Some POE 2 bosses require specific items to unlock, such as the item An Audience with the King required to unlock The King in the Mists. Based on this, we will introduce you to the farming methods and tips for this item in the game.
If you were asked to make a plan for playing Path of Exile 2, you might write “defeat bosses” in a place like “final goal”. In fact, this is very correct, because only by defeating as many bosses as possible can you possibly complete POE 2 (currently in early access), or let the death of the early bosses drop some essential items for defeating the later bosses.
Many of the difficult POE 2 bosses will only appear after you enter the endgame, such as one of the pinnacle bosses, The King in the Mists. Although defeating and repeatedly farming this boss can bring you a lot of benefits, the tricky thing is that unlocking the related encounter requires an item called An Audience with the King, which is not easy to obtain.
As one of the rare items in POE 2, An Audience with the King can be used at Realmgate in Atlas to unlock the battle with The King in the Mists. There are two ways to get it at the moment: farming Ritual Altars or trading with other players by consuming POE 2 Currency.
An Audience with the King is not only a very rare trophy after the battle, but even after it appears, you need to exchange it with tribute to get it - it’s actually more like a randomly generated item in the store. If you want to know if the item is included in Rituals that appear in all map nodes, you must clear all Rituals before you can check. Fortunately, the item can also appear in low-level maps, which means you don’t have to find another way to increase the map level.
If you still don’t get An Audience with the King after clearing all Rituals, you can use 1000 tributes to click the button at the top of the screen to re-roll the reward pool. However, since Audience with the king requires 2500 to 7000 tributes, even if you get it this way, you probably won’t have enough tribute to exchange.
To avoid this as much as possible, it is recommended that you use the delay function at the bottom of the rewards menu to delay the appearance of An Audience with the King. This way, although you will need more time to encounter it, the number of tributes required to redeem it will be reduced according to the discount, and this discount can be repeated.
However, under this mechanism, the more valuable the item, the longer it will take to return, so you should be able to foresee that it will take a long time for An Audience with the King to return, but don’t worry, it will eventually appear. And because An Audience with the King requires too many tributes, it is best to postpone it repeatedly, and you need to clear dozens of Ritual maps for this, which has to be said to be very hard.
If you don’t have that much time to invest in Path of Exile 2, or just don’t want to suffer through repeated farming, you can choose to trade, which is a simpler and more direct way to get An Audience with the King. Currently, POE 2 trade site and the in-game Currency Exchange both support transactions related to Audience with the King, usually requiring 5-10 POE 2 Divine Orbs.

As you know, An Audience with the King only appears by farming Rituals, so to increase its chances of appearing, you need to turn as many normal map nodes into Rituals as possible, and for this you need to use Ritual Precursor Tablets.
These tablets are a variation of normal Precursor Tablets, and are primarily dropped by killing monsters in Ritual Altars. Placing them in a cleared Tower will convert map nodes. It is worth noting that you can add modifiers to these tablets to increase conversion efficiency, such as:
If you have enough confidence in your character’s strength and the gear is strong enough, it is recommended that you use An Audience with the King to unlock The King in the Mists and fight it, so that you will have the opportunity to obtain a large amount of currency and precious Ingenuity Utility Belt and From Nothing Diamond.
On the contrary, if your current level cannot cope with this difficult boss, it is recommended that you sell An Audience with the King on the market to accumulate orbs to help your character upgrade quickly, otherwise it will only waste An Audience with the King in your inventory.
The above is what we provide you with the role and acquisition method of An Audience with the King in Path of Exile 2. Thank you for reading.
After a long wait, we finally say goodbye to 3.25 and welcome 3.26. The developers also proved in the preview live broadcast that they are not lazy, and there will be enough content added to the game, almost equivalent to a Diablo 4 DLC!
To summarize briefly, the content of Path Of Exile 3.26 covers new endgame content, including new plots and three new Pinnacle Bosses, which can be defeated to get new unique items. In addition, new mechanism mercenaries have been added, and you can choose to recruit them or rob their items.
