Path of Exile 2 Necropolis League mechanics let you craft uniques by harvesting souls from corpses

The Path of Exile 2 Necropolis League mechanics will not be gated behind its own content island but will affect the entire world of Wraeclast. In the latest Challenge League, some monsters will be haunted by wrathful spirits, unleashing their ancient fury and sorrow onto the world.

Through the Lantern of Arimor item, you can manipulate which monsters are afflicted by the spirits and what modifiers will apply to them. Some of these monsters will spawn with 'Unresolved Anguish,' and slaying them lets you collect their corpses and store them in Necropolis.

The goal in exorcising these spirits is crafting. Their souls can be used to craft rare items with powerful affixes, and you can manipulate the type and magnitude of these affixes with an elaborate burial system.

On top of this, the Path of Exile Necropolis league also drops with the 3.24 update, which introduces two huge changes.

Firstly, there is a new level of endgame difficulty with Tier 17 maps, which is most likely shipping with a new Uber boss. Secondly, you get to unlock two additional Atlas Trees, essentially allowing three radically different builds on a single character.
