What is it?

Ancient Vows is a quest in Path of Exile 2 that is available in Act II. It involves getting a couple of relics and then putting them in a place somewhere in the Vastiri Desert. Although this is an optional quest, we still recommend that you accomplish it due to the rewards you are going to get.

Now, there are a few key points of interest that you have to know about. The first is The Bone Pits—a place where you will get the Sun Clan Relic. You can visit this place once you have “A Theft of Ivory” quest.

The Sun Clan Relic can be obtained as a random drop by defeating enemies in the area. If you do not get it after eliminating every monster in this place, go to the Waypoint and create a new instance. This is done by hovering your mouse over The Bone Pits, pressing and holding the Ctrl Key, and clicking on it. Press “New” on the Instance Manager when it pops up.

The second point of interest is Keth, which you can access when “The City of Seven Waters” is assigned to you by Sekhema Asala.

Here, you will find the Kabala Clan Relic. Similar to the previous one, the Kabala Clan Relic can be obtained by defeating the monsters in the area. If you do not have it yet, you can proceed to The Lost City, alleviating the need to reset the instance.

Once you have the Sun Relic and the Kabala Clan Relic in your possession, proceed to the last point of interest—the Valley of the Titans.

You don’t have to deal with the Ancient Seals here because your objective here is not to enter the Titan Grotto. Instead, you are here to place both of the relics on the Medallion, which is typically situated near the Waypoint.

Find the Waypoint in the Valley of the Titans until you come across the Medallion.

Interact with the Medallion so that you can put both the Sun Clan Relic and Kabala Clan Relic in their respective places. Once you do, you can select a beneficial effect. Having said that, you can do the Path of Exile 2 Ancient Vows quest in both Normal and Cruel Difficulty, which means that you can get two permanent bonuses! Here is the rundown:

  • Normal Difficulty
    • 30% Increased Charm charges gained
    • 15% Increased mana recovery from flasks
  • Cruel Difficulty
    • 30% Increased charges gained
    • 15% Increased Life Recovery from flasks

Normal Difficulty Reward

Cruel Difficulty Reward

You don’t have to be too strict when it comes to the bonuses that you choose because you can actually change your pick at any time. Simply take the Waypoint to the Valley of the Titans and then click on your preferred permanent bonus.

Final Thoughts

And there you have it! We hope that you’ve found our PoE 2 Ancient Vows detailed quest guide helpful. Which of the permanent bonuses did you choose and why? Do not be shy to tell us in the comments!

If you are having trouble completing the quest in Cruel Difficulty, then that is probably because you do not have the best gear equipped yet. You can address that by purchasing PoE 2 Currency like Divine Orbs and Exalts from our store.
