While the narrative in Path of Exile 2 may not rival the depth and variability of The Witcher 3, it compensates with intriguing side quests that challenge players. A prime example is the Ancient Vows quest in Act Ancient Vows. Though seemingly straightforward, its ambiguous instructions can leave many players puzzled.

In Path of Exile 2, quests typically guide you to specific locations to confront designated bosses. Ancient Vows follows this pattern, but with a twist: it lacks precise directions on where to go or who to defeat. Fortunately, with our guide, completing this quest becomes manageable!

How to complete this quest?
The Ancient Vows quest automatically appears in your journal upon acquiring either the Sun Clan Relic or the Kabala Clan Relic. These relics are concealed in perilous areas: the Bone Pits and Keth. You'll need to delve deep into these zones, battling monsters and exploring every corner to find them. The relics drop randomly from enemies, so patience and skill are essential. After obtaining a relic, your journey continues to the Valley of the Titans, a place shrouded in mystery and danger.
Since the game's maps are randomly generated, pinpointing exact locations is impossible. However, upon entering the Valley of the Titans, search for a waypoint. Near it, you should find a large statue with an altar. To proceed, highlight the relic and drag it into the corresponding slot on the altar.

Rewards for this quest
Your rewards won't keep you waiting! You can choose between two passive effects:
- 30% increased Charm Charge gain
- 15% increased Mana recovery from Flasks
If you're unsure about your initial choice, you can switch to the other effect by revisiting the altar where you made your first selection. This process, however, requires effort, as you may need to navigate through potentially hostile areas again. Be prepared for any challenges that arise during your return journey, as the path back is as significant as the choice itself.

At first, these rewards might not seem remarkable. However, understanding the role of Charms in Path of Exile 2 reveals their importance in bolstering your defenses. By using situationally appropriate Charms, you can significantly enhance your survivability in boss fights. Like flasks, Charms use Charges, so the bonus from Ancient Vows can extend your endurance in tough battles. If your Mana Flask often depletes during intense encounters, the second bonus becomes increasingly valuable.
