Path of Exile 2

Path of Exile 2

Cannot obtain the final rune of power
I already have two of the runes of power, however I cannot get the 3rd and final one. I come across the obelisks but they do not yield any. Also the rust king boss doesn't spawn either.
Instead I'm always getting an army of ezomytes showing up.
Must be a bug or glitch here. Right now it's a major one because I cannot complete this mission without it and any further progress in the game is blocked.
Also I did try to reset the map by pressing Cntrl / Right click as some have suggested.
I did this a few times to no avail. Doesn't work for me.

It seems a bugged quest happens from time to time. If I were you, my last hope would be removing all quest items and restarting the game, and then try the zone again.

Good luck.

Did this work for you?
Not me personally, but one in my play group was able to complete a quest with that kind of problem by restarting it completely. Another time it was just having to get in closer proximity to the objective location (closer than melee swing range) while the specific location was unclear. That was problematic in multiplayer.

While I've seen and read of this kind of bug a few times in different varieties, none have actually caused a full end of a campaign, solved in some form by simply reattempting the quest to differing degrees of effort required despite reasonably achieving it the first time.

Not sure if anyone actually *can't* satisfy a quest through thoroughly redoing them.

Did as you suggested and it worked. I dropped the runes I had on the ground near the final obelisk. Then I went to the obelisk and was able to summon the Rust King.
I was able to defeat him. Contrary to what others have said you are not confined to an enclosed space.
You are actually able to get away by moving far enough away. I did so and actually opened a portal back to Clearfell so I can fill up on my mana/life flasks because they were both low.
I came back and tracked him down.
Also I found out he cannot cross the wooden bridges in the area and I used one of them as a safe point of attack to shoot at him.
I would roll backwards off the bridge to avoid his attacks when he fired at me.
Then I would gradually wear him down and kill him while I was on the bridge.
