How to use a controller on PC in Path Of Exile’s standalone client and Steam
Path Of Exile now has native support for Xbox-style and DualShock controllers, so all you’ll need to do is plug a controller in in and change your input type in the settings menu. However, you can only change inputs from the log-in screen, so you will need to do this before you actually start playing. Just go to the input tab of your options menu and select an input from the drop-down menu. If you have “auto input selection” checked, you can use your controller to navigate the log-in screen. The game will then automatically switch your input mode to controller when you enter character select this way.
