The career sublimation in Path of Exile 2 is a very important key point in the game. Each profession has two sublimation routes. There are two types of sublimation trials, one is the Silkma Trial and the other is the Chaos Trial. You can choose one of these two trials to challenge. Let's take a look at the Silkma Trial of the Wraeclast tribe.

Path of Exile 2 Equipment Purchase


After the main quest advances to Chapter 2, enter the Traitor's Passage, find the door of Ancient Seal on the map, unlock the seal, kill the traitor Barbara, and you can unlock the sublimation trial and start a new journey of job transfer.

Barbara is a big challenge in the early stage because it can be invisible and release poison gas. You need to find and kill it quickly, otherwise you may die from the poison gas.

After defeating Barbara, you will get the Giant Coin item. With it, you can return to the Adula Caravan and give it to Zaka to complete the task, and you can unlock the Silkma Trial map, which is the location of the sublimation trial.

There are 4 trials in total. If you complete all of them, you will get 8 talents for sublimation.

There is a chance that Giant Coin will be dropped when you kill monsters. This is the key to open the sublimation trial.

When you complete the Silkma Trial map for the first time, challenge the BOSS Earth Crusher. This is a roguelike-style challenge. Please note that Honor is your health. When you are hit by monsters in the trial, you will lose honor. Once the honor is 0, the trial will fail.


Each level of the sublimation trial has its own characteristics. Choose the appropriate route according to different mechanisms and challenges, and plan carefully to ensure that the Honor is sufficient. Note that holy water and holy objects will also drop during the process of killing monsters. Holy Water can be exchanged for honor in some levels to purchase attribute BUFF and other functions. The levels of the sublimation trial include the following:

Death Crystal

Players need to click on the crystal to start the timer, and light up all the crystals one by one within the limited time to pass the level. Be sure to be careful to avoid the attacks of the monsters along the way.

Iron Man Trial

You need to operate the handle to open the key door after passing through many mechanisms. Note that you need to walk slowly. If you are not careful, you may be injured by the flames, which will damage your honor value.

Hourglass

If you survive within the time limit, you will face the challenge of several elite monsters. Be careful to avoid their attacks. If you have the ability, you can try to kill them, because they will drop rich item rewards after killing them.

Sacrifice Trial

After completing the monster challenge around the glowing door, you should also pay attention to the glowing doors that may appear around, which may bring additional challenges and rewards.

Blood Holy Grail

During the trial, click the Holy Grail and kill all the elite monsters in the map to pass it smoothly.

After completing the trial, you can see the Sublimation Altar. Click the altar to select the profession you want to sublimate.

Note: this decision is permanent for your character, so make your choice carefully.
