Path of Exile 2 (PoE 2) Legacy of the Vaal Quest Bug: Is there any fix yet
Keep in mind that this issue is not new at all and players have been reporting about it since December 2024. After these reports, a patch did drop, which claimed to have squashed the bug. For most players, the patch seems to solve the issues. Still, some players are struggling to complete this quest. So, while we do not have an immediate fix, here are some workarounds that are worth a shot.
Quest Portal
If you’re stuck on the Speak to Doryani quest after finishing the campaign and entering maps, try heading to the encampment and going through the portal—you should find Doryani standing next to it. If the quest remains active, it likely means you’ve interacted with one of the major monuments on the Atlas for the pinnacle bosses. In that case, the quest will disappear once you locate the necessary keys to progress.
Retry the Quest
If the quest bug occurs, try restarting it by leaving the area and re-entering. For players who experience this issue in offline mode or private leagues with save states, reloading the game or loading a previous save might resolve the bug. This forces the game to reinitialize the quest and may allow progression.
Atlas points
The issue occurs because your Atlas is already filled, and you don’t need the Atlas points from Tier 1–15 maps. As a result, the quest does not properly trigger or appear in your log, preventing completion. Since the quest isn’t showing due to a full Atlas, you can bypass it by starting maps from an encampment instead of your hideout. While this allows you to continue mapping, the only drawback is that you won’t be able to initiate maps from your hideout until the issue is resolved.
Drown City
A potential fix for the bug is to teleport to Drowned City (Present), then walk back to the Ziggurat Encampment, go upstairs, and speak to Doryani, followed by the Hooded One. Try doing this and then check whether the issue persists.
Keep checking for updates
Always keep an eye out for game updates, as developers frequently release patches to fix bugs and improve performance and make sure your game is updated to the latest version. Sometimes, a simple update can resolve persistent problems without needing workarounds. Regularly checking for updates ensures you’re not missing out on important fixes and improvements.
That’s all the workarounds we have for now regarding the Legacy of the Vaal quest bug in Path of Exile 2. Hopefully, these issues will be ironed out as soon as possible with future updates.
