Path of Exile: Achieving Ascendancy - Here's How

Ascendancy allows you to specialize your class throughout the game. Read about what requirements must be met and what steps to take afterwards.

Even stronger: Ascendancy gives your PoE character a specialization.

Choosing an Ascendant will make your character even stronger. For example, the Ranger can specialize as a Sniper via Ascendancy, increasing her ranged damage.

Path of Exile: Ascendancy possible from level 33

The Ascendancy works as follows:

• You must reach level 33.
• In addition, you must have mastered all six trials of the Ascendant. The first test you will find in the first act, two more in the second act and the remaining three in the third act.
• Thereupon you will have access to the maze. This consists of various sections and the focus is the fight against Izaro, which you must defeat over several stages.
• Izaro is the strongest boss in the game up to that point, which is due in no small part to his massive health pool.

Should you master this task, you can choose a specialization and receive the first two ascendancy points, which you can assign in the special tree. There are another two points each in the later three mazes, which become accessible at level 55, 68 and 75. Insgesamt bekommen Sie somit acht Punkte für die Spezialisierung und können Ihren Charakter auf diese Weise entscheidend verstärken.
