Ruler's labyrinth in a cruel world. Walkthrough "Path of Exile: Labyrinth of the Ruler"

The labyrinth begins with passing tests.

Immediately, a clarification about the tests - they affect all characters in the league, so it is enough to go through them once per league.

To access the first labyrinth, you need to pass 6 tests. Here is where to find them - Act 1 - Prison Dungeon, Act 2 - Crypt and Chamber of Sins 2nd floor, Act 3 - Crematorium and Catacombs and Act 4 - Green Labyrinth

To access the second labyrinth, you must go through the first labyrinth and three more trials. You should look for them starting from Act 6 - Prison Dungeon, Act 7 - Crypt and Chamber of Sins 2nd floor.

To access the third labyrinth, you need to go through the second and complete three more tests, which can be found in Act 8 - Baths, Act 9 - Tunnel and Act 10 - Ossuary

To access the last, so-called Uber maze, in addition to passing the previous labyrinths, you need to go through 6 more tests, which can only be found on maps. These tests will be similar to the ones that we passed earlier, only much more difficult.

Now let's look at what awaits us in the labyrinth itself.

One of the main dangers that we have already met and passed through which we could already practice is traps. With each subsequent labyrinth, they are more and more difficult. Once you learn how to overcome any traps without any problems, especially in an uber lab, it will already success.

It is important to know that traps do not care what your defense is, they hit as a percentage of health, so everyone dies on them.

What are the traps:

Various types of saws / rotating blades. I drank a lot, the meaning is the same - physical damage that is not reduced by armor, there is an opinion that it shakes you as a percentage of hp. Therefore, never play a race with saws, try to avoid them or run very fast through them. If you hit a saw and panic, and start running with the saw trying to overtake it, you are dead. Flasks with an instant heal are what can really save on a saw if a split second is not enough.

In my opinion saws are the most dangerous traps.

Dart. They fly from the walls, from the columns, and as soon as you slow down, some saw is already glad that you will not run away from it. There is little damage, but there is a lot of slowdown.

Fire. The stove opens and the floor becomes fiery. This is probably the simplest thing it should be easy not to stand in the fire, right?

Blades from the floor. Well, everything is simple here, gape - and it pierces you, one-time large physical damage is applied + blood flow is applied. Where they appear in the floor, holes are visible.

The blades in the doors are trying to catch you at the moment when you pass through the doorway. it is better not to rush and wait for the trap to work.

There are also razor blades. This is such a thing that knocks on the ground at regular intervals. I missed the moment - catch a one-time big damage.

On the tests of the uber labs, we will meet fonts for the first time - they can slow us down, cause blood flow, remove charges, just injure - in general, they cause inconvenience.

In addition, in the third and uber maze, we can meet Izar's pet Argus. This is such an animal:

You need to know that he hits quite painfully with pure physical damage, so you should be careful if you do not have very high physical defense. But there is one point that makes it easier to kill him. example of your golem. It is especially dangerous when he goes berserk.

When he dies, he will give you a key to open Izar's chests at the end of the labyrinth.

In addition, sometimes there are switches in the labyrinth. If you can’t deal with them, this video will help you (it’s in English, but you can visually see which switches are pressed, two options for the initial position of the switches are disassembled)

Well, Izar himself remains.

How can he surprise? Well, firstly, he has three types of weapons, on which his attacks and damage depend. A sword and a shield, two swords and a two-handed mace. The mace is the most dangerous weapon.

In addition, in final battle there are traps, and Izaro himself will try to teleport us to them. At this point, a green circle will appear around it, and if you stay in it, you will be carried away to the saws.

In the first lab, however, there are no traps in the final battle.

Secondly, with him there are 2 types of assistants who strengthen him.

These power-ups are an important point and should be taken into account. By killing them you will not get an additional key, but if your character is not too strong, then it is better not to risk it. If you do not kill the helpers, they will come to the aid of the isarius in the last battle.

Let's take it in order. The names of the assistants will be indicated by English language in order to make it easier for you to navigate through poelab

Charge Disruptors

Here's what they look like:

Gives Izaro charges that increase his damage and defense.

To remove charges from Izaro, you should click on the Charge Disruptor. In order to get an additional key, Izaro must accumulate at least 10 charges.

Conduits

Here's what they look like:

Increases Izaro's elemental damage depending on the type.

Kill or don't touch (Don't touch them at all).

