Path of Exile 3.22 Unlock the Power of Loyalty Tattoos Guide

In Path of Exile's latest patch 3.22, there's a unique and intriguing feature that many players might have overlooked – Loyalty Tattoos. These tattoos seem minion-related at first glance, but upon closer inspection, they offer some game-changing effects that can significantly enhance your character's performance. In this guide, we'll explore the Loyalty Tattoos, their unique triggers, and how to make the most of them in your builds.

 


Path of Exile 3.22 Unlock the Power of Loyalty Tattoos Guide

 

Understanding Loyalty Tattoos

Loyalty Tattoos are special buffs that trigger under specific conditions, providing powerful bonuses to your character for a limited time. These buffs default to having a 15% uptime, but they have a trigger condition that only activates if 80 seconds have passed since the last trigger. This mechanic ensures that Loyalty Tattoos don't activate too frequently, but when they do, they grant substantial benefits for 12 seconds.

 

Trigger Conditions

These tattoos trigger when you're in the presence of a unique enemy, or when a unique enemy performs certain actions on your character. This means that Loyalty Tattoos are most likely to activate during boss fights or challenging encounters. However, there are a few unique enemy types you'd want to avoid triggering these tattoos against, including Rogue Exiles, Tormented Spirits, and portals in Elder Guardian-occupied maps.

 

Opportunity Cost

Before delving into the specifics of each Loyalty Tattoo, it's important to note that equipping one tattoo prevents you from using others. Additionally, using a Loyalty Tattoo costs a 10 attribute node on your passive tree. While these nodes aren't the most powerful, they are still necessary to equip gems, so you should consider this opportunity cost when choosing which Loyalty Tattoo to use.

 

Loyalty Tattoo Options

Now, let's explore the Loyalty Tattoos individually and their trigger conditions:

Conclusion

While they come with an opportunity cost and specific trigger conditions, they are worth considering for most builds.
