What is Labyrinth in Path of Exile?
The Labyrinth is a randomly generated dungeon filled with traps, puzzles and monsters, culminating in a challenge against Izaro. Completing the Labyrinth for the first time unlocks a character’s Ascendancy class and points for the powerful Ascendancy skill tree. It also offers equipment enchantments, several unique items, and competitive leaderboards.

A crafting option obtained from a Vivid Abberarach Bulb allows you to enrich an Offering to the Goddess into one of three variants. All variants have a zone level of 83 and Izaro and labyrinth traps are significantly stronger.
