This guide covers the Trial of the Sekhemas in Path of Exile 2, a challenging endgame activity offering valuable loot. While not part of the main storyline, it significantly aids early character progression.
The Trial of the Sekhemas, reminiscent of the Sanctum from the first game, presents a rewarding yet demanding challenge. This guide provides essential information for success.
To begin, defeat Balbala the Traitor, located in Traitor's Passage within Act 2. Balbala's swift, powerful attacks make this a difficult early-game encounter. Upon victory, she drops Balbala's Barya, crucial for accessing the Trial.
After defeating Balbala, travel to the Trial's location via the Ardura travel map or Waypoint. You'll find a ruined temple where Balbala, now acting as a guide, awaits. Place Balbala's Barya on the Relic Altar to commence your Trial run.