In addition to the above two important changes, there are many more added content, and let’s inspect.
When the player reaches certain progress in the endgame, you will encounter a mysterious NPC, Eagon, in a Memory Tear. After interacting with Memory Tear, you can start a new Endgame mainline, and Eagon will also move to your hideout.
After opening a new main quest, there will be some maps affected by Memory, where the monsters will carry Memory Petals. You can increase the counter to special memory abilities by killing these monsters, and you can activate special abilities after the counter reaches a certain level. The petals required for each ability are different. For example, Memory of Disbelief requires 30 petals, while Memory of Panic requires 50 petals.
Each map can only unlock one ability, but you can freely combine these abilities to make the monsters drop the loot you want.
As you explore the main quest, you will eventually encounter three Pinnacle Bosses, Incarnation of Dread, Incarnation of Neglect, and Incarnation of Fear. Each boss will drop a new unique item:
Starcaller (Incarnation Of Fear)
Wine Of The Prophet (Incarnation Of Neglect)
Enmity’s Embrace (Possibly From Incarnation Of Dread)
Prospero’s Protection (Possibly From Incarnation Of Dread)
The above are some of the new unique items in Path Of Exile 3.26, which can completely change the gameplay of some builds. However, they require you to defeat Pinnacle Bosses so you can get them, and if you want to get them and complete your build as soon as possible, you can trade with other players as long as you have enough POE Divine Orbs.
In the affected maps, items dropped by monsters will also contain new modifiers related to Memory Strand. You can use the following three new currencies to influence Memory Strand:
Mercenaries are a new mechanic introduced in Path Of Exile 3.26. These mercenaries appear in every city. They have unique skills and equipment, and they are also divided into strong and weak. Some mercenaries will have the affix “Infamous”, which means they have better equipment and are stronger than other mercenaries.
These mercenaries follow the following mechanics:
There are also Mercenaries challenges, which reward you with unique items after completing a certain number of challenges.
With Settlers of Kalguur league settling in Kingsmarch, the quality of life of players will also change:
These are still not all the changes brought by Path Of Exile 3.26. This is undoubtedly the best update so far, and whether you are a returning player or a new player, you can experience it for yourself after the update on Friday, June 13.
Path of Exile 2 Dawn of the Hunt has a lot of new content that players can play for a while. The emergence of the new class and Ascendancy class has disrupted the previous builds rankings, and the new class Huntress quickly replaced Monk.
Before you choose a build, you must first determine the class. At Dawn of the Hunt, I recommend you to play Huntress and Ranger. Currently, both of them are the builds that can cause the most damage. Next are Witch and Sorceress. They can bring a pleasant experience in the early stage of the game, and the damage is also very high in the endgame.
The damage of Monk and Mercenary is not worse than any of the above classes, but their mechanisms are a bit complicated and players need to adapt for a while.
Warrior has excellent survivability, but is not good at causing damage. Therefore, in the endgame, whether it is farming maps or bosses, his efficiency is a bit low, and he also needs to use currency to roll out good modifiers for equipment.
Because of the freedom of building in POE 2, a criterion is needed to rank builds:
Lightning Spear Amazon is one of the most powerful builds currently. With Frenzy Charges, Lightning Spear Amazon can easily cause tens of millions of damage. Lightning Spear Amazon’s skill set is already quite good, so you don’t need to prepare any POE 2 items specifically. If you have a lot of Divine Orbs, you can trade her spear for a Soul Core of Quipolatl.
Glacial Lance Deadeye Build also benefits from Frenzy Charges. Glacial Lance, Combat Frenzy, and Disengage are all related to Frenzy Charge, which makes Deadeye’s DPS very high, but this build requires Thrillsteel Spired Greathelm and Nightscale Pauascale Gloves to increase skill speed and critical strike rate.
Bleed Blood Mage Build has super single-target damage. She can easily kill the boss of a 4-man team on the highest difficulty. In most of time, you can hardly see the boss’s next phase. If you like the one-hit-kill style of play, then you should try Bleed Blood Mage.
