The Horn of Vastiri in Path of Exile 2 is a special item needed to get through the sandstorm as part of the Act XNUMX quest Trail of Corruption. While the quest isn't particularly difficult, many may be misled by its description. If you follow the quest log and return to the sandstorm, nothing will happen and the quest won't complete.
In this guide we will tell you how to use the Horn of Vastiri in PoE 2, what tasks you need to complete for this and what to do if you can’t complete the quest.
How to get the Horn of Vastiri in PoE 2
To get the quest item you need, complete three additional story missions. They will appear in your journal immediately after you speak to Zarka and tell her about the sandstorm blocking your path. Recreate the Horn of Vastiri by visiting and exploring three different desert locations as part of the quests "City of Seven Waters", "The Ivory Theft" и "Crown of Stone".
Once you've defeated the three story bosses and collected the key crafting items, return to Zarka and speak with her to receive the Horn of the Vastiri.
How to Use and Blow the Vastiri Horn in Path of Exile 2
The quest description says "Open the desert map and return to the sandstorm at Halani Gate." If you do this, you'll just go through the Asala location again, fight the Eternal King, and come out to the sandstorm wall again. In this case, the quest won't progress.
An inaccuracy in the description of the task can be confusing, and an unsuspecting player will wander around the desert locations for a long time in search of the right solution. The correct algorithm of actions in this quest is much simpler and does not imply repeated clearing of the Halani Gate location.
Direct the caravan through the map
After receiving the Horn of Vastiri from Zarka, approach the desert map at the front of the carriage and use it. Using the quest marker, direct the caravan to the waypoint near the Halani Gate.
Blow the Horn of Vastiri
Once the caravan stops near a sandstorm, do not rush to get out of it or teleport somewhere. To complete the task, you need to go to the bow of the carriage and find the quest indicator and the interaction point "Blow the Horn" there. Click on it, after which the character will independently perform the necessary action.
Once the sandstorm has passed, the path to Deshar will be open. Talk to Asala and direct the caravan further, following the quest markers on the desert map.
What to do if the Horn of Vastiri is missing?
The game is still in early access and contains many bugs. This quest is no exception. Many people encounter various bugs during the game. One of them is the impossibility of completing the task after completing all the necessary actions. The horn simply disappears from the inventory, and the sandstorm remains in place, and the plot does not advance further.
If you encounter such a bug, try exiting the game, waiting 15 minutes and logging in again. This action should reset all instances, thereby updating the locations. You can also try to take a break from the storyline for a while, farm or do uncompleted side quests. If after a long time the problem with the quest is not solved, all that remains is to wait for a fix from the developers.
We hope this guide helped you figure out how to blow the Horn of Vastiri and remove the sandstorm barrier in Path of Exile 2.
