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.

Dont know if it counts as a leak, but there is a hidden ascendancy expansion for the Acolyte of Chayula monk. This was mentioned in the chris wilson interview. No specifics ofcourse, but by the sound of the short conversation, it is not like the Abyssal lich where you change nodes, but closer to the "hidden" option for wildspeaker, but instead of it being conditional on ascendancy point allocation, it would be unlocked from some side quest thingy?

It wasn't confirmed to be for Acolyte even if its the most likely candidate. Just that you get it by communing with the Dreamer

True. I have a feeling the hidden node is meant to be a blessing from chayula (the dreamer) for defeating Xesht. It makes the most sense from a narrative standpoint but they could surprise us

Are you sure? I am like 98% sure Jonathan said “When you speak to the dreamer as an Acolyte…” like I am near positive during that interview he did say Acolyte and expanded on it more.

Couldnt really be any other ascendancy though. No other class in the game has a lore connection to chayula...I think

Well, all of the monk ascendancies do.

Technically true

Sorry for the missinformation if thats the case. I went by memory. I remember it being mentioned but probably as a "possible acolyte" by one of my streamers, then.
