Blight AI Guides

Path of Exile (PoE) is known for its diverse and intricate league mechanics, with Blight being one of the most unique. The Blight league introduces a tower defense-style gameplay element, where players must defend against waves of monsters corrupted by a fungal growth known as the Blight. This guide will provide an overview of Blight mechanics and strategies to maximize your rewards.

Overview of Blight

The Blight mechanic involves defending a pump from waves of monsters that travel along fixed paths. These monsters are influenced by fungal growths and seek to destroy the pump. Players can build towers to help fend off these waves, adding a strategic layer to the typical PoE combat.

Blight Encounters

Blight encounters can be found in maps and other areas throughout Wraeclast. When a Blight encounter begins, Sister Cassia, an NPC who guides players through Blight content, activates a pump connected to fungal growths. These growths sprout tendrils that serve as paths for the approaching monsters.

Blight encounters aren’t random occurrences. You can trigger them in three ways:

  • Atlas Passives: Invest in specific Atlas passives to increase the chance of Blight encounters appearing in your maps.
  • Blighted Maps: Run specially crafted maps guaranteed to contain a Blight encounter.
  • Blight Scarabs: Use these consumable items to guarantee a Blight encounter in a regular map.

Key Features of Blight Encounters

  1. Paths and Towers: Monsters follow pre-determined paths to the pump. Players can build towers along these paths to impede and destroy the monsters.
  2. Towers: There are various types of towers, each with unique effects, such as slowing, stunning, or dealing elemental damage to monsters.
  3. Monster Portals: Each path originates from a portal that continuously spawns monsters until the encounter is completed.

Building and Upgrading Towers

Towers are crucial for success in Blight encounters. Players can build and upgrade towers using resources gathered during the encounter. The types of towers include:

  1. Chilling Towers: Slow down monsters, making them easier to manage.
  2. Shock Towers: Apply shock, increasing the damage monsters take.
  3. Fireball Towers: Deal fire damage to monsters within range.
  4. Meteor Towers: Deal massive damage to monsters in a larger area.
  5. Summoning Towers: Summon minions to fight against the monsters.

Upgrading towers increases their effectiveness and can add new abilities. Balancing the placement and types of towers is key to managing the waves efficiently.

Managing Blight Monsters

Blight monsters have unique properties and resistances, requiring players to adapt their strategies. Some key considerations include:

  1. Monster Types: Different types of monsters have varying resistances and abilities. Understanding these differences is crucial for tower selection.
  2. Bosses: Some encounters feature powerful bosses with high health and dangerous abilities. Prioritizing these bosses is essential to prevent them from reaching the pump.

Rewards

Successfully defending the pump in a Blight encounter rewards players with various loot, including:

  1. Blighted Maps: Special maps that contain a Blight encounter throughout the entire map.
  2. Oils: Used to anoint items, granting powerful passive abilities.
  3. Blight Uniques: Unique items with special properties related to the Blight mechanic.
  4. Currency and Other Loot: Standard loot such as currency items, equipment, and maps.

Blighted Maps

Blighted Maps are a special type of map where the Blight encounter covers the entire map. These maps provide an intense and rewarding challenge, with multiple Blight pumps and numerous paths to defend.

Anointing Items

Oils are a unique reward from Blight encounters that can be used to anoint items. Anointing involves combining three oils to apply a passive skill or other modifiers to rings, amulets, and Blighted maps. The effects of the anointment depend on the combination of oils used.

Types of Anointments:

  1. Rings: Enhance towers during Blight encounters.
  2. Amulets: Grant notable passives from the skill tree.
  3. Blighted Maps: Add modifiers to Blighted Maps, increasing their difficulty and rewards.

Strategies for Success

To maximize your success in Blight encounters, consider the following strategies:

  1. Tower Placement: Place towers strategically along paths to cover as much area as possible. Use slowing and stunning towers near the beginning of paths to control the flow of monsters.
  2. Resource Management: Use your resources wisely to build and upgrade towers. Focus on critical paths and high-damage towers for tough waves.
  3. Adaptability: Be prepared to adjust your tower placements and upgrades based on the types of monsters and their resistances.
  4. Focus Fire: Prioritize bosses and other high-threat monsters to prevent them from reaching the pump.

Conclusion

The Blight mechanic in Path of Exile offers a unique blend of action and strategy, challenging players to defend against waves of corrupted monsters. By understanding the mechanics, building and upgrading towers effectively, and adapting your strategy to the threats you face, you can master Blight encounters and reap the rich rewards they offer. Dive into the fungal chaos, defend the pump, and uncover the treasures that lie within the Blight. Happy defending, Exiles!
