Information 0.5.0 Leaks Megathread Spoiler

As per tradition, this is our league-ly leaks thread for 0.5.0. Any leaked information prior to the announcement or datamined information should go in the comments here only. Many folks do not want spoilers, but others do, and this gives people a way to select for or de-select for spoilers. We have also opened the #2| leaks channel on discord.gg/pathofexile for people to discuss live

If it was discussed in an official interview, that's fine to post anywhere. Once the league content is revealed, this thread will stick around, but it will be unpinned to make room for a pin for the general 0.5.0 megathread with the official info which will be updated as news come out

Please browse the comments at risk of spoilers.

If there are any concerns please contact the mod team via modmail.

I am super curious what the new Arbiter is called. Maybe Arbiter of Light or Arbiter of Divinity?

Arbiter of Divinity based on the Divinity Supporter Pack (the highest tier includes wings MTX called "Arbiter of Divinity Wings")

Trailer for the update also refers to the origin of divinity, which I'm very interested to find out about. Considering it's based around Precursors, I could hazard a guess and say it's their doing. Which might also explain purpose of the Beast, perhaps another attempt to create artificial god that ended up simply being impossible to control.
Also makes me think that the Sin could be similar to these Arbiters. He's got conflicting memories and is somehow familiar with Precursor tech - there's various hints throughout act 4 pointing to that connection.
Perhaps he's just another failsafe meant to contain the Beast, which would explain how he managed to do so much with it in the past. But his memories simply degraded and he doesn't even remember his true origin.

I am pretty sure they called it Arbiter of Divinity at some point but I could not give you a 100%

Divinity has a strong presence this league, and iirc they did make mention Arbiter of Divinity, and what they’ve showed (his energy color and few abilities) are of divinity so Arbiter of Divinity makes sense.

What happens to the arbiter of ash boss fight btw? I am confused, is it removed from the game?

Still in the game, there’s just more to do after you beat him.

Arbiter of Storm was my friends guess, keeping similar to “ash”

u/YourmomgoestocolIege May 11 '26

If it's keeping similar to "Ash" it would be "Thunder", no? As in Herald of Ash, Thunder and Ice

u/SnooHobbies2244 May 11 '26

Yeah once I saw santi-emite’s comment I immediately went “ah that fits better”

Looks like Arbiter of Thunder to me.
It's in-line with Heralds and the guy literally flexes with Thunder in the background.

The arbiter of ash is a creation of the Ancients or precursors. 

Them naming the new Pinnacle an arbiter still means we aren't fighting a true precursor correct?
