36 Challenges: Unlock the Harvest Portal Effect.
- 40 Challenges: Receive a totem piece for your hideout.
Four Weeks of Harvest Challenge Statistics
- 16.3% of players have completed 12 challenges, earning the Harvest Footprints Effect.
- 1.68% have conquered 24 challenges, securing the Harvest Cloak.
- 0.38% achieved 36 challenges, unlocking the Harvest Portal Effect.
Compared to the Delirium league, a slight decrease in players achieving 12 and 24 challenges is observed. However, the number completing at least 36 challenges is notably higher in Harvest (0.38%) compared to Delirium (0.23%). The introduction of the portal effect as a reward for completing 36 challenges in Harvest, a feature absent in Delirium, is likely influencing these completion rates.
