Path of Exile 2 Hostile Takeover walkthrough

The Hostile Takeover quest is one of the main additions in Path of Exile 2 that you can unlock after gaining access to Act 4, and this guide will help you complete all the steps.

If you're a new player, expect to spend significant time clearing the first three acts. Once you reach Act 4, speak with Ange in Kingsmarch. This unlocks the Hostile Takeover quest for you. The entire quest can be divided into four key parts, which are straightforward.

How to complete Hostile Takeover in Path of Exile 2?

As you reach Kingsmarch in Path of Exile 2, locate Ange and speak with her to begin the quest automatically.

Defeat Diamora, Song of Death

Your first task is to travel to Whakapanu Island and search for the entrance to Singing Caverns. The caverns are located on the opposite side of the island. Here, you'll find Diamora, Song of Death. Diamora isn't the hardest of enemies you'll encounter, but you'll have to dodge some of her attacks. This will create chances for you to land your combos (doesn't matter what build you're going for) and complete this part of the quest.

Return to Ange

Once Diamora is taken care of, return to Kingsmarch and speak to Ange. She will then give you the next part of your quest.

Clear enemies in Shoreline Hideout

This part of the task is relatively simple once you have traveled to Shoreline Hideout. The enemies aren't very lethal, but they hunt you in squads. Focus on them separately, keep your distance (if you have melee builds), and dispatch them one at a time.

Go to Hideout

Once Shoreline Hideout is cleared, return to Ange using your Hideout option. Once the previous step is done, speaking with Ange concludes the quest, and she becomes a new Merchant NPC.

Path of Exile 2 Hostile Takeover rewards

There are two major rewards of this quest. You unlock the Shoreline Hideout and get to add Ange as a Merchant NPC, which unlocks Auto-trading.
