Path of Exile 2: Trial of the Sekhemas Guide

This guide explores Path of Exile 2's Trial of the Sekhemas, a challenging endgame activity offering valuable loot. While not part of the main storyline, it's crucial for early progression and provides a significant loot source for sufficiently powerful characters.

Unlocking the Trial of the Sekhemas

To access the Trial, you must defeat Balbala the Traitor in Act 2's Traitor's Passage. Balbala is a formidable early-game opponent, but defeating her yields Balbala's Barya – the key to unlocking the Trial.

After victory, travel to the Trial's location via the Ardura travel map or waypoint. Upon arrival, place Balbala's Barya on the Relic Altar to begin your run. Balbala herself will serve as your guide within the Trial.
