Unfixed Temple BUG damaging game balance and fairness (1+ Month Old).

Dear Grinding Gear Games Support Team,

This issue has been discussed for over 9 pages in the official forum master thread "sacrificial chamber poe 2 not showing" since January 9th. Specifically, the Sacrificial Chamber room cards permanently stop appearing in the Temple Console pool, even when no such room currently exists on the grid.

Technical Findings (Suspected Causes):

The Problem: Once triggered, the room remains missing indefinitely despite accumulating over 1,000 Temple Energy charges and performing hundreds of refreshes. Even killing the Architect/Queen Atziri or restarting the grid will not fix the corrupted metadata.

Potential Triggers: Based on community investigation, this logic failure is likely triggered by:

1.Using a Sacrifice Room card to sacrifice the chamber itself.

2.Using the Sacrifice function in the sidebar to sacrifice other rooms while no Sacrificial Chamber currently exists on the grid.

Root Cause Speculation: The game state likely fails to reset the "In-Pool" flag in the character’s metadata, causing the RNG logic to treat the chamber as "already placed" and excluding it from the sequence permanently.

Economic Impact and Fairness:

Broken Advanced Strategies: The Sacrificial Chamber is a vital "surgical tool" for optimizing advanced techniques like the "Roman Road" or "Snake" layouts. Without it, players cannot modify their paths, leading to a complete stagnation of endgame progression.

Market Imbalance: Tier 3 chambers are the sole source of Vaal Cultivation Orbs (approx. 7.5 Divine Orbs). This bug creates an unfair wealth gap within the league, as dedicated players are locked out of high-end crafting outcomes due to a technical error rather than player skill.

I request that you immediately escalate this report and the community evidence to your technical and development departments. It is unacceptable for a character-ruining bug to persist for weeks with zero official communication during Early Access.

I look forward to an actual technical resolution that allows affected players to restore their progression.

Best regards,

A dedicated player who deeply loves Path of Exile 2.
