Mechanics and Usage

All vials are used at the Altar of Sacrifice within the Apex of Ascension room in the Temple of Atzoatl. The item being upgraded must be placed alongside the corresponding vial, and once the sacrifice is complete, the unique item will be transformed into its more powerful version.

Drop Source: Vials can only be obtained by defeating the Vaal Omnitect, the final boss of the Temple of Atzoatl. Multiple vials can drop at once, depending on the rooms constructed within the temple.
Influence of Rooms: The chance of obtaining specific vials can be increased by constructing certain rooms within the Temple of Atzoatl. Each room increases the drop chance for a specific vial, making it possible to focus on farming the vials needed for desired upgrades.
Upgrade Consistency: The Altar of Sacrifice will always upgrade to the most current version of the item, even if the original unique was a legacy version. The item level remains the same, but quality, enchantments, and modifier rolls do not carry over.

Conclusion

Vials in Path of Exile offer players a powerful way to enhance specific unique items, turning them into more potent tools for their characters. By carefully selecting and farming the right vials, players can significantly boost the power of their builds, unlocking new synergies and abilities. Whether you’re seeking to improve a defensive shield, enhance your movement speed, or upgrade a powerful weapon, vials provide a unique and rewarding progression path in the game.
