While the narrative depth of Path of Exile 2 might not reach the levels of The Witcher 3, it compensates with engaging side quests that can be quite perplexing. A prime example is the Ancient Vows quest in Act Ancient Vows. Despite its seemingly straightforward nature, the quest's vague instructions often leave players puzzled.

How to complete this quest?

The Ancient Vows quest will automatically appear in your journal once you acquire either the Sun Clan Relic or the Kabala Clan Relic. These artifacts are concealed within the treacherous Bone Pits and Keth areas. Prepare for a challenging journey as you delve deep into these zones, battling numerous monsters and meticulously searching every corner.

The relics are dropped randomly by enemies, making the search a true test of patience and skill. After securing one of the relics, your next destination is the Valley of the Titans, a place shrouded in mystery and fraught with danger. Ensure you are well-prepared for the final phase of this quest!

Given the game's randomly generated maps, pinpointing exact locations is impossible. However, here are some useful tips: Upon entering the Valley of the Titans, explore until you find a waypoint. Nearby, you'll likely discover a large statue with an altar. To place the relics, simply highlight them and drag them into the corresponding slots on the altar.

Rewards for this quest

Your reward will be swift! You'll have the choice between two passive effects:

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

If you later regret your initial choice, you can switch to the other effect. This process, however, requires effort. You must return to the altar where you made your first selection. Realigning your path and choosing the alternative effect isn't just a simple task—it may involve navigating through potentially hostile areas again. Be ready for any challenges that arise before making this change, as the journey itself is integral to your decision-making process.

At first glance, these rewards might not seem significant. However, understanding the role of Charms in Path of Exile 2 reveals their importance in bolstering your defenses. By using Charms strategically, you can greatly enhance your survivability in boss fights. Since Charms consume Charges, the bonus from Ancient Vows can help you endure longer during tough battles. If your Mana Flask often depletes during intense encounters, the second bonus becomes increasingly appealing.
