How to Unlock a Hideout in Path of Exile 2

Unlocking your Hideout requires completing several steps:

1. Complete Act III twice – once on Normal and once on Hard difficulty.
2. Unlock the Atlas of Worlds by defeating the final boss of Act III and speaking with Doryani.
3. Locate a map with the Hideout symbol on the Atlas of Worlds. This is usually straightforward.
4. Defeat all monsters in the map area.

Access your Hideout via the waypoint menu (look for the Fleur-de-lis symbol) or by typing /hideout in the game chat.

What Types of Hideouts Exist?

Initially, you'll only have access to one Hideout type. To unlock others, explore the Atlas of Worlds for maps featuring additional Hideouts. There are four types in total: Felled, Limestone, Shrine, and Canal. Switch between them by interacting with Alva and selecting the desired option.

Hideout Customization

Once you have your Hideout, unleash your creativity! Arrange and decorate freely; move, rotate, add, and replace objects and NPCs. You can even import and export designs to share with other players!

For optimal efficiency, position essential NPCs like Doryani (item identification), Ketzuli (disenchanting), and Alva (currency exchange) near the entrance. Don't forget your Stashes and Waypoint! Remember, aesthetics matter too—other players might visit!

Congratulations! You're now ready to establish your personalized haven in Wraeclast. Enjoy customizing your Hideout to your liking!
