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 after defeating Act III's final boss and speaking with Doryani.
3. Locate a map with the Hideout symbol on the Atlas of Worlds (this is usually quick).
4. Defeat all monsters in the map area.

Access your Hideout via the waypoint menu, using the Fleur-de-lis symbol on the right, or by typing /hideout in the game chat.

What Types of Hideouts Exist?

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

Hideout Customization

Your Hideout is your canvas! Arrange and decorate freely. Move, rotate, add, and replace objects and NPCs. Import and export designs to share with friends!

Strategically place essential NPCs like Doryani (item identification), Ketzuli (disenchanting), and Alva (currency exchange) near the entrance for easy access. Don't forget your Stashes and Waypoint! Remember, while efficiency is key, aesthetics matter too—other players might visit!

Congratulations on learning how to unlock your Hideout in PoE2! Enjoy your personalized sanctuary in Wraeclast!
