As you progress through the campaign inPath of Exile 2, you will find several optional objectives that grant a number of permanent bonuses to your character. These include flat HP, Elemental Resistances, Spirit, Attributes, Mana Regen., Passive Skill Points, etc. We highly recommend getting them, since they can easily fill in the gaps in your build without much effort.

Most of these objectives are fairly simple, such as killing an optional boss, fetching an item for an NPC, or defeating some monsters. In this guide, we have provided a comprehensive list of every permanent buff you can get during Path of Exile 2’s campaign.
