Path of Exile Beginner's Guide to Orbs (2025)

Scroll of Wisdom is the most common currency item. It's used to identify items. Unidentified items cannot be equipped or tampered with in any way. It will be neededthroughout the entire game by every player.

Identifying looted items. There are, however, items you may not want to identify before selling. Some vendor recipes require items to be unidentified.Watcher's Eye Jewels from The Elder are worth mentioning here too. After such an item is identified, it becomes clear if it's worth a fortune or nothing. Some people like to test their luck by buying them as they drop and checking for themselves their worth.

The most efficient way to obtain them in bulk is to sellOrbs of Transmutation orArmourer's Scrapsto any vendor.

They are worth around 4 times more than Scrolls of Wisdom. You should always have some of them at hand no matter the stage of the game. That is unless you're using a Portal Skill Gem, but that's rarely seen.

Keeping up to a stack of them in your inventory is a common practice, it teleports you back to town or hideout.

Purchase some fromNessa in Act 1 by spending Scrolls of Wisdom.

This orb is used to improve the Quality of an armor piece, meaning it will gain slightly more Armour Evasion, or Energy Shield - depending on its base type. At the very early stages of the game, they're too scarce to use on all of your items, but later on, they're abundant.

Use them only on the items you're actually wearing. If, during leveling phase, you've found an item with high base stats and just the right sockets, but no good modifiers whatsoever, we suggest Scouring all the mods from it, then applying four Armourer’s Scraps, and only then trying to craft something on it with Essences or Orbs of Alchemy. Normal (white) items' Quality is upgraded by 5% with each use, while Rare items require five times as many of these orbs for the same effect. The Quality goes up to 20%.

It's used on a Crafting Bench to craft low-level extra Attribute Crafts.

Upgrading decent gear you find, that you want to sell for a better price. It will give you the edge in the market as some customers filter out offers with too low base stats. Additionally, items with higher Quality have a higher Chance of a better outcome when usingOrbs of Fusing.

If you've found a gear piece at 20% Quality already, you can trade it for one Armourer’s Scrap at any vendor. You can also buy it fromvendors by trading oneBlacksmith's Whetstone.

This orb is used to improve the Quality of a weapon. It shares many parallels withArmourer’s Scrap, but isslightly less common, as you have more armor pieces than weapons to upgrade. The weapon's Quality is quite important, but for Spell-casters it's actually of no use, only Attack builds benefit from the base weapon's damage.

Use it on the Weapons you're wielding to increase their base damage. You can be smartand apply them to normal items first - we've described the process in theArmourer’s Scrap section.

Store them untilyou are able to loot low-level maps. It's most efficient to upgrade Normal rarity hammers (Stone Hammer, Rock Breaker, Gavel) with 4 Blacksmith's Whetstones, and vendor it with a random map (only normal low-level ones, you do not plan on running). You will be getting Cartographer's Chisel for every Hammer traded that way.

You can use them in a vendor recipe. It is possible todeterministically craft a magic weapon withIncreased Physical Damage orIncreased Spell Damage. Sell aWeapon, oneBlacksmith's Whetstone, and one Magic, Rare, or UniqueRustic Sash Belt for a weapon with increased Physical Damage. It preserves Sockets and Crucible Passives. This technique is used for many Swords or Bow builds that rely on Physical Damage, or ones that just don't have good Unique Items to level up with. Swap Runic Sash for Chain Belt and you'llget a weapon with increased Spell Damage - it's great for Spell-casters.

Upgrading decent gear you find, that you want to sell for a better price. It will give you the edge in the market as some customers filter out offers with too low base stats.Additionally, items with higher Quality have a higher Chance of a better outcome when usingOrbs of Fusing.

This Orb adds a new random modifier (Affix) to a Magic (blue) item. Magic items are limited only to two modifiers, while Rare (yellow) items can have up to six of them, so it's not very useful at crafting actually good items.

