Core Path of Exile Supporter Packs
This is a separate category of Path of Exile Supporter Packs, they include many previous leagues packs added to the core. So they are called Path of Exile Core Supporter Packs. What GGG says about them:
“The sales of Supporter Packs fund almost all of Path of Exile’s development. Thanks to your generous contributions, we have been able to pay for the content and server costs of Path of Exile and its many expansions. This support is greatly appreciated. It covers not only our day-to-day development costs but also the development of future expansions and Path of Exile 2.”
Core Supporter Pack Notes:
- T-Shirt: Abyss Core Supporters and above will be able to choose between an iconic Path of Exile Logo T-Shirt and a new Exalted Orb T-Shirt. We expect them to ship by the end of January.
- Hoodies: Harvest Core Supporters and above will be able to choose between an iconic Path of Exile Logo Hoodie and a new Exalted Orb Hoodie. We expect them to ship by the end of January.
- Signed Art Pack: This signed art pack is exclusively available to Atlas Core Supporters and features five artist-signed prints of the concept art for each of the five new Core Supporter Packs. We expect physical items to ship in January, COVID-permitting.
- Alternate Helmets: In addition to the helmet that comes with the Armour Set, each of the Core Supporter Packs contains an additional hood or helmet to add more cosmetic options for your characters.
- The Path of Exile Digital Soundtrack: Like all previous packs, these ones grant access to the soundtrack containing all the music from Path of Exile. A high-quality FLAC version is also available. Both are DRM-free.

I’m a big fan of Path of Exile, and I’m always looking for new ways to support the game. I think the supporter packs are a great way to do that. They give players a lot of value for their money.
