News Tag: POE 2 Chaos Orb

In POE 2, you will often encounter monsters and bosses that need to be fought, and as the game progresses, the difficulty of the battles will increase. Here, besides using the right builds, you also need to obtain some gear or items that can perfectly cooperate with your builds.

Although some gear may require you to exchange by specific POE 2 Currency, some will be provided to you as loot after you complete a task or defeat a boss, including Ingenuity Utility Belt.

Based on this, we will introduce you to how to obtain Ingenuity Utility Belt and its main functions.

What Is Ingenuity Utility Belt?

In fact, you can think of this belt as a highly universal ultimate item in Path of Exile 2, because its unique effects not only make it compatible with most builds but also interact well with your other gear to create more combat benefits. So once you reach POE 2 endgame, you’ll definitely want to incorporate this belt into your endgame build.

Of course, as useful as this Path of Exile 2 item is, it’s usually difficult to obtain. To get Ingenuity Utility Belt, you’ll need to track down a difficult endgame boss, and there’s no guarantee that the belt will drop even if you defeat it. But given how effective the belt is, you should still try.

How To Get It?

The prerequisite for getting this belt is to defeat a boss called King in the Mists, but before you can start that fight, you’ll first need to collect An Audience with the King. Like Ingenuity Utility Belt, this is a rare item that can only be obtained after you win the campaign on both Normal and Cruel difficulty and reach the endgame through Atlas of Worlds.

Once you reach the endgame, you can unlock Altar of Favors, which is actually a store that sells map nodes and events instead of items - fortunately, you may also meet An Audience with the King in it.

It should be noted that Altar of Favors only accepts tribute as currency, and it usually takes 2,900 to 3,700 tributes to exchange for An Audience with the King, so you need to accumulate tributes for a long time before you can get An Audience. The current way to farm tribute is to complete Ritual events on Atlas.

But if you think this is troublesome, you can also try to exchange POE 2 Chaos Orbs for An Audience with other players through Path of Exile 2’s trading system - you may think, then why not just exchange it to get Ingenuity Utility Belt? This is of course possible, but the orbs required will also be more.

However, no matter how you get An Audience with the King, you will be asked to bring it back to Realmgate, which will allow you to enter The Crux of Nothingness, where King in the Mists will appear.

How To Defeat King In The Mists?

This boss battle consists of two phases, with many complex mechanisms. First, in the first phase, you must destroy the totems he spawns as soon as possible, otherwise you will be continuously damaged by them. As for the attacks launched by the boss, you can avoid them by continuing to move to avoid being trapped in place.

Another thing worth noting in this phase is that the boss will occasionally teleport around the arena and spawn monsters around. At this time, you need to destroy them quickly to avoid being attacked by these monsters. When the boss’s health drops to 25%, you will be teleported to a maze. Just follow the floating lights to find a way out and you will enter the second phase of the battle.

In the second phase, the boss will focus more on outputting AOE damage, so you need to be careful to avoid the tornado he summons. If you are hit by it, your armor will break. While dodging his normal attacks, be sure to avoid the frogs and exploding purple blocks he summons.

Once you successfully survive both phases and defeat this boss, you will have a chance to obtain one of the following five unique items:

• The Burden of Shadows Chiming Staff
• Pragmatism Explorer Armor
• Beetlebite Velour Shoes
• From Nothing Diamond
• Ingenuity Utility Belt

Although the higher the difficulty level of this boss fight, the higher the chance of obtaining these items, the overall drop rate of the Ingenuity Utility Belt is still relatively low.

Use Of Ingenuity Utility Belt

After obtaining this belt, you can equip it like equip any other gear. It gives you an amulet slot to equip your favorite amulet and also provides you with two permanent effects:

• 20% of the flask’s recovery is applied immediately
• The bonus provided by the equipped ring is increased by 40-80%

The first buff means that whenever you use Life or Mana Flask, you will get some healing immediately; the second buff increases the effectiveness of your equipped ring, making it synergize well with most POE 2 builds, allowing your ring to fully utilize its own value.

If you find it difficult to get high-level equipment and materials in POE 2, or you don’t have time to challenge various enemies and bosses to farm items constantly, then trading will become the most suitable way for you to get the items you need.

