Reworked Endgame and Runes of Aldur

Return of the Ancients brings a complete rework to Path of Exile 2's endgame. You now progress through new questlines, explore dedicated regions of the Atlas to find league mechanics, and meet with the Masters of the Atlas to further customize your endgame farming.

Additionally, in the Runes of Aldur Challenge League, players find Ezomyte Remnants guarded by monsters. Defeating the monsters allows you to select rewards, which resurrects them empowered with buffs tied to your choice. You must then kill the monsters again to gain the selected loot.
