Path of Exile 2 Hideout Guide

In Path of Exile 2, the hideout system is still inherited from the previous game Path of Exile 1. It is a key mechanism for players to customize and optimize their character's daily activity center. The hideout is not only a private base in terms of visual and functional aspects, but also an important base for mapping, trading, and crafting. With a hideout, you can directly open the other world, which will be much more convenient.

Unlocking Methods and Types of Hideouts

Unlocking methods

1. You need to complete the three chapters in the main storyline, and complete them once in normal and brutal difficulty. Both challenges must be completed to unlock the world map. After completing these tasks, you can find an NPC named "Doriani" and talk to him to officially unlock the world map.
2. After unlocking the world map, you need to pay attention to the hideout instructions on the map. You can find the hideout signs on any previously completed map. Each hideout will have an icon indicating the specific location you can go to.
3. After finding the hideout, go to the location. You will encounter some enemies and a boss. In order to successfully unlock the hideout, you need to defeat these enemies. If you don't clear these enemies, the hideout will continue to remain locked, so be sure to resolve these threats first.
4. After unlocking the hideout, you can quickly enter it through the teleportation menu in the game. If you have unlocked multiple hideouts, you can also easily switch between them, so that you can use different spaces as needed.

Functional Configuration of the Hideout

The hideout is not only a decorative space, but also a core base for character growth and map brushing efficiency:

Map device: put in the map ticket to start map exploration.

Manufacturing station: manually enchant equipment or replace affixes.

Merchant NPC: provide exchange, task or production options.

Warehouse box: store character props, currency.

Teleport point: quickly enter and exit the hideout, communicate/trade with towns/friends.

Decorations: only for beautification, can be freely arranged, affect the atmosphere but no combat bonus.

Practical Suggestions for the Hideout

1. Put commonly used NPCs near the teleport point to save time and improve map brushing efficiency.
2. Line up the map device near the teleport point + warehouse box.
3. Use the teleportation door to decorate and mark the functional area.

Avoid complex terrain or decorations, pay attention to the light source layout in the night style hideout.
