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 quick.
4. Defeat all monsters in the map area.

To access your Hideout, use the waypoint menu and select the Fleur-de-lis symbol. Alternatively, type /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 containing additional Hideouts. There are four types in total: Felled, Limestone, Shrine, and Canal. Speak with Alva to switch between them.

Hideout Customization

Once you have your Hideout, the possibilities are endless. Arrange and decorate freely; rotate, move, add, and replace items and decorations. You can even import and export designs to share with other players!

For optimal efficiency, consider placing 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, as other players might visit.

Congratulations! You're now ready to establish your personal haven in Wraeclast. Enjoy customizing your Hideout to perfectly suit your needs and style!
