I don't think so. I mean servers go down and patching begins 3 hours before expansion is launched. Three hours is plenty of time to download 5 gb, even with mediocre internet.
This is actually even unnecessary for me, as 5 gb patch would take like 20 minutes to download on steam :mellow: .

I don't know what your internet speed is though.


And theres that thing like last expansion where
Servers dont want to let u start download the patch
So u have to download it via torrent....

Thats gggs things always
And never smooth anyway.

It's a good thing for those of us who are not able to launch POE before half our before. It will also be good for GGGs bandwith and the user download speed, as less people are downloading at the same time.

so i would just copy/paste it into my main poe folder? or into one of the folders in my main folder?
sry if i seem clueless on this bro
but if i have a good rig and internet is this really necessary?


1. Download 8,25 gig
2. Wait for game to go down
3. Replace C:\Program Files (x86)\Grinding Gear Games\Path of Exile\Content.ggpk with the downloaded Content.ggpk.
4. Launch game when servers are up
5. Only download a little bit more to get ready, instead of waiting for 5,5 gig to download.

Site is down at the moment but someone posted this link https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xZQ7PZB-3V1bg7KvhWBjMahRl8XRpX6I/view if anyone is looking to download the patch early (Cant verify if it is safe, not my link).
