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 again on Hard difficulty.
2. Unlock the Atlas of Worlds after defeating Act III's final boss and speaking with Doryani.
3. Locate a map featuring 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 (look for the Fleur-de-lis symbol) or by typing /hideout in the game chat.

What Types of Hideouts Exist?

Initially, you'll have access to one Hideout type. Discovering additional Hideouts on the Atlas of Worlds unlocks more options. Ultimately, you can choose from four distinct Hideout types: Felled, Limestone, Shrine, and Canal. To switch, speak with Alva and select your preferred Hideout.

Hideout Customization

Your Hideout is your canvas. Arrange and decorate freely! Move, rotate, and add objects and NPCs. Import designs from others or export your own.

Strategically place essential NPCs like Doryani (item identification), Ketzuli (disenchanting), and Alva (currency exchange) near the entrance. Don't forget Stashes and a Waypoint for convenience. Remember, aesthetics matter! Other players might visit, so make it a visually appealing space.
