In the footsteps of Ancients: a journey through Vows in PoE 2

Path of Exile 2's Ancient Vows quest: A Comprehensive Guide

Path of Exile 2, while not boasting the narrative depth of The Witcher 3, presents players with intriguing side quests, including the somewhat cryptic Ancient Vows. This guide will help you unravel its mysteries.

Unlike many straightforward PoE2 quests, Ancient Vows lacks precise location details. The quest activates after obtaining either the Sun Clan Relic (Bone Pits) or the Kabala Clan Relic (Keth). Locating these relics requires thorough exploration and combat within these challenging areas, as they are randomly dropped by enemies.

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 by dragging and dropping it into the designated slot.

Rewards:

You'll choose between two passive effects:

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

This choice is reversible, though returning to the altar to change your selection requires navigating potentially dangerous areas.

While seemingly minor, these rewards significantly impact gameplay. The Charm Charge gain boosts survivability in boss fights, while increased Mana recovery is crucial for players whose Mana Flasks frequently deplete.
