Unlike many PoE2 quests that involve straightforward boss kills, Ancient Vows requires a bit more exploration. The quest activates upon obtaining either the Sun Clan Relic or the Kabala Clan Relic. These relics are found within the Bone Pits and Keth, respectively, requiring thorough exploration and combat. Their drops are random, so patience is key.

After acquiring a relic, head to the Valley of the Titans. Due to randomized map generation, precise locations are impossible to give, but look for a waypoint; a large statue with an altar is usually nearby. Place the relic on the altar by dragging and dropping it into the designated slot.

Rewards:

Upon completion, choose between two passive effects:

• 30% increased Charm Charge gain
• 15% increased Mana recovery from Flasks

Should you change your mind, you can return to the altar to switch effects. However, be prepared for a potential return trip through hazardous areas.

While the rewards may seem modest at first glance, the impact on Charm usage and survivability in boss fights is significant. The increased Charm Charge gain extends the duration of your defensive Charms, while increased Mana recovery from Flasks is beneficial if you frequently deplete your Mana.
