History of Queen's Bounty

Overview

A Queen's Bounty is a bounty received when you present an Offering to the Oracle at the Oracle Engine in the Dreaming City. Queen's Bounties do not expire. They require playing while Ascended, a buff gained by consuming a Tincture of Queensfoil.

Acquisition

Present the Offering to the Oracle on the balcony beside Sedia the Techeun in the Spine of Keres, south of the Divalian Mists. Presenting it grants a random Queen's Bounty and a Dreaming City Legendary gear drop. In the third week of the curse cycle, presenting it opens a portal to the Queen's Court instead, with the normal rewards in a chest beside the throne.

Rewards

Completing a Queen's Bounty grants a Transcendent Blessing mod, which removes the negative effect of Riven's Curse. The Transcendent Blessing is one-time use. Dismantling the armor piece returns it. Queen's Bounty listings on the D2 Wiki also include Purification Ritual variants such as The Corrupted, Abyssal Champions, Plague of the Well, Vorgeth and The Shattered Throne.

The main sources date from 2021 and earlier, so the details may have changed since then. Season 14 changes already prevented Transcendent Blessings from being equipped on Season of the Chosen or newer Dreaming City armor.
