Path of Exile – Act 7: Bridge Encampment

Route and starting point

Broken Bridge → Crossroads/Fellshrine/Crypt → Chamber of Sins → Maligaro’s Sanctum → Den → Ashen Fields → Northern Forest/Dread Thicket → Causeway → Vaal City → Temple of Decay.

The area sequence describes connections rather than fixed screen directions: instances are procedurally generated. Activate waypoints and keep quest items until handed in.

Main and side quests

1. The Silver Locket

   Recover Weylam’s Silver Locket in the Broken Bridge. The reward is a utility flask; choose for your build, such as Granite for armour or Quartz for movement through enemies.

2. Essence of the Artist

   Retrieve Maligaro’s Map from the Crypt, open it with the device in the Chamber of Sins and defeat Maligaro in his Sanctum. Report the result to Sin.

3. Web of Secrets

   Retrieve the Black Venom in Maligaro’s Sanctum and return it to Silk. Use the resulting Obsidian Key to open the Chamber of Sins route to the Den.

4. The Master of a Million Faces

   Defeat possessed Greust/Ralakesh in the Ashen Fields. Collect the passive point in town, then continue through the Northern Forest.

5. In Memory of Greust

   Optionally speak to Helena after Greust’s death, take his necklace and place it at the Azmeri shrine in the Northern Forest. Amulet reward; no passive point.

6. Lighting the Way

   Collect all seven Fireflies in the Dread Thicket. Yeena needs them in the Vaal City to open the Temple of Decay entrance.

7. Queen of Despair

   Defeat Gruthkul in the Dread Thicket. Combine this with collecting Fireflies and claim the extra passive point from Eramir.

8. Kishara's Star

   Recover Kishara’s relic in the Causeway and return it to Weylam in the Bridge Encampment. One passive point and two refund points; the relic lies along the Vaal City route.

9. The Mother of Spiders

   Follow Silk through the Temple of Decay and defeat Arakaali in her arena. This opens the route to Sarn and Act 8.

Boss strategy and power check

Arakaali: avoid green projectile paths and ground effects, and do not get trapped at the arena edge. Leave room for Gruthkul’s large attacks. The Dread Thicket side objective provides lasting strength and is valuable for beginners.

Before the next act

Three skill books collected; seven Fireflies used; Crypt/Chamber of Sins trials completed; consider the second Labyrinth.
