Many gamers may prefer to use a controller instead of a mouse and keyboard when gaming. Especially for Path of Exile players who now want to use a gamepad to play the game, they might be happy to know that patch 3.17.3 adds support for PC controllers. So in order to get a better gaming experience, they can prepare enough POE PC Currency in advance.

Players will need to plug their controller into their PC, go to the settings menu, and then go to the input options panel. From there, just change the input method to “Controller (Beta)” and they can use the gamepad without restarting the Path of Exile client.

For some gamepads, players may need to install a third-party program to run, such as DS4Windows, if they’re using a PS4 DualShock controller. Because this feature is still in beta, players may encounter some issues. If you encounter any issues, be sure to report them to the developers.

Patch 3.17.3 brings some bug fixes and improvements. Using the highlight key when hovering placed items now shows minimum and maximum defensive values again. Punishment Curse’s overkill explosion no longer occurs if the curse is owned by the defender or one of its allies. Fixed the arena mechanic in The Infinite Hunger boss fight, it now stops once it killed the boss.

Fixed the Increased Minion Cast Speed quality modifier on Bone Offering, now it can apply to players when Mistress of Sacrifice is assigned. Fixed the quality description for Tempest Shield as it incorrectly stated that Chance to Shock was granted by the buff when it was only local to the skill. For more content, players can get some news at POECurrency, where they can also buy some POE PC Currency and POE Orbs/Items. Come on!