S Tier builds can easily pick lv15 maps, while A Tier builds are slightly inferior in output limit, but can also pass normal areas without pressure in the endgame.
Dark Effigy Lich Build does not rely on summons. You can think of it as a caster that mainly deals chaos damage. It can cause large-scale AOE damage and can avoid damage from melee enemies. It can be said to be an attack and defense in one. The disadvantage of this build is that it consumes a lot of mana.
B Tier builds either have low damage caps or very strict gear requirements. If you can’t meet the corresponding requirements, the damage of B Tier builds will be greatly reduced.
Flaming Smith of Kitava Build can deal large-scale damage and has high elemental resistance. However, its disadvantage is that its ability to resist physical damage is relatively weak, and it relies on stuns and stun accumulation.
C Tier and below builds are in a hard situation in the endgame. They have various problems, such as insufficient survivability, reliance on mana management, and low movement speed. This makes them very easy to die when facing powerful bosses. If you don’t particularly like this build, then it is not recommended to try it.
Leveling builds are only needed as a transition in the early campaign. Their own strength is not enough to deal with the content of the endgame, but good leveling builds can make your upgrade faster. The following are recommended leveling builds for each class.
The above are the builds worth using in Dawn of the Hunt. They can rely on their powerful damage-making capabilities to allow you to push every map in the endgame.
There are a lot of useless unique items in Path of Exile 2, some of which are even worse than rare items, so they are called the shame of unique items. But if you think all of they are not as good as top rare items, you are wrong.
You need to know which unique items are useful and use them. Even if you don’t need them for the time being, you can use them to exchange for currency.
Drops from: King in the Mists (Pinnacle Version)
Effect:
The benefits of this belt mainly depend on your rings. Fortunately, in POE 2, rings can bring very generous gains to players. They can provide characters with high elemental resistance, or increase the character’s casting speed and mana, etc.
The utility belt, which can increase the effect by about 50%, is already very valuable, but it can still be replaced by other rare belts. The belt that can increase the effect of the ring by 70-80% is more sought after by players.
Drops from: Random Enemy Drop
Effect:
10% of skill mana consumption is converted to life consumption.
Tangletongue Forked Spear seems to have a relatively low DPS, but in fact, its main part of increasing damage comes from Forks Critical Hits. This is the best spear for the critical hit school, and almost all Amazon master players have one.
If you want to get this spear, you need to have at least a dozen Divine Orbs, otherwise you need to buy POE 2 currency.
Drops from: Olroth, Origin of the Fall
Effect:
The biggest use of this unique Life Flask is that it can restore life immediately. Ordinary Life Flasks all slowly restore some of your life over a few seconds, and the amount of restoration is less than Olroth’s Resolve Ultimate Life Flask.
It can restore more than 1,000 of your life in one go, and the excess part will not be wasted and can be converted into Guard. Whether in a boss battle or on a farming map, it can save you from emergencies.
Drops from: Arbiter of Ash
Effect:
This sceptre is perfect for Witch players, as it increases the fire damage of minions, heals them, and weakens enemy resistance, thus improving the ability of summoned troops all around.
In addition, as a unique sceptre, it can also provide 100 Spirit as a secondary, which can be used in most builds that deal element damage.
Drops from: King in the Mists (Pinnacle Version)
Effect:
This gem allows you to assign a passive node to any location in the passive tree, as long as it is within the range of the keystone that can randomly generate this gem. For nodes outside the gem range, you must link them to your talent tree, and the areas where From Nothing Diamond can be embedded are mainly on the edges of the skill tree.
Drops from: Random Enemy Drop
Effect:
This helmet can be used in conjunction with Execute. The effect of Execute is that you increase damage to low health enemies by 40%. With this helmet, you will be much more efficient in farming POE 2 currency.