Use them to craft affixes on Magic Flasks. Flasks are limited only to two affixes - one from the Prefixes' pool and the other from Suffixes'. It's a great introduction to crafting, just spot the two modifiers you want, and if you roll only one, apply this Orb and hope that the second is good as well. It's also used when Crafting ClusterJewels, especially Medium and Small ones for similar reasons.

One of the most useful tools for upgrading gear via vendor recipes. It increasesthe tier of a specific affixby one, resulting in a Magic item. You can create a pair of Boots with up to 30% increased Movement Speed by trading Boots,Quicksilver Flask, and this Orb at any vendor. You can also make a magic weapon with a very high tier of "Added Damage" mods by using other Flasks.

It's used on a Crafting Bench to craft low-level Crafts

Trade an identified Rare item with six affixes for one such orb at any vendor. You can also trade Normal, Magic, and Rare items of the same base type at any vendor for oneOrb of Augmentation (it's two if they're unidentified).

Used to improve Normal items to Magic items. Has multiple uses, but is rather irrelevant on low levels. We suggest storing them until later on when you cancraft good magic Flasks.

It's used mostly on Flasks and Jewels. It can add one or two Affixes, but you need to have a Normal Flask first. Be sure to have a good foundation for the item you want to craft. The highest-tier Affixes can only be present on items with a high enough Item Level. For example,"(56–60)% increased Armour during Effect", the highest tier of an Affix for increased Armour, requires a Flask at at least 84th Level. It's not recommended to use them on items that can be Rare, or on items you aim for more than one or two very specific mods.

Vendor Recipes (rarely) and Bench-Crafting.

You will gain a lot of them just by selling any unidentified items to a vendor, which usually ensures a steady stream of these. You can buy them at a vendor for Portal Scrolls, but it's not very efficient.

Changes all the Affixes on a Magic item. Vis-à-vis of the Chaos Orbs but for lower-grade gear or Flasks.These are the most valuable Orbs up to this point in the list.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players. You could, of course, sell any of the Orbs previously mentioned too, but only now it'sactually worth the hassle.

This can also be traded with vendors to get 1 Orb of Fusing for 16 Orbs of Alteration.

Use them to reroll affixes onmagic Flasks, Jewels, and possibly low-level blue maps. Normally you would have to use Orb of Transmutationand Orbof Scouringin an altering fashion to re-roll a Magic item, but sinceOrbs of Scouringare often too expensive for this endeavor, we recommend using these Orbs instead. ImplementOrbs of Augmentation into this method if you've rolled only one good modifier.

In Bench-Crafting.

You can purchase one for four Orbs of Augmentation at a vendor. It's not the best value, but compared to buying them from other players, it may save you a lot of time.

You can also sell identified Rare items and be rewarded with Alteration Shards.

Use it on an item to randomize its sockets' colors. There's a huge demand for them as getting the right colors is often quite hard. Don't use too much of them during leveling, definitely not to get off-color sockets.

Different Gems require different socket colors or else they won't fit. The chance of getting specific colors varies from item to item. For example, items that require Strength to use will be much more likely to have red sockets. The color green is associated with Dexterity and blue with Intelligence. The higher the requirementis, the more likely you are to get the expected colors. That's why it is hard to get these so-called "off-color" sockets on your end-game gear while rolling 6 red sockets on a Mace is likely to happen with just one Chromatic Orb.

Instead of relying on luck, you can use Crafting Bench to just get the sockets you want, but in most cases, the price of doing so is too high. It's only viable on rare occasions to get off-color sockets.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

A lot of those can be found during leveling and farming, from direct drops as well as from selling 3-linked R-G-B (red, green, and blue sockets) items to vendors. Unless you play a very niche build you should have a lot of those lying around.

You can buy one for 3Jeweller's Orb at a vendor.

Used to improve the Quality of a Flask, which increases its duration or the amount ofLife/Mana recovered if applicable.

