Path of Exile 2is a deep game, filled with systems, mechanics, skills, and content to explore. During Act 2, you will be able to Ascend your character, gaining a subclass that offers unique skills, further increasing your build capabilities.

Ascending your character involves completing the Trials of the Sekhemas, during which you may find a currency called Sacred Water. Below, we’ll take a look at everything you need to know about Sacred Water, including where to get it and what it’s used for.

Where To Get Sacred Water

Sacred Water is a currency exclusive to theTrial of the Sekhemasin Act 2, where you Ascend your character. While running through the Trial,normal enemies have a chance to drop small amounts of Sacred Water, which appear asglowing blue orbson the ground. They areautomatically picked upwhen you move near them.

The main way to get Sacred Water is to useSacred Water Fountains, which are special rooms that you can choose while plotting your Trial route. Sacred Water Fountains give a much larger bundle of Sacred Water, in the one to two hundred range. There are alsoGrand Sacred Water Fountainsthat reward even more.

How To Use Sacred Water

Sacred Water can only be used during the Trial of the Sekhemas;once you leave the Trial, all of your current Sacred Water will be lost. Luckily, there are multiple things to spend it on that provide lasting effects.

The main way to use Sacred Water is tospend it at the Merchantwho sometimes appears during the Trial. From the Merchant, you can buyBoonsthat will help you in further rooms,Relicsthat you can carry over to new runs, or you can choose to simplyrestore your Honour.

Sacred Water can also be used inShrine roomsto restore a small amount of Honour.

At the end of the Trial, you’re able to once againspend Sacred Water at the Merchant, or use theKeth Forgetoconvert all excess Sacred Water into Keys, which can then be used toopen the treasure chests in the same room. SinceSacred Water is lost upon leaving the Trial, this is really the only use for it once you’ve completed the Trial.
