This Path of Exile 2 guide focuses on the Trial of the Sekhemas, an endgame activity providing valuable loot. While not a main quest, it's crucial for early progression.
This guide covers unlocking and completing the Trial.
Unlocking the Trial of the Sekhemas:
Defeating Balbala the Traitor, located in Traitor's Passage (Act 2), is key. She's a challenging early-game boss, but victory yields Balbala's Barya.
After defeating Balbala, navigate to the Trial of the Sekhemas via the Ardura travel map or Waypoint. You'll find a ruined temple where Balbala, now an advisor, awaits. Place Balbala's Barya on the Relic Altar to initiate the Trial.