It's advised to only upgrade the finishedFlasks/Unique Flasks you bought with already good Affixes on them, or use them on a Normal Flask first, and then start crafting - that will only require you to spend 4Glassblower's Baubles instead of 20 to get the 20% Quality. The only Flask that you may not want to upgrade isVorana's Preparation, but that's an oddity.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players, but keep in mind no person has a good reason to buy more than 100 of them at a time so it may be troublesome.

You can trade8 Blacksmith's Whetstones for oneGlassblower's Bauble at a vendor, or sell them a 20% Quality Flask you've looted.

Used to transmute a Normal item into a Rare item (that has always four to six Affixes)in a similar fashion to theOrb of Transmutation. These are always regularlyused, but most players manage their own demand so it may be hard to sell them.

We suggest using them to quickly create Rare maps, it's a technique called "alch & go". If you're not happy with the result (there may be a build-disabling mod on them) use Orb of Scouring and once moreOrb of Alchemy, or simply oneChaos Orb. It depends on which Orb is more valuable at the moment as Scouring and Chaos Orbs are worth roughly the same.

Can be also used to improve the rarity of Strongboxes in higher-level areas if you have them at hand (especially Diviner's Strongboxes). As for regular gear pieces, you may use them once or twice during the early leveling phase, but in most cases, Essences or vendor recipes are a better alternative.

To buy cheap leveling gear and gems, it's the lowest denomination that some players will still use as a proper currency, especially at the start of a new league.

In Bench-Crafting.

The vendor's recipe for them is to get three of the same item, each with a different rarity (Normal, Magic, and Rare).

Selling Rare or Unique items with specific Affixes will grant you Alchemy Shards.

Used to transmute a Normal rarity item into a random rarity item - Magic, Rare, or even Unique. Note that a lot of Unique items cannot be "chanced".

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

In Bench-Crafting.

If you're feeling lucky, try to roll an expensive Unique item with it. Get an equally large amount of Orbs of Scouringand a desirable base item with a high enough Item Level, or simply a lot of Normal base items. It's gambling in its purest form, but due to the relatively high price ofOrbs of Scouringthe odds are against you most of the time. Be sure your Item Filter is set up to highlight a good base itemwith Normal rarity and high Item Level if you want to use them.

SellingNormal, Magic, Rare, and Unique items of the same base type to a vendor will grant you 4 Orbs of Chance.

Selling a full set of items with their Item Level up to 59 will get you one such Orb, two if they're unidentified.

You can buy them for 1Orb of Fusing from vendors.

Adds an extra passive respec point on use. You will probably need some of them when you re-specialize your leveling Passive Skill tree at a level of around 60 to 80 (depending on your chosen build). You may need them later to fix some of the mistakes you've made, but if you're sure that decision won't come back to bite you, sell them.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Respec passives.

Trading one Gem and one Orb of Regret will downgrade it to level one. It's used very rarely in specific builds which need low-level alternate-quality Gems.

To obtain the Book of Reform - if you want to change the outcome of a quest "Deal with the Bandits" from Act 2 you can do so with 20Orbs of Regret and a specific Amulet.

You can buy them for twoOrbs of Scouring at a vendor.

Changes the number of sockets on an item. During your leveling phase, we suggest storing those Orbs. It will be much cheaper to loot or buy suitable 3 or 4-linked gearthan crafting it with Jeweller's Orbs and then Orbs of Fusing.

Use them on a gear piece to randomize the number of sockets on it. It cannot exceed 6 sockets on a 2-hand weapon or body armor, 4 on the rest of the armor pieces, and 3 on one-hand and off-hand items. You won't be able to use them on an item with an already maximum number of sockets. Note that increasing the item Quality will also increase the Chance of getting a higher number of sockets, so don't forget to useArmourer's Scraps orBlacksmith's Whetstones first.

You should have plenty of them to use on various items or trade them at a vendor for Orbs of Fusing at a good rate of 4Jeweller's Orbs for 1Orbof Fusing. It's worth doing even if you plan to sellthem later, which is an exception.

