Path of Exile 2's Hidden Golden Idols: A Guide to Finding and Selling Them
Path of Exile 2 features many quests, some less obvious than others. Act 3 introduces Golden Idols, unique quest items not automatically added to your quest log. Unlike typical quest items, these aren't turned in for progression; instead, they're valuable trade goods. There are five to find.
Locating the Golden Idols in PoE 2
After exploring the Vaal ruins beneath the Ziggurat Encampment in Act 3, a portal sends you to Utzaal (The Drowned City in the present), showcasing the Vaal civilization at its zenith. Focus your search within Utzaal and the connected area, Aggorat.
Three idols are hidden within Utzaal, and two more reside in Aggorat. They're typically found on the ground or pedestals in side rooms, not dropped by enemies.
- Utzaal Golden Idols:
Glorious Idol
Golden Idol
Grand Idol
- Aggorat Golden Idols:
Exceptional Idol
Elegant Idol
Cashing In Your Golden Idols
Once collected, return to the Ziggurat Encampment and sell them to Oswald, located in the north of the area. He's the only vendor who accepts these items.
Selling prices are as follows:
- Golden Idol: 500 Gold
- Grand Idol: 1000 Gold
- Glorious Idol: 1500 Gold
- Elegant Idol: 1000 Gold
- Exceptional Idol: 1500 Gold
Finding all five yields a total of 6000 gold. Since they only serve as valuable sellable items, it's best to return to the encampment after each find to sell them and free up inventory space.
