In Path of Exile (PoE), enhancing your character’s power often involves upgrading your Pantheon. One crucial part of this process is capturing specific bosses to upgrade the powers of major and minor gods. This guide focuses on capturing Puruna, the Challenger, and other related bosses to maximize your Pantheon benefits.
Soul of the Brine King
The Brine King’s power can be upgraded to provide significant defensive benefits. Here’s a breakdown of the base ability and its upgrades:
PoE Soul of the Brine King

Add a Divine Vessel into the map device.
Run the map and kill the Puruna, the Challenger boss (you can have other players help kill the boss, but you must be present in the map for the capturing to work).
Check your map device, you should have acquired the Captured Soul of a god (item that looks like a blue bottle).
Consume the Captured Soul to upgrade a God Power.
View your Pantheon and roll over the God you are trying to upgrade; the upgraded God Power should now be available.
There must be space in the map device for the Captured Soul or it will be deleted.
Important Tips
Map Device Space: Ensure there is enough space in your map device for the Captured Soul, or it will be deleted.
Pantheon Sharing: Upgrades to the Pantheon are shared between all characters in the same league but are disabled until the character has completed “An End to Hunger” (completing the Act campaign).
