Path of Exile provides its players with various buffs, such as Pantheon Powers, that they can use to triumph through battles. The Pantheon is a system that bestows divine ability upon players. One can acquire these powers after defeating the gods in Acts 6 through 10.

These powers were introduced with The Fall of Oriath expansion. This guide explains how one can acquire and upgrade them.

Path of Exile has 12 gods that offer players specific abilities once defeated. The game has four major gods and eight minor gods. While the four major gods can be defeated during Acts 6, 7, and 8, the minor gods can be defeated in side quests.

The Path of Exile Pantheon powers can also be upgraded. The powers of the major gods can be upgraded three times, offering players four buffs. The powers of minor gods can only be upgraded once, offering two buffs.
