In Path of Exile (PoE), "Piety’s Pets" is one of the pivotal quests in Act 3, marking a significant moment in your journey through Wraeclast. The quest tasks you with confronting Piety, a key antagonist whose cruel experiments have left a trail of suffering in their wake. Your mission is to find her laboratory in the Lunaris Temple, put an end to her atrocities, and earn a valuable reward.
Objective: Locate Piety’s laboratory in the Lunaris Temple, defeat her, and put an end to her experiments.
Reward: 1 Passive Skill Point, awarded by Grigor upon completion.
"Piety’s Pets" is automatically assigned as you progress through Act 3, following your interactions with Grigor in the Sarn Encampment. Grigor, who has suffered firsthand from Piety’s experiments, implores you to seek her out and end her reign of terror. Piety has been using the Lunaris Temple as her laboratory, where she conducts horrific experiments on exiles and other unfortunate souls.
Your journey begins by locating the Lunaris Temple. The temple is a large, multi-level area teeming with dangerous enemies and twisted creations born from Piety’s experiments. The Lunaris Temple is divided into two levels:
Lunaris Temple Level 1: This level is a maze of rooms and corridors filled with corrupted creatures. Make your way through this area, fighting off enemies until you find the entrance to the next level.
Lunaris Temple Level 2: As you ascend to the second level, you’ll encounter even tougher foes. Here, the temple becomes even more treacherous, with powerful monsters guarding the path to Piety’s laboratory.
At the end of Lunaris Temple Level 2, you’ll find Piety’s laboratory. Prepare yourself, as this encounter is one of the most challenging in Act 3.
Once you reach Piety’s laboratory, you’ll come face-to-face with the Mistress of Corruption herself. Piety is a formidable foe, wielding powerful spells and summoning monstrous minions to aid her in battle. Her primary attacks include:
Lightning Beam: Piety channels a devastating beam of lightning that can quickly deplete your health. It’s crucial to dodge this attack by moving out of its path.
Firestorm: She calls down a storm of fiery meteors that can deal significant area damage. Keep moving to avoid being caught in this attack.
Ice Barrage: Piety also uses an ice-based attack that can slow you down, making it harder to evade her other spells.
To defeat Piety, you’ll need to manage her summons, avoid her spells, and deal consistent damage. This fight requires a combination of quick reflexes and effective use of your character’s abilities.
After defeating Piety, the quest updates, instructing you to return to Grigor in the Sarn Encampment. Grigor is both relieved and grateful for your victory, as it not only avenges his own suffering but also brings a semblance of justice to the many others Piety tormented.
As a token of appreciation, Grigor rewards you with a Passive Skill Point. This point allows you to further customize your character’s abilities, providing a valuable boost as you prepare for the challenges ahead.
"Piety’s Pets" is a crucial quest in Path of Exile, offering both narrative depth and significant rewards. The confrontation with Piety is a key turning point in Act 3, setting the stage for the final battles in this act. Completing this quest not only advances the story but also strengthens your character, making it an essential part of your journey through Wraeclast.
By bringing Piety’s reign of cruelty to an end, you fulfill Grigor’s request and earn a well-deserved reward that will aid you in the battles to come. Whether you’re driven by a sense of justice or the desire for power, "Piety’s Pets" is a quest that should not be overlooked as you carve your path through Path of Exile.
