Accursed Pact -- Path of Exile
A Sanctum run contains 4 floors, each containing 8 rooms. The 8th room of each floor always contains a Boss. Players can choose to engage in a room every time they encounter the portal to the Sanctum in an area or map, or defer up to 8 rooms (1 floor) to be run consecutively at a later time. Crashing during a Sanctum room will reset progress for that room and will resume the same area on your next map. Aureus and rewards are only locked in upon successful completion of a room. Each Sanctum run is independent between characters on the same account.

The Accursed Pact in The Forbidden Sanctum is a room cloaked in shadows, whispering promises of immense power at a chilling cost. Let's tread carefully and delve into its mysteries, with safety and ethical considerations guiding our exploration:
Temptation's Embrace:
The Accursed Pact offers a Pact, a potent buff linked to a specific affliction. These Pacts can grant devastating offensive capabilities, enhanced defenses, or even unique movement options. The allure of such power is undeniable, but the price…
A Soul's Ransom:
The affliction tied to the Pact is its insidious cost. It could be a constant drain on life, a chilling vulnerability to specific elements, or even a twisted transformation warping your own form. Accepting the Pact binds you to its affliction, a constant reminder of the darkness you wield.
Ethical Echoes:
Before succumbing to the Accursed Pact's whispers, ponder the ethical implications. Does the end justify the means? Can unleashing such power, even against nefarious forces, come without staining your soul? The choice ultimately rests with you, Exile.
Strategic Steps:
If you choose to embrace the Pact, tread carefully. Consider the following:
- Understanding the Pact: Analyze the specific buff and affliction presented. Does the power synergize with your build and combat style? Can you handle the affliction's burden?
- Mitigation Measures: Seek ways to alleviate the affliction's impact. Certain items, skills, or even subsequent room effects might offer valuable countermeasures.
- Temporary Embrace: Remember, you can deactivate the Pact at any point in the Sanctum. Use its power strategically for key encounters, then unburden yourself when its utility diminishes.
Remember, Exile: The Accursed Pact is a crucible for your resolve. Weigh power against your values, and walk a path neither reckless nor devoid of ambition. Let your choices echo through the Sanctum, a testament to your strength and unwavering principles.
May your journey within The Forbidden Sanctum be both daring and mindful, Exile. Feel free to ask further questions about specific Pacts, strategic considerations, or navigating the ethical considerations inherent to the Accursed Pact. I am here to support your informed exploration, not dictate your choices.
