If you are looking to level up fast in Path of Exile 2 to experience the end game as soon as possible or want to learn more about the level cap and level requirement for the end game, I’ve got you covered with this guide.

Path of Exile 2 is a massive game with a tempting end game and build crafting option that many players want to explore as soon as possible.

However, leveling up in the game is no easy task!

Moreover, without the proper level, accessing the Atlas (the main end-game activity with many sub-activities) and its various end-game activities is impossible.

So, keep reading as I share details on all you need to know about leveling in Path of Exile 2.

What is the level cap in Path of Exile 2?

Path of Exile 2 main campaign missions

The level cap in Path of Exile 2 is character level 100.

Once you reach level 100, you can no longer level up your character.

However, you will be able to min-max your build and experience the massive end-game to improve your damage numbers, collect legendary loot, unlock new passives, and so on.

The recommended level for the end game in Path of Exile 2 is character level 65.

Other than that, during the early access, you must complete the first three Acts on Cruel Difficulty to start the end game.

Once you do that, you can head to Vaal Ziggurat.

After arriving there, speak to the NPC named Doryani to unlock Atlas, which is the infinite end-game in Path of Exile 2.

How to quickly level up in Path of Exile 2

The best way to level up your character fast in Path of Exile 2 is by simply completing the main campaign.

While clearing one of the two ascendancy trials available in early access, the Trial of the Sekhemas and the Trial of Chaos.

You can do the side quests and the optional bosses while you are doing the main quests to level up slightly faster.

But in the end, just completing the campaign will let you reach level 65.

That said, unlike games like Diablo 4, there will be no XP boosts or such things.

Even in early access, if you are just focusing on the three Acts and then complete them again in Cruel difficulty, you will be ready for the end game, as confirmed by developer Grinding Gear Games.

I am assuming that, like in Diablo 4, there would be some way to quickly reach the maximum level using multiplayer. But I cannot confirm that at the moment.

As for reaching level 100, unlocking the right nodes in the Atlas and going through the below end-game activities will be more than enough to reach max level fast:

  • Breach
  • Delirium
  • Expedition
  • Ritual

That aside, I will update this guide once Path of Exile 2 comes out in case there are better options than just clearing the main campaign to level up fast.

That is everything you need to know about how to level up fast in Path of Exile 2. If the article helped, please consider buying me a Coffee to help me create more content. You can also share the article with your friends or leave a comment.
