The items contained in supporter packs and available with points only allow players to distinguish themselves in the world of Wraeclast without receiving any gameplay advantage. Supporter packs include points to spend on cosmetics, forum titles, unique armour sets, decorative objects, and the digital soundtrack amongst others. There are also additional character slots (accounts already come with 24 free character slots) and stash tabs (bank) available for microtransaction points. Points can be spent in the game on a huge array of cosmetics such as animations and alternate skill effects, weapon and armour effects, and pets. Path of Exile features a shop that offers Basic Point packs as well as several supporter packs. Both expansions released since launch have been made available for absolutely free and Grinding Gear promises to continue to never charge for content. Instead, developers intend to fund the development and ongoing expansion of their game through microtransactions and purchasable supporter packs. The title has been designed from the scratch with a free-to-play business model in mind there is no (optional) subscription feature. Players may create an account to download the client and start playing without being charged at all. Since its official launch in late 2013, Path of Exile has always been free to play. In addition to deep character customisation, competitive PvP and ladder races, the game offers seven playable character classes players can pick from to explore the dark and brutal continent of Wraeclast and is designed around a strong barter-based online item economy. That percentage will vary depending on the answers to our questions. Remember that games start with a 100% of free-to-play-ness.