Selling an item with 6 sockets to a vendor will get you 6 of these Orbs. We recommend picking up such items.

Changes the number of links between sockets on an item. It's a rather expensive Orb that at some point you will either sell in bulk or use yourself.Linking 4-socket items will cost a handful of them, but linking six sockets on an item with 20% Quality (which increases the chance for more links) is much more expensive, around 1000 of them will be probably needed.

Most of the builds use an item (Body Armour and/or 2-hand Weapon) withsix sockets that need to be linked. Having only 5 sockets linked is often enough, but having one more is the easiest way to improve your damage. Accumulating enough Orbs of Fusing to link your first item yourself is not a good idea, you can buy cheap rare items with 6-links for a few Chaos Orbsinstead.

If you have over 1000 Orbs of Fusing, try to 6-link an item you plan to use or flip later for currency, as the price difference between fully-linked and any other item (which is good) may be greater than the amount you'd get by just selling these Orbs.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

In Bench-Crafting. You can spend 1500 Orbs of Fusing to fully link an item after unlocking the recipe. 150 for a five-link. You can choose these options if you don't like gambling or clicking.

There are quite a few various vendor recipes including this orbyou may want to take a look at.

Selling an item with 6 linked sockets to a vendor will get you 20 of these Orbs. We recommend picking up such items.

Trading 4Jeweller's Orb for one Orb of Fusing at a vendor is a good deal, as mentioned earlier.

Reforges a rare item with new properties (4 to 6 completely random Affixes). It's the most commonly traded currency item in Path of Exile, a measure of wealth. Our suggestion is to collect and progressively trade them for better and better gear pieces, starting at 1 Choas Orbs.

It's usually a complete waste to use it to reforge gear. Never use it on items, that is unless you are rich and like to gamble. Just be sure that the item level is high enough or is properly influenced.

Reforging a map is another story. Usually, there are a few mods that you absolutely do not want to have on a map, so you can quickly randomize it again in hopes of replacing it with some other Affixes suited for your build. It's the best use for this Orb, other than trading.

Trade them for literally anything else, it's the best allegory to a dollar the game offers.

In Bench-Crafting.

There is a similarrecipe to that forOrb of Chance.Selling a full set of items with their Item Level between 60 and 74 will get you one such Orb, two if they're unidentified.

Improves the quality of a gem. Unlessyou are starting your adventure in a new league, most of the gems with high quality will be cheaper than Gemcutter's Prisms required to improve their quality to corresponding levels.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Improve the Quality of some of the Gems you're using. You can also trade level-20 Gems with oneGemcutter's Prism at a vendor for a level 1 such Gem with 20% Quality. We would recommend using this trick - leveling Gem to level 20 takes only a day or two.

Selling looted superior Gems (Gems with Quality above 0%)to a vendor will get you these Prisms. For every 20% of their shared Quality, you will get oneGemcutter's Prism, so it's a sound idea to pick every single superior Gem.

Removes all properties from an item. Basically turns the item into a Normal rarity item with no properties, just the Implicit mods. However, sockets and links are not considered properties of an item so those will stay there untouched. There are many uses for this Orb, especially in crafting.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

As mentioned already in theOrb of Alchemy and Chaos Orb sections, you may want to use them on maps that have a debilitating mod. The "alch & go" technique is, in reality, more complex - "alch & check if the map is ok, if not re-roll with Chaos Orb or Scour it and apply Orb of Alchemy again & go". Choose the latter ifyou have more Orbs of Scouring than Chaos Orbs.

In Bench-Crafting - to remove modifiers.

Decrease the level of a Gem by 1. Tradethis Orb and a Gem you want to level down at any vendor.

You can buy one for 4Orbs of Chance at a vendor.

Upgrades a Magic item into a Rare item. There are no efficient uses for this orb early in the game.

It can be used in meta-crafting. It might not be a bad idea also to craft Rare Jewels (and Rare Cluster Jewels) with this, as long as you happen to find a decent Magic Jewel with two good Affixes and want to try your luck to get something valuable (usually it won't be, but it's hard to find a better use for this orb).

