Path Of Exile 2 Accounts

With the release of patch 0.3.0, The Third Edict, on August 29th, Path of Exile 2 has added a host of new content, enriching gameplay while also providing you with more farmable resources and corresponding farming methods.

To quickly advance your character in the new leagues, you'll need to take advantage of these new items and mechanics to earn more POE 2 currency to enhance your character and gear.

One of the most noteworthy items is Desecrated items. These items can enhance your gear or Waystones in unique ways, but for them to work, you must first visit Well of Souls.

This article explains the specific relationship between these two items and other related information.

What Are Desecrated Items?

These items, newly introduced by The Third Edict, provide powerful new modifiers for your gear or enhance Waystones, giving you additional benefits while exploring the map and other league content during the new leagues.

How To Get This Item?

Desecrated items are obtained in two steps. First, you need to farm Abyssal Fissures to obtain Abyssal Currencies, which typically take the form of bones from various Abyssal enemies.

Next, you need to apply this special currency to your regular rare items, converting them into Desecrated items to obtain a hidden modifier. The currently available currencies and their functions are:

• Gnawed Jawbone: Desecrates a Rare Weapon or Quiver
• Preserved Jawbone: Desecrates a Rare Weapon or Quiver
• Ancient Jawbone: Desecrates a Rare Weapon or Quiver
• Gnawed Rib: Desecrates a Rare Armor
• Preserved Rib: Desecrates a Rare Armor
• Ancient Rib: Desecrates a Rare Armor
• Gnawed Collarbone: Desecrates a Rare Amulet, Ring or Belt
• Preserved Collarbone: Desecrates a Rare Amulet, Ring or Belt
• Ancient Collarbone: Desecrates a Rare Amulet, Ring or Belt
• Preserved Cranium: Desecrates a Rare Jewel
• Preserved Vertebrae: Desecrates a Rare Waystone

Note that this newly added modifier is initially inactive. You must visit Well of Souls, infuse acquired bones into gear or Waystones, and then reveal them through Well of Souls to activate the modifier's effect.

While Abyssal Currencies offer a limited variety of options, they uniquely reduce the randomness of re-rolling modifiers for gear, allowing you to more directly enhance your gear without consuming additional base currency.

How To Find Well Of Souls?

After creating your Rise of the Abyssal League character, you'll need to complete Act 1 in the main campaign, then progress to recreating Horn of the Vastiri as you explore Act 2.

Next, continue on to Mastodon Badlands and strive to find Lightless Passage. To do this, carefully explore the edges of the map and locate a hidden, downward-sloping path, typically located in the southwest of the area.

When you see a distinctive archway marked by a giant tusk, you can pass through it and enter the dark path leading to Lightless Passage, where you'll enter a dungeon.

This dungeon is extremely dangerous, with countless monster hordes and dangerous, rare enemies lurking in the darkness. While clearing all monsters will yield currency and other resource drops, remember that your goal is to find Well of Souls.

So don't get hung up on it; simply keep pushing forward, protecting yourself, until you see the entrance to Well of Souls.

After completing your initial exploration, the waypoints in this area will be permanently unlocked, allowing you to easily travel back and forth to Well of Souls via the map.

What Should You Do After Entering Here?

Once you enter Well of Souls, you'll encounter Lurking Creature. Interacting with it will trigger a story involving a character called The Hooded One, who will help you understand Lurking Creature's language and communicate with it.

Completing this interaction grants you permanent access to Well of Souls' features. It will then become a dedicated crafting station, similar to a hideout, allowing you to quickly access it when you need to modify new gear.

What Does Well Of Souls Do?

Here, you can reveal and apply Desecrated modifiers, earned through Abyssal Currency, to rare gear.

These modifiers are initially hidden on the item in unreadable green text. Placing an item in a Well of Souls container will trigger a ritual offering three different modifier options, which you can choose from.

Note that once you select and confirm a modifier, Abyssal Currency can no longer be used on that item, making the buffs granted to the gear permanent and unchangeable.

Selecting a modifier allows you to add general modifiers to gear, allowing you to upgrade faster through combat and making it easier to acquire gear with specific stat rolls.

Adding modifiers to Waystones, on the other hand, allows you to infuse new Waystones with new modifiers in the endgame, increasing the challenge level and earning more rewards.

In short, Desecrated items are new items that enhance your gear in Rise of the Abyssal League. To function, they must be activated and selected through a ritual in Well of Souls.

That concludes our introduction. We hope this helps you become stronger in Patch 0.3.0! We wish you the best of luck in your League adventures!

After nearly five months, Path of Exile 2 finally received another major update. While no new classes were added this time, the story has finally advanced to Act 4.

