While Path of Exile 2's narrative may not match The Witcher 3's depth and branching storytelling, it features thought-provoking side quests. The Ancient Vows quest in Act 1 exemplifies this - seemingly simple yet confusingly described, causing headaches for many adventurers.
The Challenge Behind Ancient Vows
Most Path of Exile 2 quests follow clear objectives - travel to locations and defeat bosses. Ancient Vows maintains this structure but removes the usual guidance about where to go or whom to fight. Follow our walkthrough below to conquer this mysterious task seamlessly!
Quest Completion Guide
The Ancient Vows quest activates automatically upon obtaining either the Sun Clan Relic or Kabala Clan Relic. These artifacts hide within two dangerous zones: Bone Pits and Keth. Prepare for thorough exploration and fierce combat encounters while searching these areas.
Since enemies drop these relics randomly, acquiring one requires both persistence and fighting prowess. After securing a relic, journey to the Valley of Titans - a perilous locale where your quest concludes. Ensure you're battle-ready before proceeding!
With procedurally generated maps, exact coordinates remain elusive. However, we recommend this approach: Upon entering Valley of Titans, scout the area until discovering both a waypoint and nearby stone altar beneath a towering statue. Drag your obtained relics into the altar's designated slots to progress.
Quest Rewards Breakdown
Completion offers two permanent passive effect choices:
- 30% enhanced Charm Charge accumulation
- 15% improved Mana Flask recovery
The game permits switching between these bonuses post-selection. Simply revisit the altar - though this may involve dangerous backtracking through hostile territory. Carefully consider your preferred effect before committing!
While initially underwhelming, these bonuses prove invaluable when understanding Path of Exile 2's Charm mechanics. Charm Charges bolster defensive capabilities significantly during critical fights. Similarly, enhanced mana regeneration sustains spellcasting efficiency during prolonged battles.
We hope our comprehensive guide helps you successfully complete the Ancient Vows quest and continue your Path of Exile 2 journey!