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Corrupts an item. While able to completely ruin a valuable possession, it can possibly enhance it with new powerful properties. It may change some sockets to white, reforge an item to a rare one with random Affixes, sockets, and links, add a special Vaal Implicit, or have no effect at all. If the outcome of such Corruption is undesirable, the item is considered broken,or "bricked". It's very hard and expensive to modify a Corrupted item, but it can be done using rare Tainted Currency, which we won't cover in this guide.

This Orb is mainly used to corrupt high-tier (red) maps for the Atlas progression. You will use it regularly for this purpose until you've completed all the red, Rare, and corrupted maps.

Corrupting Rare Strongboxes is a great idea as it will increase the rarity and quantity of items inside of it.

It can increase the level or quality of a Gem. By Corrupting level 20 Gem, you may increase its level to 21 (there is a 1 in 8 chance for that), which is a substantial improvement for Spell Skills. Enlighten or Empower Gems can be Corrupted too for an immensely expensive level 4 variant (note that if you want to increase the level AND get the Vaal variant of a Skill Gem (if it has such a variant) you must use Lapidary Lens instead).

Corrupting Jewels may result in Unique Jewel, some of which are valuable. There is also a Corrupted Implicit available only for Jewels that grants immunity to Corrupted Blood that a lot of players desire.

For a full list of special Vaal Implicits, check "List of item corrupted implicit modifiers" on a Wiki. You will rarely use this orb on your gear pieces as the chance of bricking them is too high, and the special Implicits are not worth taking that risk.

You have to rely on luck to randomly loot it from slain enemies.

Not a very popular Orb because of itsvery limited usage. It randomizes the numeric value of the implicit properties of an item.Considering their drop rate, these Orbs are usually not worth much but still, don't use them on your leveling or temporary gear.

Use them on your gear pieces to roll a better implicit.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Used to improve map quality. Commonly utilized by high-level players to improve high-tier maps quality for more and better loot. There is a high demand for Cartographer's Chisels so it's rather easy to trade them away, but using them yourself on tier-16 maps is recommended.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Use them on Normal tier-16 maps. Doing so will only cost 4 Chisels. Upgrade the rarity of these maps after Chiseling.

Sell a 20% Quality map to a vendor for one Chisel. Do so with low-tier or Corrupted maps that you can't run.

Selling multiple maps with greater than 0%Quality.For every 40% of their shared Quality, you will get oneCartographer's Chisel.

As we've mentioned in the Blacksmith’s Whetstone section, you can combine aNormal rarity hammer(Stone Hammer, Rock Breaker, Gavel) with any map, and sell them to a vendor for one Chisel.

You can buy them from Kirac usingChaos Orbs, but they're usually worth half of that on the market.

Randomizes the numeric value of all Affixes within their tier range. It's the second-most popular currency item, used in trading for valuable items. Do not use them on your items.

Trade them for items. One such Orb is worth hundreds of Chaos Orbs.

Theother use is to re-roll extremely important affixes on an extremely expensive (often Unique) item. A good example is a Mageblood Belt that works best if it affects 4 Flasks, but the numeric value of this specific affix ranges from 2 to 4. Selling three Unique Items to a vendor will serve the same function as a Divine Orb, but, of course, a single Mageblood is worth much more.

To increase your chancestarget-farmspecific Divination Cards that drop on particular maps or from certain monsters. We recommend running aCemetery Map forBrother's Gift Cards.

Adds a random Affix to a rare item. These are very rare, each is worth 10 to 20Chaos Orbs, but are rarely used in trade.

Apply them to an already good item to have a chance of upgrading it. What we recommend doing, is using them on Jewels with three good modifiers already (you can't Bench-CraftJewels).

Keep in mind that in most cases it's better to use Bench and craft the desired mod (it can be removed later too with no issue). If your item has an open Affix despite already crafting the extra mod on a Bench, then it's a good idea to use it.

