Path of Exile 2 is all about powerful skills and equipment. No wonder players are regularly coming up with new overpowered combinations and builds. Among relatively recent discoveries, we can name Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps. This long name is often shortened by players to HoWA. These gloves are very useful for many builds. We will tell you how to get them.

Where to find HoWA in PoE 2

First of all, HoWA is one of the most powerful items. So, you should not be surprised that it is available in the Endgame. The gloves can drop from one of the pinnacle bosses called Xesht, We That Are One. So, how to reach this opponent?

First of all, you have to take part in the Breach event on the Atlas map. You must kill opponents as fast as possible for the breach to remain open. Your task is to interact with Clasped Hands which should appear in various places. There is a chance to get Breach Splinters from them (t11+ maps). If you manage to collect 300 of them, they will merge and create Breachstone.

With the stone, you should go to The Realmgate. You can use the item to open the passage to home of Xesht, We That Are One. Now, you have to defeat the opponent to get the rewards. If you are fortunate enough, HoWA gloves will be among them. Good luck.

Of course, Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps is not the only item which can be useful on your way to the greatness. Quite recently we have covered how to get another powerful unique, An Audience with the King. We have PoE 2 guide too, if you have more questions.