Elemental Essence

Here's what they look like:

Golems provide additional elemental damage, resistances, and a chance to ignite/freeze/shock depending on the type of golem.

Kill or don't touch. If you kill, then keep Izar away from them - otherwise they will sit in it. The task is complicated by the fact that the golems go to the isarius.

Gargoyles

Here's what they look like:

Gives Izaro flask effects depending on the type of Gargoyle.

Kill or don't touch.

Fonts

Here's what they look like:

They put curses on you. Vulnerability, Temporal Bonds and Elemental Vulnerability.

After you demolish the font, an enhanced version of the curse is hung on you. Therefore, it is extremely necessary to have a flask from curses, otherwise you can stupidly “freeze” from the same fetters of time.

Kill or don't touch.

Idols

Here's what they look like:

Creates bubbles that explode a few seconds after spawning. Damage is high.

Turn off or don't touch.

Lieutenants

Here's what they look like:

Not very strong mobs that help Izaro in battle.

Kill or don't touch.

Portals

Portals summon skeleton mages. If you start the situation and do not have a strong AoE, there can actually be a lot of them.

Kill or don't touch.

This completes the list of helpers.

Answers to popular questions and just useful tips.

The most important thing in passing and farming labyrinths is the site poelab.com

There we can see the map of today's labyrinth, the weapons of Izaro and his assistants. From here we can conclude whether it is worth going there at all today.

1. Is it worth farming mazes for profit? - Worth it, but only the uber maze.
2. How much HP do you need to pass? - First 1k hp, second 2-2.5k hp, third 3.5k, uber 6k.

Of course, the numbers are relative, but highly desirable. It is also worth having 75% resists.

There is something to add - write in the comments)

A labyrinth in Path of Exile is a dungeon in which there are traps, various puzzles, as well as monsters. As the level ends, you can return to the labyrinth, while using the Statue of the Goddess, located in Sandria. In the labyrinth itself, you will find not only traps, but numerous Ascension trials, while one trap is hidden, which few people know about. But the trap cannot be found just like that, because it will be hidden randomly in any of the presented groups, where such a test is already considered fatal, for this we have prepared the passage of this labyrinth.

As the difficulty level increases, a new structure of rooms appears (the passage of the labyrinth becomes more difficult), where they remain the same for only one day. But the rooms themselves, in fact, are the same among themselves, but not all can match in terms of the accuracy of the layout. Absolutely every day, the structure of the rooms is changed. Of course, it’s not easy to get through, where there are special keys to open doors, but they will be behind hard-to-pass traps. If you open the room with the key, then a whole hall will appear, connecting several rooms.

After the player finds himself in this labyrinth, he will constantly meet with Izar. Each of your actions will affect subsequent battles. Where the first battle will continue until the health bar of your enemy reaches 2/3, after 1/3, and then you need to completely win. But in the last battle, do not forget that there will be traps and you must act carefully.

Exactly 45 minutes will be required for an experienced player who already knows what and what applies to. If you are in the labyrinth of the Ruler, then you will not have the right to teleport to the city, thus you will have to go through the labyrinth again. Accordingly, there are no restrictions in this game, and you can try all the methods of passing.

Initially, when you play the game for the first time, only the Ascension class will be available. Each time you play, you will receive points throughout the game, which can then be exchanged for skills. In this case, you can enchant items, but by choosing only one.
If one of the players passes the labyrinth faster than anyone on any of the days, then he is given a special prize with unique gems. And all the ratings about the passages, you can see on the official website. The higher the difficulty of the level, the higher the reward for it will be provided.

How to open and get into the labyrinth?

In order to be in the main labyrinth that we need, you must first find six small labyrinths, where they must first be found and passed.

• Stage 1: Prison dungeon (The Lower Prison);
• Stage 2: Chamber of Sins Level 2;
• Stage 2: Crypt, level 1 (The Crypt Level 1);
• Stage 3: The Crematorium;
• Stage 3: Catacombs (The Catacombs);
• Stage 3: The Hedge Maze - A full-fledged teleport was not originally provided for this map, but you can still get there if you get into it through The Imperial Gardens.

Thus, the main labyrinth will be located in the 3rd stage, which will be located in the city. Each of the mini-mazes must be completed once, thereby opening access to the main labyrinth, and this will be done forever, for the complexity on which you are passing.