In Bench-Crafting.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Creates a mirrored duplicate of a non-unique item. Most of the players will never have a chance to see this item in the game, however, it can drop anywhere, so if you are lucky enough don't waste it - it's worth hundreds of Divine Orbs. It's only used by the upper echelon, the most wealthy and influentialof all players.

Trade them for Divine Orbswith other players.

To mirroran item. The mirrored item cannot be modified or mirrored, so if you're the owner of the original that people want to make copies of, you will set up a Mirror Service shop - the most lucrativeenterprise in the entire game. You may also sell the original item for multiple mirrors.

If you're reading this, the more likely scenario is for you to be serviced by a mirror shop owner, where thefee for mirroring an item is at least one mirror. Do it with reputable players so asto get scammed, and be sure the item is worth its price.

As was the case with Divine Orbs, don't count on just randomly looting it from a monster. Skew the chances by aiming for particular Divination Cards.

You may assemble a Mirror from 20 Mirror Shards, which drop from Harbingers (take Harbinger nodes on your Atlas Skill Tree), but these are also extraordinarily rare.

Ancient Orb reforges a Unique item as another of the same item class. For example, a Unique Leather Belt will become another Unique Leather Belt, and so on.Unique Jewels, Flasks, or Maps cannot be re-rolled. It re-rolls sockets and links in the item.

Sell them in bulk to other players. They are relatively expensive, and getting profit fromthem requires a rather significant investment(and even then, it is extremely luck-reliant).

If you want to use them to get a desired Unique item, check if it's in the core drop pool first. A Unique Heavy Belt (like Belt of the Deceiver or Bisco's Leash) may turn into Mageblood, but it will take many attempts.

It can drop anywhere, but the most efficient way to farm them is with Harbingers aiming for Ancient Shards.

Orb of Annulment removes a random property from a Magic or Rare item. These are somewhat valuable.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

If you have an item with several good Affixes, but also some unwanted ones, using this Orb may yield a positive result, but it's a pure gamble and we don't recommend using them.

Engineer's Orb increases the quality of a Strongbox.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Engineer's Orb may be used on Strongboxes, especially Diviner's Strongboxes or the ones found in the Temple of Atzoatl.

Reforges a map as another map of the same tier.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

If you need to complete a particular map for Atlas progression, use this Orb on a map you've already completed to re-roll it.

Use them onspecial tier-16 maps that include a Guardianof the Void (Hydra, Chimera, Minotaur, or Phoenix) to re-roll the Guardian into another one. It cannot re-rollElder Guardian or Conquerors bosses.

There is a recipe for a random Scarab - it includes two random Scarabs of the same tier and type and one Orb of Horizons. You may use this recipe on two of your least-valuable Rusted Scarabs in hopes of getting one of the more valuable ones, but it's rarely profitable - gathering Scarabs and selling them in bulk is still more lucrative.

You may simply use them on Maps you don't want to run due to their poor layout.

Orb of Binding upgrades a Normal item to a Rare item withup to 4 linked sockets. This is very similar to Orb of Alchemy. It's one of the most uselessOrbs on the list.

It's a replacement for Alchemy Orb that better not be used on 5 or 6-link items. Finding buyers is difficult.

Reforges a map into a map of a higher tier. It cannot be used on tier-16 maps as it's the highest tier.Has a chance to transform a map into a Beachhead Unique map. It's usually worth as much as a Chaos Orb.

Use them on maps you've already completed to obtainuncompleted maps for Atlasprogression.

Use them on your tier-15 maps for tier-16 maps, or better yet aBeachhead Unique map.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

It drops only fromHarbingers in the form of Harbinger's Shards.

Fractures a non-influenced, non-synthesized, and non-fractured Rare item that has at least 4 modifiers and no Eldritch implicit modifiers. A Fractured item has one of its modifierspermanently fixed - it cannot be removed. It's the second most valuable Orb in the game.

