Grinding Gear Games is inviting all Path of Exile players and fans to join a Talent Competition that's going to be themed around Affliction. Talent could be anything from videos, cosplay, fan art, craft, and even baking, to name a few. There's going to be cool prizes especially for those who place in the top three. This competition ends January 31.

While the competition is indeed all about talent, there are some entries that won't be eligible. These are written or text-based submissions like short stories or poems. The studio also won't be accepting any AI generated art including fixed up and edited AI generated art.

To join, all you need to do is simply send your entry to the thread here and that's pretty much it. The studio revealed that the content should be easy to consume. What this means is that it shouldn't take longer than three minutes to view it or listen to it. Of course, it's still possible to post content that's longer than three minutes but it could result in a disadvantage.

That said, here are the prizes up for grabs:

  • Top Three Winners
    • Path of Exile Art Book
    • Signed Atlas Passive Tree Art Print
    • Your choice of two Path of Exile T-shirts
    • A random Path of Exile Pin
    • Chaos Orb Socks
    • Your choice of an Armor Set
    • Your choice of a Portal Effect
    • Your choice of Footprints Effect
  • 4th to 5th Place
    • Your choice of one Path of Exile T-shirt
    • A random Path of Exile Pin
    • Your choice of an Armor Set
    • Your choice of a Portal Effect
    • Your choice of Footprints Effect
  • 6th to 10th Place
    • A random Path of Exile Pin
    • Your choice of a Portal Effect
    • Your choice of Footprints Effect
  • 11th to 20th Place
    • Your choice of a Portal Effect
  • Runners-Up
    • Your choice of a Helmet Effect
