In Path of Exile 3.28 Mirage League, a total of 10 new Runegrafts has been added. How do they work and how to get them? This article will cover all new PoE 3.28 Runegrafts with full stats, how to get and farm them, best picks, and official changes.
PoE 3.28 Mirage New Runegrafts & Farming
Runegrafts are special passive skill modifiers in Path of Exile that function as mastery passive replacements. They are consumable, stackable items that let players swap out existing mastery passives on their passive skill tree for unique, powerful bonuses that can’t be obtained from regular passives. Each Runegraft has a strict limit—only one copy of a specific Runegraft can be equipped per character, making them targeted, impactful upgrades for builds. PoE 3.28 Runegrafts are tied to the Kingsmarch shipping mechanic, serving as exclusive rewards for sending shipments to various ports. Unlike generic passive tree nodes, Runegrafts add build-defining perks, from damage boosts and defensive buffs to utility enhancements that synergize with flask, ailment, banner, and projectile mechanics. They are a core endgame and mid-game progression tool for players looking to fine-tune their builds and gain an edge in combat.

How to Farm & Get Runegrafts in PoE 3.28?
All Runegrafts in PoE 3.28 are obtained exclusively via the Kingsmarch shipping system, by sending shipments to Karui and Kalguuran ports. Shipments now grant targeted rewards—specific Tattoos or Runegrafts—based on the port you select, eliminating random generic drops for more consistent farming. Kalguuran Ports (Riben Fell, Pondium, Kalguur) are the primary source of Runegrafts, with strict value thresholds and port-specific drops:
Shipment Value Threshold: Runegrafts only drop once you hit a minimum shipment value; a raw shipment value of ~450k (excluding dust) guarantees at least 1 Runegraft per delivery.
Port-Specific Drops: Each Kalguuran port rewards a fixed pool of Runegrafts, tied to DEX, STR, or INT attribute themes. Non-dust resources and total shipment value directly impact the rarity and quantity of Runegrafts received.
Bonus Exclusive Rewards: Completing Port Quotas with a level 52+ character grants Ynda's Stand; level 62+ characters unlock Cadigan's Authority as extra rewards alongside Runegrafts.