Drops from: Random Enemy Drop in Act 3
Effect:
A unique helmet that is perfect for tanks, Atziri’s Disdain Gold Circlet also increases item rarity, which will help you when you are farming for any item.
Drops from: Random Enemy Drop
Effect:
This unique belt doesn’t have any fancy effects, it simply provides you with armor and fire resistance, which is why it is particularly useful. In addition, in Dawn Of The Hunt, it is very suitable for Smith of Kitava.
The above are some of the best unique items in Path of Exile 2 at present. They may not be the most valuable, but they are in great demand among players.
Since the release of Path of Exile 2 Dawn of the Hunt, players have had a love-hate relationship with it. It has updated a lot of new content to play, and you and your friends must have had a lot of fun pioneering Dawn of the Hunt, but you must have also been beaten by monsters that are several times stronger.
The unpleasantness of Dawn of the Hunt will soon be improved, and Patch 0.2.1 is coming on May 28. Although this update will not bring any new classes or new Ascendancy, the content of this update is enough to be called a big update.
In Patch 0.2.1, players will feel less pressure to complete the build, because the loot drops will be more and better.
Players have long complained about the low drop rate of POE 2 items, and the developers of POE 2 have promised to improve it in the next update. Patch 0.2.1 will not only significantly increase the drop rate of unique items, but will also further rework some of the less-than-good unique items.
Rogue Exiles are special monsters that can provide players with unique items. In the next update, there will be Rogue Exiles with new unique items, and their item drop rate will be tripled!
Besides unique items, Patch 0.2.1 will also add new socket items: 22 Runes, 14 Soul Cores and 7 Talismans, which can bring you crazy boosts, but they are also destined to be very rare, and you may need to buy POE 2 currency to get them.
According to the statistics of the developers, the probability of Hidden Grotto appearing in the endgame is quite high. Therefore, in order to avoid players getting repeated game experiences, Patch 0.2.1 will adjust the spawn rate of each map, and you will rarely encounter the situation of repeated maps.
In addition, the spawning of Citadel has also been adjusted. Now, whenever a citadel is spawned on the map, the two other citadels spawned nearby must be different. This will prevent players from entering the same citadel and being unable to get three Crisis Fragments.
More changes in Patch 0.2.1 are concentrated in the endgame. First is Ritual, and in this endgame activity, players can sacrifice monsters to the altar, summon powerful enemies, kill them and then continue to sacrifice.
Players can get tributes in this process, and tributes can be exchanged for Ritual rewards. Ritual has many particularly valuable rewards, such as Omens and unique items. These items have a very low probability of appearing, making them particularly valuable. Different Omens can be exchanged for 10 or even 100 Divine Orbs.
Patch 0.2.1 will greatly increase the probability of Omens appearing in rewards, and players will have a chance to get more rare Omens.
Similar changes will be made to Corrupted Essences, which will be 6 times more likely to appear when you use Vaal Orbs on monsters trapped in them!
Twisted Domain is a special map related to Breach where players can fight enemies coming from all directions and finally fight the pinnacle boss, Xesht, We That Are One.
In the upcoming update, the monsters in Twisted Domain will change. It will no longer be just the bosses that are valuable. The number of monsters will increase, and their rarity will increase. This will improve the quality of the loot you get, and you will get more unique items and currency, and Breach Rings will appear in them.
Expedition will receive a major overhaul in Patch 0.2.1. As one of the important activities in the endgame, Expedition is far behind other activities in terms of difficulty and rewards, so the developers have made the following adjustments:
The game simplifies the search method of key nodes. You can enter the node in the text box and confirm it, and you will automatically jump to the location of this node on the talent tree. If there are multiple nodes, continue to press Enter to automatically jump.
You can hover the mouse over Atlas map to see the source of the map modifier, which allows players to find specific modifiers.
In short, the main update direction of Patch 0.2.1 is to improve the player’s experience. Players can more easily get various resources, shortening the time required for player growth, and it can be seen that the developers have indeed listened to the feedback of players.