As one of the highlights of 0.3.0, it is undoubted that players are very excited about it. So, what is the main story of Act 4, and how does it compare to the previous three acts?

Act 4 Plot

The story of Path of Exile 2 takes place 20 years after the events of the original game, but the protagonists are completely different.

In the first three acts, you are an exile sentenced to death by Count, but luckily escape (this is the screen where you choose your class). Investigating Seed of Corruption, you eventually battle Count, discovering that he has been bewitched by Oriana. However, she has already escaped with The Beast. (Act 1)

Tracing Oriana's footsteps, you arrive in Vastiri Desert and defeat her resurrected champion, who harnesses the power of the beast, but she escapes once again. (Act 2)

In the ruins of Utzaal Jungle, you encounter the people of Kingsmarch and gain access to the lore of Vaal Empire. After defeating the final boss, Doryani, a brilliant inventor from Vaal Empire, he finally agrees to help you assemble a weapon to fight The Beast. (Act 3)

Act 4 picks up where Act 3 left off, as you continue your hunt for Oriana and The Beast. In addition to The Hooded One, Doryani will also join you on your journey to find The Third Edict, an ancient weapon powerful enough to defeat The Beast.

This legendary relic is said to have shattered long ago, its fragments scattered across Ngamakanui Archipelago. You'll need to charter a boat from Kingsmarch to reach this area.

New Areas

Unlike the linear storyline of the first three acts, Act 4 is a semi-open world, allowing you to explore any of the areas you choose. The following areas are related to Act 4:

• Kingsmarch (Town)
• Kedge Bay, Journey's End
• Ngatoto Island, Hinekora's Passage
• Shrike Island
• Singing Caverns
• Shiplash Seastead
• The Enclave of the Twilight Order
• Isle of Decay
• Ngakanu
• Precursor Forge - Precursor Ruins
• Twilight Enclave
• Shrike Island: Monster Level 46 (Boss, Scourge of the Skies)
• Journey's End: Monster Level 45 (Boss, Captain Hartlin)
• Ngatoto Island: Monster Level 45 (Boss, Diamora, Song of Death)
• Isle of Kin: Monster Level 45 (Boss, Krutog, the Lord of Kin)
• Izaro's Prison (Eternal Prison): Monster Level 45 (Boss, The Prisoner)
  

If you're not leveling high enough, you can level in these areas, but don't try to farm currency there. This time is wasted until you reach the endgame, so don't waste too much time there.

New Bosses

In addition to defeating 100 new monsters in Act 4, you'll also face 12 new bosses. It's currently unknown which boss will be the final one, but it's likely that the final boss in Act 4 will depend on the path you choose. Defeating these bosses will reward you with equipment and some PoE 2 currency. Here are some of the bosses in Act 4:

• Krutog, Lord of Kin (Giant Goblin Boss)
• The Blind Beast
• Yama the White
• Captain Hartlin
• The Prisoner
• Diamora, Song of Death
• Scourge of the Skies
• Hoko, of the Tukohoma Tribe

Krutog, Lord Of Kin

Krutog, Lord of Kin is an unstunnable boss with high resistance to physical damage. It consumes Sulphite in the area and vomits it towards you. This skill is an AoE ability, dealing Chaos damage if hit. It also uses attacks like Trample and Projectiles, but its movement speed is moderate, making it easily kited by classes like Huntresses and Rangers.

Captain Hartlin

Captain Hartlin is an undead boss with high physical and cold resistance. It deals physical and fire damage primarily. Besides its ability to use projectiles like mortars, its summoned ghost crew members can also fire beams at you.

Its movement speed is very slow, making it easier for agile classes to deal with it, but be wary of its various ranged attacks. Furthermore, many of its skills convert physical damage into fire damage, so be sure to increase your fire resistance.

Diamora, Song Of Death

Diamora, Song of Death is a demon boss with a movement speed similar to Krutog, Lord of Kin. It has high cold resistance but is weak to lightning. It is a spellcaster dealing primarily cold damage. Aside from being careful with her AoE abilities and increasing your cold resistance, this boss is quite easy to defeat.

Scourge Of The Skies

Scourge of the Skies is a beastly boss that can fly and doesn't have any particularly strong resistances. Besides approaching and attacking you, its primary attack is to summon minions. Therefore, having an AoE ability that can quickly clear monster builds makes it much easier to deal with them.

As for main bosses, they're not particularly difficult and can be defeated with the right gear and level. If you're repeatedly defeated, you can increase your level or use PoE 2 currency to rebuild your gear might be a better option.

This is a general overview of Path of Exile 2 Act 4. I hope this information will help you more easily complete Act 4 and reach the endgame.