Boss battles

In the main labyrinth, there are three difficult battles with Izar, who has versatility and image change, that is, with each battle, he will have assistants, but constantly different.

• First stage. At this stage, statues appear that will begin to help him. But they do not appear immediately, where there are two options for how to deal with the statues. This temporarily neutralize and destroy them permanently. After you find the only solution of them, then you will have to inflict subsequent damage already on the boss. If you do not deal with the statues, then he will have additional protection in the final moments, where it will not be so easy to defeat him.

• Second phase. At this stage, he is helped by small bosses, which are not as effective as the main boss, but can quite deal good damage. Their appearance occurs gradually, where you need to adhere to the same tactics. We remove the assistants, and then we straighten them with the boss.

• Third stage. At this stage, it is important for you to take a position so that the traps do not reach you in any way and can safely deal damage to the boss. But this is only at the moment when you have reached this stage without assistants, that is, you have dealt with them in the previous stages.

And also it is worth remembering that in one of the versions there is Izar, who knows how to use the teleport against you directly to the traps, which will complicate the task of fighting the boss.

After passing the third stage, you find yourself on new map. In it, you have the right to enchant some items, take an additional subclass, open chests that can be opened using the keys you found during the passage of the labyrinths.

It should be borne in mind that in the labyrinths such zones sometimes appear, which are called the "beast". If you find this zone and destroy it, then the future boss will be a much weaker opponent. Although this will make things easier for you, there won’t be much adrenaline in the passage, so it’s up to you to decide.

Traps in the Ruler's Labyrinth Path of Exile

Undoubtedly, there are traps in the labyrinths, but not of one type, but of several, which are not only dangerous, but also deadly things. Where they can take away not only the state of the shield, but also health. Most of the traps can be found in Trials of Ascension, where a considerable number of such traps are shown.

In some square areas there are spikes that are not immediately visible, because they appear after a certain amount of time. Moreover, some of these traps appear only when you step on them. The damage is about a quarter of your total health, which means that it includes not only health, but also your shield. Stepping on a trap slows you down for a couple of seconds and you get good bleeding. This type of trap is the most harmless, because its repeated action does not pass immediately, but after some time. Moreover, the damage is applied one-time and does not continue its effect. Such damage dealt can be repaired with flasks filled with health.

To find out how this type of traps work, you can look at the locations of the first stage, or more precisely, in the Prison Dungeon.

Saws are able to move along a given path, repeating their actions over and over again. Where the damage can be done over time, but it's much more effective than regular spikes. Where damage is not important in this case. Sometimes saws can be temporarily turned off by finding and turning off the lever. To find out how they work, then go to the map of the second stage in the Chamber of Sins 2.

Rotating blades have a complex system of movement and impact on the player who is on the floor. If the player comes into contact with this trap, they will receive devastating damage, from which it will be difficult to recover. Where the trajectory of their movement can constantly change. But everything can be temporarily disabled if you find the levers. They can be seen in the Crypt in the second stage.

Melting traps are empty squares that are gradually replenished with magma and this takes a certain amount of time. The magma kill takes 5 seconds to heal instantly, but you can get rid of it if you drink a vial of health and leave that trap. Such damage does not pass through monsters, because they resist fire. Such traps are located in the Crematorium, and this is the third stage.

Blade Guardians, they are quite large traps that are impossible to miss and deal significant damage, damage can be gradual. The closer you are to the center of this trap, the damage will increase. In this case, the trap changes its trajectory, which complicates the passage of the maze. It is they who are in the Catacombs in the third stage.

Flying darts, a trap that shoots only small projectiles, it can change its direction. Projectiles are fired after a given period of time. The damage dealt is not so great, but you can survive a few shots, while he will slow you down. Such traps will be found on walls and pillars, some of them are activated by pressing certain plates. To evaluate the shooting of traps, you can visit the Green Maze in the third stage.

Watchmen, those traps that cause harmful damage to you and the environment for a certain time, and such traps are found only at level 75.

Additional (secret) traps in the maze

Of course, there is another mass of traps that are less known to people. One of these traps are spinning blades that rotate vertically in doors.

Players are constantly sorted by the system, and this depends on the amount of time spent on passing the maze. To get sole leadership in the maze, one needs to go through the maze. Moreover, the labyrinth must be completed before the end of the day, until there are no changes. As a result, you will get twelve leaders in labyrinths at different difficulty levels.