Witch in Path of Exile 2 is very similar to Necromancer in Diablo 4, both of which use minions to bulldoze enemies. However, builds that rely on summons have a common problem, which it’s that if they lose the protection of the summons, they will become very weak.
Therefore, players who choose to summon minions should know which are the strongest summons, otherwise you will waste your Spirit.
Bind Spectre is the latest Skill Gem added in Dawn of the Hunt. It allows you to capture the souls of slain monsters and resurrect them as your minions.
Its actual power lies in its rich selection, summoning some of the most powerful allies in the game, who can act as your damage dealers or supporters.
You don’t need to buy POE 2 currency for it, because Bind Spectre can be obtained through normal Uncut Skill Gems.
Here are the recommended spectres:
DPS Spectres
Support Spectres
These towering Skeletal Brute are designed for defense, with powerful attacks that can destroy most well-prepared enemies, and it takes 51 Spirit to use this skill.
They are good at locking threats and absorbing attacks. However, because of their colossal size, they sometimes linger in narrow entrances and cannot enter accurately, which slows down their movement in small spaces.
Several Skeletal Clerics can effectively relieve the pressure on your army of minions and maintain the survival of all skeletons. They will provide solid healing support for other skeletons. Even better, they can also revive fallen skeletons in battle to keep your army constantly replenished, but they will not cause any damage, so don’t arrange too many Skeletal Clerics in your team.
Skeletal Frost Mage is the summon that Witch relies on most when farming currency. They can freeze enemies with freezing attacks and have powerful crowded control capabilities. Their Ice Bomb skill has a large area of effect, and not only does it deal a lot of damage, but it also applies a freezing effect, slowing down all enemies in the blast radius. Their weakness is the same as that of Mage, which is that they are a bit fragile.
You can even build around Skeletal Frost Mage, but you will need to use Jeweler’s Orb to open new slots for Skeletal Frost Mage to accommodate more Support Gems.
Here are the required Support Gems:
Skeletal Reavers have high attack damage and can be commanded to enter Rage state to further increase their damage output. In this state, they will constantly sacrifice some health points. Therefore, you need a Skeletal Cleric to constantly replenish their status.
Regardless, they are still easy to die, leaving gaps in your undead army’s defense. If you are looking for efficiency in farming currency, then these are the best choice.
Skeletal Arsonists add powerful firepower to your minion army by using Explosive Demise skill, detonating low-health minions for massive damage. They can turn your dead minions into walking bombs. However, they will deplete your minion count, so if you need more defense, try to summon them as little as possible.
Skeleton Snipers are deadly and taking little Spirit. They fire piercing arrows that tear through enemies, and can be ordered to use Gas Cloud, which covers the battlefield with a flammable poisonous cloud, causing continuous damage, and then ignites enemies for a violent explosion.
The downside of Skeletal Snipers is that they don’t have enough instant damage, but they are great for early Witch transitions.
Skeletal Storm Mage is similar to Skeletal Frost Mage, but their Death Storm can only summon a lightning area effect on dead skeletons. It’s powerful, but it depends on the specific situation and requires some dead allies to really work.
They complement Skeletal Frost Mage, making the damage more diverse in the team.
Skeletal Warrior is your melee powerhouse, providing reliable frontline support with its powerful slashing attack. They are good at absorbing attacks and keeping the enemy busy - but they can’t resist powerful elite enemies in the later stages.
Raise Zombie’s Zombies require corpses to summon them. They are tough, powerful, and do not consume Spirit, making them a good economic choice. However, they don’t survive for long, and if you encounter an environment without corpses, you will be helpless.
There are not many different kinds of followers in Path of Exile 2 at present, but they are enough for you to level up and farm currency steadily in the early stages of the game. As the game progresses, the more powerful your minions are, the better your gaming experience will be!
For most POE 2 players, it takes about 10 hours to complete the first three acts. After experiencing the currently open plot, players need to spend most of their time in the endgame content.