Sell them to other players, they're extremely expensive.

You may use them on a suitable Rare item that has a particularly uncommon modifier (from Delve or a Temple of Atzoatl) that you want to keep. Before using it do a bit of research to find out what's the most valuable Fractured mod at the moment, and what's the best base item to craft it on. Otherwise, it's probably a waste of resources, so don't do it if you're not 100% certain what you're doing.

Adds or rerolls a modifier on a Voidstone. You will use them after defeating the end-game bosses. They're always in high demand.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Use them on your Voidsontes every 3 map runs to enhance your maps in various ways.

Sextant-rolling is a very popular and profitable way to get rich without leaving your hideout.Check the most recent guide on how to do it as it may change from league to league. It requires 4 Voidsontes, so you will need to kill The Maven, The Searing Exarch, The Elder, andThe Eater of Worlds.

It's similar to the Orb of Regret, but instead of a Passive Skill Point respec, it grants an Atlas Passive Skill Point respec. You will use them regularly to re-adjust your Atlas Skill Tree.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Use to enable or disable various nodes and Keystones scattered all across the AtlasPassive Skill Tree. You will make use of them at some point as your early-game Atals Tree will probably differ from an end-game Atlas Tree. That, or you may get bored of running the same content over and over again.

Orbs of Unmaking are sold by Kirac for 2Orbs of Regret.

It's similar to the Chaos Orb, but instead of simply reforging a Rare item, itguarantees one veiled modifier. These are quite rare.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

Use them in hopes of gaining a specific Veiled mod. It's a very complicated and expensive method that involves meta-crafting modifiers, so if you're not familiar with the process, just sell them.

It has a small chance of dropping anywhere.AssignAisling a room in the Research safehouse and raid it for a much higher chance of getting them (Betrayal mechanics).

Creates a portal to the Rogue Harbour where it plays the role of an actual,proper currency to trade with NPCs. It has no use beyond Rouge Harbour.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

If you plan to engage with Heist mechanics, keep them.You can use Markers to hireRogues for Heists or to revealBlueprint details in Grand Heists.

It can drop anywhere, but your best chances are to openSmuggler's Cache you encounter randomly on a map, or to sell a Heist itemto Faustus, which is part of a core gameplay loop for theRogue Harbour location.

Apply it to a Utility Flaskto improve it, but prevent it from gaining charges during its effect. These improvements are: increased Charge Recovery,reduced Charges per use,increased Duration,increased effect, or extraMaximum Charges.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

It's used only in specific circumstances. The most recognizable one is in combination with Mageblood and the modifierfor a 70%increased effect in each of your four Flasks.

You can also apply it toThe Overflowing Chalice, as it cannot gaincharges during its effect anyway, or other offensively-oriented Flasks like Bottled Faith that offer only one use per boss fight. With this Orb, it may offer two. It's hard to gain Flask Chargers during boss fights anyway.

You have to rely on luck to randomly loot it from slain enemies.

Apply it to a Utility Flaskto improve it. It will add a condition, that if met, will automatically trigger a Flask.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players.

It's a very common Orb that most of the players use on their Flasks. "Used when Charges reach full" is great to have on your defensively-oriented Flasks. "Used when you Hit a Rare or Unique Enemy, if not already in effect" is often used for offensively-oriented Flasks.

You have to rely on luck to randomly loot it from slain enemies.

Sacred Orb has an absurdlyimperceptible effect on your armor piece - it re-rollsthe numeric values of base defenses (Armour, Evasion, Energy Shield, or Ward). Most of the players pay no attention to it, as the most impactful improvement here is the usage ofArmourer’s Scraps. It's also one of the rares Orbs in the game for some reason.

Trade them for Chaos Orbswith other players - it's very valuable, and their worth always grows over time as the league progresses.

We absolutely do not recommend using it unless you have absolutely no idea how to further improve your build. It's used for the finishing touches to get slightly more Armour, Evasion, or ES.
