Although the core gameplay of Path of Exile 2 is very similar to that of Diablo 4, the difficulty of the two games is very different. Path of Exile 2 is much more difficult than Diablo 4, which is particularly evident in the boss battle.
Almost every boss in Path of Exile 2 can be called a challenge. If you play the game normally and don’t level up madly to crush the boss, then the difficulty of some bosses will make you feel you are playing Soul series.
The following content is a list of the 6 most tough bosses according to the normal progress of the player’s game. Because some bosses are only the most difficult when you first see them.
As the final boss encountered by the player in Act 1, Count Geonor can be called a real challenge. If the player rashly challenges him when the equipment level is not high, you will fall into an extremely long boss battle. In the first stage, Geonor is in human form. He will use a big sword to attack the player. When his health is reduced to a certain level, he will enter the second stage.
Count Geonor in wolf form is much more difficult to deal with than in human form. And it is very good at freezing attributes. Players will continue to receive freezing and slowing effects on the battlefield. If the player is not prepared to resist freezing, the whole boss’ battle will be very torturous.
To deal with Geonor, you not only need equipment that resists freezing but also need to listen to its voice. It has many dangerous moves that will have voice prompts before they are released.
When the player follows the footsteps of Count Geonor’s wife to the desert, after a series of trials, the player will eventually face the final boss of Act 2, Jamanra, The Abomination.
Jamanra is a boss who is very good at fire and lightning. Its own melee attack is not fatal. The real difficulty of this boss battle comes from the changes in the battlefield. Jamanra will summon a sandstorm in the first stage, and the player needs to hide behind Jamanra as soon as possible. Jamanra will summon many tornadoes in the second stage, which further compresses the player’s movement space.
As the health value decreases, Jamanra’s spell range will become larger and larger. You can lead him to a safe place before attacking him. Perhaps because of the desert environment, Jamanra is more afraid of cold, which is its only weakness. After defeating it, you may get Runes and POE 2 Exalted Orb.
The player will fight Viper Napuatzi in Utzaal. She is the boss that the player must fight in Act 3. At the beginning of the battle, Viper Napuatzi’s men will gather together to form a small boss room. Viper Napuatzi will apply poison to you at the beginning of the battle, and all your supplies will be quickly consumed.
And as time goes by, her soldiers will shrink the battle field little by little, leaving you no room to hide. You must get rid of Viper Napuatzi as soon as possible, but Viper Napuatzi is resistant to all three elements. It is best to use physical or chaos damage against Viper Napuatzi. In addition, it is best to prepare enough anti-poison items before this battle.
After you deal with Viper Napuatzi, you will obtain some random POE 2 items, such as uncut support gems and uncut skill gems. However, you will not have much time to pick and choose, because her troops will soon attack you.
Doryani is the gatekeeper of Act 3. Players will encounter this powerful boss in The Testing Pit. He is imprisoned in this place along with his great creations. He has two phases. In the first phase, players need to face Doryani directly. He will float around the battlefield and release lightning, laser, and fire attacks on you. At the same time, he will release red crystals around the battlefield, which will explode after a short delay.
In the second phase, Doryani will assemble a mechanical scorpion, which will not only cause lightning and fire damage but also cold damage. The most difficult thing in the second stage is its laser cannon, which will quickly sweep across the field. At the same time, its other attacks are also very threatening.
You need to prepare some equipment that resists lightning and fire for this battle. After you defeat it, it will drop some valuable currency and will definitely drop at least one rare item.
Xesht, We That Are One is the final boss of Breaches activity. Players need to collect 300 Breach Splinters to qualify to challenge Xesht, We That Are One.
On the way to Xesht, We That Are One, players must first face a lot of monsters. If players cannot deal with these enemies, you can’t even see Xesht. Players can use AOE skills to clear these monsters quickly. They are not weak, and some are even rare monsters. Players can use them to farm some currency.
When you break through the monsters and reach the end, you can really start to face Xesht, We That Are One.
It is resistant to all three elements, so you’re better off using Chaos and Physical damage to against it.
The Arbiter of Ash is the most powerful boss in the endgame, no doubt about that. Because the developers even made adjustments specifically for it. Players will not fail immediately when they die in the battle with The Arbiter of Ash, but will have several more chances to challenge him. If you exit the boss’ room directly, these chances will not be retained.
The Arbiter of Ash is a boss with powerful attacks and very agile movements. It is good at using fire. Many of its attacks can cover your entire screen. There is very little room for players to dodge. Even if the player stacks the fire resistance to the highest level, some of The Arbiter of Ash’s attacks can still kill the player directly.
There are not many good ways to defeat The Arbiter of Ash. Basically, you can only remember its moves and counter them. After defeating The Arbiter of Ash, you can get a lot of currency and some valuable unique items.

The above is a simple ranking of the first bosses in Path of Exile 2. Players often fail many times when facing them, which is very normal. What you need to do is to adjust your build according to the boss’s weaknesses, and then find out how to move in the battle through repeated failures, make progress little by little, and finally defeat them. Challenging hard bosses will give players enough sense of accomplishment.
