Expedition is an end-game system in Path of Exile 2 where players use explosives to find Verisium artifacts. Read on to learn more about Expedition and the rewards you get for completing them.

What is an Expedition

Help Kalguurans Collect Artifacts and Fight Enemies

As you clear corruption in the end-game, you can run into Kalguuran settlers for an Expedition. In these Expeditions, you will help the Kalguurans dig up Verisium artifacts from certain areas with the use of explosives.

These areas will be marked and you can choose how to place the explosives in order to maximize the items you find. Do note that once you start using the explosives, enemies will start appearing so be prepared to fight!

Defeat Olroth for Unique Rewards and Points

Upon taking on an Expedition with a Logbook, there's a possibility you can encounter Olroth, the ancient undead commander of the Knights of the Sun.

Olroth acts as a boss for this endgame system and defeating him earns you unique rewards as well as points for the Atlas Tree.

Expedition Rewards

Exchange Artifacts for Items and Runic Magic

Upon collecting artifacts from an Expedition, you can head to either Dannig, Rog, Tujen, or Gwennen in order to exchange the artifacts you found for items or runic magic.

Earn Points for Atlas Tree

When you take on an Expedition with a Logbook, there's a chance you can encounter Olroth. Defeating him rewards you with unique items and points you can use for the Expedition section of your Atlas Tree.
