The Trial of the Sekhemas in Path of Exile 2 is an endgame activity, similar to the Sanctum from the first game. It's a valuable source of loot, but can be challenging for less powerful characters. While not essential to the main storyline, it significantly contributes to early character progression. This guide outlines key aspects of this activity.

How to Unlock the Trial of the Sekhemas in Path of Exile 2

To access the Trial, defeat Balbala the Traitor, located in Traitor's Passage (Act 2). She's a formidable opponent early on, but defeating her yields Balbala's Barya – the key to entering the Trial.

After defeating Balbala, travel to the Trial of the Sekhemas location (accessible via the Ardura's travel map or waypoint). Balbala will act as your guide. Place Balbala's Barya on the Relic Altar to begin your Trial.
