В Path of Exile 2 There are many side quests that offer bonuses in the form of equipment or various character enhancements for completing them. Mushrooms in Act 3 is one of them. The main difficulty of this hidden quest is its absence from the journal. All you can focus on when completing it is the description of the items and the main character's comments.
In this guide we will tell you what to do with mushrooms in PoE 2. We will show you where to find them and who to give them to to get a reward.
Where to find all mushrooms in PoE 2
While exploring the location The Desecrated Summit, which you will have to visit during the quest "Legacy of the Vaal", it is worth paying attention to the loot that drops from monsters. In this area, you can find red, green and blue mushrooms.
Search the location thoroughly, trying to clear the entire map from the fog of war. Sooner or later you will come across strange green and blue mushrooms. They can be found in the thickets of the corresponding color. The appearance of each of these items near the character is accompanied by a ringing sound, and a green mark of the quest item appears on the mini-map.
After collecting the first two, continue clearing the location of monsters until one of them drops red mushroom. If there are no mobs left on the map and the item you need for the quest still hasn't dropped, move to the camp and use the teleporter to return to the Corrupted Summit. Before teleporting hold down the Ctrl key to recreate the location.
What to do with mushrooms in Path of Exile 2
Having collected multi-colored mushrooms (red, blue, green mushroom) in your inventory, find a special place with an NPC in the same location Keeper of the Cauldron.
Where to find the Cauldron Keeper
The Cauldron Keeper in PoE 2 is located in the Corrupted Summit location, in an area called Seething Shelter. There is always a checkpoint near key places on the map, focus on it. Go up the stairs and, if you see the inscription on the screen "The Quiet Old Woman", so you've come to the right place. There's a cauldron in this place, and a Keeper is sitting next to her, you can trade with her. To complete the quest, click on the cauldron three times, after each click the flame underneath it will flare up.
Rewards for completing the quest
Once all quest items from the inventory are placed in the cauldron, blue HP and Mana flasks with random modifiers will drop out of it. The characteristics of the items depend on the build and level of the character, so they can be both useful and not so useful. In any case, these flasks initially have a fairly high percentage of quality.
