"Path of Exile" or "POE" 3.13 update has just been announced on January 7 and players are now looking at finally creating the best builds for their new expansion. This includes new endgame mechanics as well as changes to the 19 classes in Echoes of the Atlas.

According to the "Path of Exile" forum, some time later this very week, the 3.13.0 expansion pack will finally be launching through an exclusive livestream. Players will finally be able to play the game themselves this coming January 15.

Because players usually have a little more time between both the expansion's announcement as well as its launch, it could be quite confusing as to what particular news period will take place from when the announcement starts on Jan 7 up to the final updates.

According to a video by This is Badger on YouTube, there will be a whole lot of changes made to the classes in "Path of Exile" making them more balanced and basically aimed to provide players a better gaming experience. The 19 different classes won't all be given major changes as the video centers more around 13 of the 19 classes.
