Path of Exile 2's Ancient Vows quest: A concise guide

Path of Exile 2, while boasting less intricate storytelling than games like The Witcher 3, presents players with intriguing side quests, including the somewhat enigmatic Ancient Vows. This guide simplifies the process.

The quest activates upon obtaining either the Sun Clan Relic (Bone Pits) or the Kabala Clan Relic (Keth). Locating these relics requires exploration and combat within these challenging areas; they are random enemy drops.

Once a relic is acquired, head to the Valley of the Titans. While map generation is random, look for a waypoint; a large statue with an altar is usually nearby. Place the relic on the altar.

Rewards: Choose between:

30% increased Charm Charge gain
15% increased Mana recovery from Flasks

This choice is reversible, but requires returning to the altar—a potentially hazardous journey.

While seemingly minor, these rewards significantly impact Charm usage, crucial for defense and survivability, especially during boss encounters. The best choice depends on your playstyle.
