Quick Links
So, you’ve cleared Act 1 ofTitan Quest2, and now you’re wondering, “Just what on Earth can I do next?” While I’m sure new Acts are coming, it’s not immediately obvious what to do after the culmination of the first act.
You will be teleported back toPyrgos, the main hub, with very little direction. Luckily for you, the key to more gameplay isvery close by.
10 Games That Will Make You An ARPG Fan
With less focus on decision-making and more on customization and combat, these games will have you falling in love in no time.
The Ritual Shrine will allow you to do all sorts of things to addplenty more hours to your journey, from allowing you tomodify your attributestorefreshing boss fights, and evenaltering the levelsof the monsters in the game world.
If you don’t want to restart with a new character just yet, this guide will show you everything that can be done with the Ritual Shrine.
Ritual Shrine Location
To find the Shrine, simply teleport back to the Pyrgos central hub and then head in thenorthwest direction.Head west from Lanthe, the woman to whom you give the Ancient Embers, and then head north. You can’t miss it!
While you probably found this early in your playthrough, there’s not really much that can be done until later on, when you level up a bit more,so save this for later.
Ritual of Athena
The first and most basic function of the Shrine is the Ritual of Athena. By selecting this option, you will be granted the ability toreallocate all of the Attribute pointsthat you have accrued so far.
For example, if you invested a bunch of points intoAgilityand don’t understand how the system works, you can withdraw those points and instead invest them into something likeVigorandMight, which may work better for your build. This freedom allows you to try out different types of builds within the same mastery options if you fancy a new playstyle.
12 Underrated ARPGs You Need To Play
The underdogs of action RPGs
While you may not be able to change yourMasteries(those choices are very much stuck in stone), you may try focusing on a new ability or attack that utilizes, for example,Cunninginstead ofResolve. Messing with these options is crucial for optimizing your gameplay.
Just beware,this choice isn’t cheap, and it gets more expensive depending on the amount of Attribute points you wish to reallocate.
You can also switch the difficulty from Neophyte to Normal here.
Ritual of Ares
Now the Rituals of Ares are a touch more complicated and will allow you to modify the world to your liking. You’re definitely going to want to come back here after completing the first act,and once you’ve saved up a fair bit of cash.
Respawn Enemies
I’ll start with the most basic one first to get it out of the way. This option is very cheap andallows you to respawn every single mobthat you have cleared out thus far.
You may have noticed that killing normal enemies clears them out of the area permanently, even when you leave and then come back. Seeing as though this is an open world, designed and not procedurally generated, each area remembers your progress.
Now,if you’re struggling with a bossand have either completed all the world quests or can’t be bothered with them, you can just respawn the areas at the highest level available and then run through them once more to get a bunch of well-needed XP.
In some cases,this is actually more efficient than completing questsand will earn you the mastery points needed to upgrade your build.
Increase or Decrease Difficulty
This next option is another great way to earn more XP, even after you’ve completed the first act. Here you can increase the levels of the enemies in the worldby up to 5 times, for a cost, of course.
Naturally, they will become stronger, with higher HP and more damaging attacks, but they will also net you moreXP, allowing you to become stronger in tandem. If you want a real challenge, increase the levels of the enemies by 5 to get better loot.
This level increase also works on bosses, so be careful of going too high!
If you find yourself getting absolutely demolished by the world’s enemies, there is an option todecrease the levelsonce more. You can’t go under the base level, of course, so if you’re really struggling, perhaps try restarting on the beginner difficulty.
Elevate Enemy Levels in Previous Areas
This next Ritual is going to work nicely with the previous option. This allows you to make every enemy in the worldmatch the level that you are currently at. This means that even those crabs that you beat upon waking up at the shore are now going to match your level.
Now, for example, I finished the main quest at level 20 and then used this option to make everything else level 20 also. Then, I used the previous Ritual to scale up every single enemy in the world by 1.Now everything that I encounter is level 21,and will allow me to keep playing and gaining more levels even though I’ve technically beaten the campaign.
It only shows 0 cost here because I’ve already done the ritual. This is also a very expensive option, depending on what level you are at. It was over 10,000 for me.
Of course, for both of these rituals, if you feel like you’ve gone too far,you can also choose to reset themto return to the original game experience.
You can keep repeating this process of scaling the enemies' levels to your level and then bumping them up by +5 to keep leveling until you reach thecurrent level cap of 40.Upon reaching 40, you can no longer gain experience or upgrade any more of your mastery abilities.
Acquiring Remnants & Re-fighting Bosses
This next part is one of the main methods you’re going to be using to keep grinding even after finishing. You may have noticed that after killing certain bosses,they drop something called aremnant. This loot drop is kind of purple/burgundy in colour, but it won’t appear in your inventory.
You can take this remnant to the Ritual Shrine and then offer it to unlock the ability to re-fight that specific boss.

For anyone struggling with the Ritual Event in Path of Exile II, this guide will show you the best way to tackle it and make some profit.
To battle them again,you must first go to the Memory Knot, shown on the map by the little white knot symbol, and then pay a small fee to re-summon the boss in their arena.
While the price may seem a little steep, you’ll easily recoup the cashif you just sell everything that drops from the boss. It’s well worth the investment, especially if you end up finding a
The bosses that can be re-fought are:
There is no remnant for the Gryphon, since you can’t travel back to the prologue area.
You can use the rituals of Ares to bump up the levels of these bosses in order to get more XP and better levels of loot. These are all the available options at this moment in time, and form the effective endgame of TitanQuest 2.