• To play in the list of regular players, you must not go over the level 40 bar.
• To play on the list of violent players, you must not go over the level 60 bar.
• To play on the list of ruthless players, you need to be level 60 and above.

At midnight, the fate of all players who decide to take part is decided, where the fun begins, or, to be more precise, the distribution of prizes, awards and other interesting things. And it all depends on the complexity of the level, the time spent, and so on. Moreover, rewards are awarded to some players during the day, and this is done about 4 times.

Ruler's labyrinth (Lord's labyrinth) - a dungeon consisting of several locations, each of which is filled with deadly traps, monsters and secrets. For the complete passage of the labyrinth, the character gets the opportunity to select the Ascendancy subclass, as well as 2 Ascension talent points for leveling a separate branch of Ascension talents The main problem when passing this dungeon is that it must be completed without death, because after the death of the character it takes you to the city and you need to start the race from the very beginning.

In total, there are four difficulties of the Ruler's Labyrinth in Path of Exile:

• Labyrinth
• Cruel Labyrinth
• Merciless labyrinth
• Eternal labyrinth or Uber lab (Eternal labyrinth, Uber labyrinth, Uber lab)

In order to open access to each difficulty of the labyrinth, you must pass the Ascendancy trials, also called trials. Trials are zones with traps of a certain type that you need to completely go through and activate the item at the end. Trials for the first three difficulties are located in normal acts story game. Trials for the uber maze appear randomly on the maps, which is why opening all uber trials usually takes quite a long time, because you can ride the same trial or there will be no trials on your maps at all. We know effective methods for finding and passing Uber trials and will be able to open access to your Uber maze in a few hours!

To access the uber labyrinth, you will need to go through all the previous mazes, and you also need a special item - an offering to the Goddess (Offering to the Goddess), which drops out when passing the uber trial. An offering is needed for each new run in the Uber Labyrinth.

A labyrinth of any complexity is a generated dungeon with its own unique set of locations. During the passage of the labyrinth, the player will have to fight three times with Izaro, the keeper of the labyrinth. Isarius uses one of three types of weapons, possesses various types power-ups and a unique set of traps - all these features change every day, which only makes it difficult to pass. To effectively pass the labyrinth, the player must be familiar with all the tricks of Izar, because you cannot die in the labyrinth - you will have to start the whole race from the beginning.

Do not forget that the labyrinth is not only access to Ascension talent points, but also one of the very effective ways to farm in the game. After complete passage labyrinth and killing Izar, you open access to the last room of the labyrinth, in which there is a device with which you can enchant (enchant) and 10 chests with valuable loot. Chests can be opened using keys, which are obtained in various ways in the poe maze itself. In addition, Izar and labyrinth chests can drop unique items, which are obtained only from the labyrinth, which significantly increases their cost.

Enchantment can be cast on gloves, boots, or a helmet (only gloves in a normal labyrinth, gloves and boots in a cruel labyrinth). The strength of the enchantment on items depends on the complexity of the labyrinth passed (the best enchantments are in the path of exile uber labyrinth). Enchanted items receive special effects that greatly increase your character's strength. It can take quite a lot of runs and time to get the right enchantment for each item, especially considering that you need to go through the labyrinths very carefully so as not to die. You can order any number of uber lab walkthroughs from us to get the desired item enchantment.

How long does the service take to complete?

The passage of ordinary, cruel and ruthless trials takes about 20-30 minutes. Passage of Uber trials from 30 minutes to 2 hours. The passage of labyrinths takes from 15 to 30 minutes. Runs in the Uber maze to enchant items take an average of 10-15 minutes.

Can I personally take part in the passage of the labyrinth?

Yes, you can personally go through the labyrinth of any complexity with our experienced player, without transferring your account. But the cost of completing a ruthless and uber labyrinth is higher due to the increased risks.

If I transfer an account, can I somehow control the process of performing the service?

We provide a stream (online broadcast) of pumping, you can always follow the process of performing the service. In addition, our operators are always ready to answer any questions you may have.

The Labyrinth is a new zone added in the Ascendancy expansion (patch 2.2), it must be completed in order to gain access to subclasses (ascension classes), as well as to access enchantments.

For the first passage of the labyrinth on each of the difficulties, the difficulties give 2 points, which can be invested in the special passive abilities of subclasses.

