Tracking down Renly’s tools in Path of Exile 2 might be giving you some trouble. While the game is usually pretty good at making it easy to find things—despite areas being randomized every time you visit—this item in-particular is tough to locate. During act one, you’ll be tasked with finding Renly’s equipment in the Finding the Forge quest.
The erstwhile blacksmith asks that you take a look for his stuff while making your way through Ogham Village on your path to confront the count at his spooky manor. Giving Renly his tools unlocks a workbench that lets you salvage certain pieces of gear, so it’s well worth the trip.
