## Key points

- Path of Exile 2’s 1.0 release is due on 11 December.
- A new recap will show damage taken and mitigation.
- Developers may add it to the first game if demand is strong.

## Summary

Path of Exile 2 is getting a death recap in its 1.0 release on 11 December, giving players a clearer account of what killed their characters. Game director Jonathan Rogers said the feature is intended to help players identify weaknesses in their builds and give feedback about monsters whose damage may be incorrectly balanced.

The recap will show the damage players took and how much was mitigated, which could help them decide whether to improve defences such as life, evasion or cold resistance. Rogers said damage-over-time tracking is not yet fully accurate about where the damage came from, and the team is working on it. The developers may also bring the feature to the original Path of Exile if players request it widely.
