Activate Rune Monoliths to Summon a Boss

Path of Exile 2 - Phaaryl Megaliths
The Phaaryl Megaliths Map starts deep in the wild Ezomyte Forests, where players will encounter mysterious rune-carved stones scattered throughout the area.

Interacting with these stones surges them with energy — and once all are activated, the power converges at a grand henge, where players must go to initiate the encounter.

Fight Bosses Multiple Times

Upon reaching the grand henge, players can initiate an encounter — the sky darkens, storms rage, and a powerful boss emerges! Defeating this boss grants rewards, but the challenge doesn't stop there.

Players can summon wave after wave of bosses, with a total of ten escalating battles. Each wave becomes tougher, offering greater rewards for those who endure.