How to get into the maze

To get into the main labyrinth, you must first go through 6 small ones, they are located in the following locations:

• Act 1: Prison Dungeon (The Lower Prison)
• Act 2: Chamber of Sins Level 2
• Act 2: The Crypt Level 1 (The Crypt Level 1)
• Act 3: The Crematorium
• Act 3: The Catacombs
• Act 3: The Hedge Maze There is no direct teleport from the city to this location, it can be accessed from The Imperial Gardens

The entrance to the main labyrinth is located in the city of the third act:

Mini-mazes must be completed once, after which access to the main labyrinth will be open forever (for the current difficulty).

Boss

In the main labyrinth, you will have 3 fights with the main boss Izaro. It has several different versions, with different kinds of helpers.

First phase. In the first phase, statues help him. They appear gradually. In one variation, you can kill, in another only temporarily deactivate. Kill/deactivate the statues, and only then deal damage to the boss. Otherwise, for each remaining active assistant, he will receive bonuses in the final battle.

Second phase. Now mini-bosses will help him. They also appear in sequence. Kill them first, and only then beat the main boss.

Third phase. If you didn't kill the helpers from the previous phases the boss will be significantly buffed. There will also be traps in the boss room. The best tactic having an advantage in level is to stand in one place safe from traps and beat the boss.

Even so, remember that in some versions, Izaro can teleport the player directly into traps.

After the third phase, you find yourself in a location where:

• Can cast an enchantment (once per playthrough)
• Take a subclass/additional 2 points (if passing for the first time)
• Open chests. To open them, keys are required, which can only be found in the labyrinth itself.

Also in the labyrinth itself there is a special zone where the "beast" is located. Killing him will make the boss easier. But, in my opinion, passing traps is more dangerous than a "slightly" enhanced boss, which is not a problem with pumping.

Note: if you have something to add write in the comments. Helpful Hints will be added to this guide.

Do not rush

Perhaps the main advice in passing traps is not to rush. The principle of the traps and how to pass them is not difficult to understand, for this you just need to stop for a few seconds and watch them.

The "don't rush" advice is especially important for all hardcore league players.

Maze navigation

At the entrance to each location of the labyrinth, there will be a special stand next to it, clicking on which will open the map of the labyrinth and your current location.

High level

A high level in the passage of the labyrinth will only help in the fight with the boss. Traps, according to my experiments, deal damage as a % of health, and also ignore armor. Therefore, neither a large amount of health nor armor will help you run through traps with your eyes closed.

Movement Skills

Some traps can be jumped over, some difficult places can be “flyed” in seconds using movement skills. Be sure to have at least one in your arsenal.

vials

Some especially dangerous traps, in addition to damage, impose bleeding on the character, so it is especially important to have bleeding removal on many, and preferably on all bottles. Also, it is very important to have the instant recovery property on most health regeneration flasks.

Due to the return to the city, you will have to go through the labyrinth first, so it is better to take more vials to restore health.

Trap Damage Reduction

The only thing (from what I was able to find out) that can reduce the damage of traps is Endurance charges.

Monsters

Don't kill the monsters in the labyrinth unless absolutely necessary - they will help restore the charges on the flasks when needed.

Also, monsters allow you to gain Endurance charges.

Health regeneration

As mentioned above, the amount of health does not increase your survivability for traps, but what does increase it is health regeneration. If it is possible to take additional passive skills for regeneration before passing the labyrinth take it.

Also significantly increases health regeneration:

• Summon Stone Golem
• Unique Belt

Straight to the target

The labyrinth has various branches. Passing them, I did not understand what is the special advantage of passing them (an additional key, in comparison with the probability of losing a character on traps does not appeal at all).

useful items

There are items that will help in the passage of the maze. I have identified two useful ones so far:

• Unique Amulet Bloodgrip Grants 100% increased amount of Vials healed and Bleeding while moving does not deal additional damage to you
• Unique Belt Immortal Flesh grants 66.6 - 75 health regen per second.

If you know other useful items write in the comments.

Try next day

Each new day, the maze is generated in a new way, and the version of Izaro also changes. If you can't get past the maze or defeat the boss try doing it the next day.

The Legacy Challenge League in the action/RPG Path of Exile will begin on the night of March 3-4, along with the installation of patch 2.6.0. And in order to get unique rewards, you will have to complete 40 trials: for 12 tests you will be given traces of the Legacy, for 24 - the effect of the Legacy weapon, and for 36 - the Legacy portal.