Most builds require a lot of currency to be formally formed, and the endgame map is where a large amount of resources can really be produced. The endgame gameplay of Path of Exile 2 is very rich. You can trigger different map events here, and activities with different rewards will also appear randomly in the game. So which maps have the most valuable rewards and are most worth farming?
Expedition first appeared in POE 1, and it became more interesting in the endgame of Path of Exile 2. Players need to collect Artifacts and Logbooks in Expedition, and then exchange the items you need with relevant NPCs.
Compared to other activities, Expedition’s monster population is not very dense, but it does produce some rare enemies. In addition, Expedition’s Pinnacle Boss is not too powerful, so the unique items it drops are not too precious. Although its gameplay is interesting, the rewards of Expedition maps are not attractive enough compared to other maps.
Breach was a very popular map in patch 0.1. It can produce numerous monsters, and with the appropriate Atlas skill tree’s passive points, players can steadily farm the currency they want. As long as you take a long time on this map, you can exchange almost any item, and you even don‘t need to buy POE 2 currency any more!
In Dawn of the Hunt update, Breach is still very good, but other map activities have also been improved, so Breach is a little mediocre. Breach Splinters can be used to challenge Breach’s Pinnacle Boss. Breach Catalysts and Breach Rings are also very useful items.
Delirium activities will enhance the monsters in the map. When you enter Delirium mirrors, you will face waves of monsters. There is also a chance that the boss Omniphobia or Kosis, The Revelation will appear in the monster siege. These two bosses are not Pinnacle Boss, but they are both difficult to deal with.
Distilled Emotions are very useful drops. They can not only be used in the amulets, but also on Waystones to affect the monsters that appear on the map.
The content of Rituals requires you to kill monsters and offer them to the altar. By accumulating contributions, you can unlock Tribute. The most important reward is Audience with the King, as it allows you to challenge Pinnacle Boss. Another valuable reward that only appears in Rituals is Omens.
Omens are the top currency in Path of Exile 2. They have various effects and even affect the effects of other currencies. Here are the special rewards you can get in Rituals:
Towers is a map that many players hate very much. Although it has been improved a little, it still doesn’t make people want to farm Towers.
Towers is a very important node in the endgame. It can affect several maps in the surrounding area, so no matter how much you hate it, you must clear the monsters in the tower. This will allow you to unlock Precursor Tablet Slots.
After unlocking Precursor Tablet Slots, you can insert Precursor Tablets to affect nearby maps to make them more likely to have the activities you want, such as Rituals or Delirium.
There are currently only 5 Unique Maps on the endgame map. Completing these Unique Maps will not produce any unique items, but will provide Atlas Skill Tree Passive Points.
League activities such as Rituals and Delirium have their own Atlas Skill Tree. If you want to improve your record of encountering rare monsters in league activities, or want to get more currency drops in league activities, then you must collect Atlas Skill Tree Passive Points.
Cleaning up corrupted areas on the map is another way to gain Atlas Tree points. You can see the dark red area on the map, which is the corrupted map. After you enter this map, you will encounter many corrupted monsters, which are stronger than ordinary monsters.
There are two bosses on the corrupted map, one is a corrupted boss, and the other is a normal boss. You need to defeat them both to purify this area. After clearing the corrupted map, besides being able to get 2 Atlas Skill Tree Passive Points, the player has a high chance of obtaining a Fracturing Orb. Fracturing Orb is a new currency added to the new league, which can play a very critical role in the production of high-level items, and is also very rare.
Atlas Skill Tree is divided into ordinary map branches and boss branches. To get Atlas Skill Tree Boss Passive Points, then you have to face the most hard boss in the game, Arbiter of Ash.
To challenge Arbiter of Ash, you need to collect three fragments:
If you can successfully defeat Arbiter of Ash, besides Atlas Skill Tree Boss Passive Points, the unique items it drops are also valuable. Before you challenge it, make sure your build is in the best condition.
Most players should be able to feel this. The higher the difficulty of a map, the more generous the rewards are, so challenge the difficulties!
