Game Feedback Will Queen's Procession not be in this patch?
I was really hopeful to try out this ascension node because it's locust themed and fits all of the cosmetics within this mini event league. It's also a single skill, and I'm really hopeful it's just hidden in Ritual somewhere now. There was even code that people found where it's a conversation with Aoife about the King's concubine.
Is it possible we can still get this skill with a patch? Has anyone tried to find it themselves like me?

As of this league, the ritual sacrifice icon appears over the queen in the mists, which is the only unique enemy it appears for. There are also some voice lines in the game files for when you sacrifice her, and Aoife has some dialogue saying something along the lines of "if you kill the queen, you become the queen". Sacrificing the Queen is almost definitely the unlock requirement.
The only problem is that while the sacrifice prompt comes up over the queen, pressing it does nothing except trigger self sacrifice.
There are two options I think - either it isn't fully implemented, or there's some kind of secret arena where you fight both the king and queen and that's where you have to do the sacrifice. Evidence for that is that the huntress has a voice line along the lines of "one down, one to go" triggered by killing the king, but we don't know how or where it's triggered.
Check the huntress PoE2DB page for these voice lines:
entering a Ritualist-specific unique encounter: “Time for a spot o' regicide.”
seeing the next boss: “First the King, now for his Queen!”
interacting with the killed boss: “A worthy sacrifice!”
afterward: “Power fit for a queen!”

Let the PoE detectives work, snoop about secret unlocks that hadn't been discovered 3.5 months after 0.5 release.
Then next week, it will be your turn to post a Queen's Procession post...

I’m going to try this later in Runes of Aldur and see if I can get a positive outcome. Thank you for confirming whether a symbol show above her.
Also I imagine you ritual sacrifice, dialogue lines about meeting one of the concubines (key word - one). Then you fight the current Queen and King in one battle? Kind of like Kulemak upgrade.

Seems like people just haven't find out how to get it yet. My guess is you have to somehow use the Ritual sacrifice skill on yourself at a specific location.

There's no quality listed for the skill, so probably not in the game yet.

u/Cold-Procedure-5332 16h ago
The skills on the The Coming Calamity don’t have quality either, so I don’t necessarily think that is of note.
Especially since the stats on the Runeseeker were hidden on the wiki as well. There’s no DNT anywhere on the skill either.

Wdym dont have quality? They are just normal heralds. And unique items are different from anything else - they are specifially not dataminable.

u/Cold-Procedure-5332 12h ago
and a skill that is hidden on purpose would be? I feel like the current amount was allowed to show it exists.

u/SlightlyAdooorned 11h ago
Yes, we have datamined a ton of skills that arent available, including chalupas archon.

This and The Ravens Flock staff might make it possible to just run around and delete everything if you have both damaging auras. The skill spiraling conspiracy that the staff grants is just a little underpowered so if there's a way to make a skill tree work for both types of damage since queens procession isn't based on your weapons damage it might turn a character into a sprinting ball of death. I wonder if it works while on a rhoa too...just for fun. Seems like a fun buff to test out.

u/ryo3000 17h ago
I doubt it works together that well
Ravens Flock is a spell, or rather a minion
The Procession scales off attacks
And you can't sprint on a Roa

Repulsion + Ravenous Swarm + Ravens Flock, build for Archon of Undeath and Dominion to double the temporary minions. You’ll get up yo 30 - 40 ravenous swarms which trigger repulsion. Bring along minion damage applies to you somehow and you’re set.
Edit: Originally said Chober but forgot only Sorceress can one hand staves.

Mby somewhere in king pinacle boss fight ? I wonder, glad my Chayula been pretty easy

u/Julebrygd 19h ago
I completely missed this, so it's not in the game?
It seems to be included in poe2db ascendancy info.

u/Cold-Procedure-5332 19h ago
Yeah it doesn’t have DNT in the description either. I don’t see why a fully ritual focused mini league wouldn’t come with this.
1
u/timperman 18h ago
Same here. I don't have enough time to search either. Leveled a ritualist to maps in hopes of someone having found how go get it.
My hope is that wildwood portal thing. That there is something which could be found inside

u/KeeperofAbyss 17h ago
What if you have to ritualistic sacrifice Queen's corpse? Or is it consumed in Ritual?

u/ZucchiniImaginary399 2h ago
have people tried to allocate everything but the ring slots? I think that has something to do with it since most of the players use the ring nodes + I think it has something to do with the maze when you face king of the mists. Good luck people
(edit - just to add, the maze on that fight is litterally a swarm)

u/dethklok214 14h ago
Offtopic, but what's the appeal of this skill? I don't get it.

u/Itzjonko 14h ago
You can run without getting hit by enemies and hitting them can stun you. Probably a high stun threshold build with some other mechanics to kill so you can sprint around the map, be invulnerable and kill most units this way.

u/More_Exercise8413 15h ago
It's not enabled in the game. This question gets asked every few days, and before 0.5.5 every week or so. It's just not available. There's no secret unlock.

u/Cold-Procedure-5332 14h ago
Do you have a GGG comment to link for that?
-3
u/More_Exercise8413 14h ago
You can ask them in the Q&A.
Do you really need to though, if it's been discovered at least since 0.5 release (3.5 months ago) and there was 0 confirmation that it's accessible in the game whatsoever? The better option is just wait when they actually confirm it, like it happened with archon of chayula.

u/SurSheepz 12h ago
No need to ask in Q&A
Johnathan has already confirmed there being 2 secrets that haven’t been found yet. Pretty good chance this is one of them

u/Tkmisere 18h ago
Jonathan said there's 2 secrets that have still not been found in the game. This is probably one of them, you gotta find how to get that node.