Path of Exile 2’s trading system allows you to exchange with others through POE 2 Chaos Orb to obtain more powerful equipment or rare items. Or if you want to upgrade equipment and stock up on crafting materials, the trading system can also help you succeed.

Currently, POE 2 provides you with two ways to trade: directly with other players in the game, or through the official trading platform on the website. Based on this, we will introduce these two methods to ensure that you can trade smoothly.

In-Game Trading

Trading directly with other players in the game is currently the most convenient way to exchange items in Path of Exile 2, and you can do it without leaving the game. And whether you want to trade equipment, materials, or other items, the in-game trading system applies. This method will be particularly useful when you meet friends or teammates in the world who can trade with you.

How To Do It?

First of all, it is important to note that in-game trades can only be made in safe areas, such as towns or camps, as these areas ensure that you and others will not be interfered with by enemies when trading or meeting.

If you are trading with friends, then any town or camp that you are both familiar with will work. However, if you are trading with someone you are not familiar with, it is best to trade in a town in the first act, such as Lioneye’s Watch. This is because most players are familiar with its location and will almost certainly have unlocked it.

Once you and your trading partner are in the corresponding area, you need to follow these steps:

• Approach the trading partner and interact with them.
• After interacting, a list of options will be displayed. Click the third “Trade” button to send a trade request to the other party.
• Wait for the trading partner to accept the invitation.
• Once the other party accepts the request, the screen will pop up with new content, showing your inventory and two boxes for offering items to each other.
• Put the item you want to trade in your box.
• Wait for the other player to put the item in their offer box.
• Once an agreement is reached, you can accept the trade and the items of both parties will be exchanged between the two inventories.

It is worth noting that before accepting a trade; it is best to hover your cursor over the potential trade item, which will display detailed information about the item and help you check it out so that you can make a more informed decision before trading.

What Is POE 2 Online Trading?

Compared to direct trading in the game, the online trading system provided by Path of Exile 2 official website requires you to exit the game and use some time waiting for the transaction to be completed, but this trading system also provides you with a more detailed search function, which is very suitable for finding specific items that may not be easy to find or trade in the game.

So if you have enough time and POE 2 Currency and are trying to trade specific things, or just want a simpler way to trade bulk items, then online trading will be more suitable for you.

How To Trade Online?

To trade online smoothly, please be sure to follow the steps below:

• Go to Path of Exile 2 official website.
• Find “Trade” tab located fifth on the left side of the page. Click this tab and log in to your POE account.
• Once you have successfully logged in, you can use filters or “Search” tab to find what you need. This will also show you a list of players who want to trade related items.
• Select the item you want to trade and send a private message to the player who listed the item to make the trade.
• Once both parties accept the trade, your items will be exchanged from your respective inventories.

In fact, you will find that the biggest advantage of online trading is that it is easier to trade in bulk, such as multiple crafting materials or consumables. So, except for specific items that are difficult to find in the game, online trading is also more suitable for large-scale trading needs.

What Mistakes Can You Make When Trading?

While trading is a good way to get new Path of Exile 2 items, you should also avoid some potential mistakes, otherwise you will waste your time and resources.

In comparison, it is easier to make mistakes when trading online on the website than in the game, but according to player feedback, there are some oversights that are easy to make in both trading methods. The main ones include the following:

• Not carefully checking the item details before completing the transaction.
• Ignoring bulk trade opportunities.
• Failing to research the current market value of certain items.
• Not using filters when browsing trade content.
• Completing the transaction too hastily.

To avoid the above mistakes, first you need to fully check the specific information of the traded items before trading, especially rare items. When looking for items to trade online, always use the search and filter options to focus on the items that really meet your needs to ensure that your time is not wasted.

And I believe you have also discovered that most of the mistakes are related to carelessness. Therefore, you need to avoid rushing into transactions, reconsider the possibility of causing the transaction to fail, and confirm the transaction after careful inspection. Otherwise, you may accept unworthy transactions or even put the wrong items into the trading window, causing unnecessary losses.

Although trading is a good way to get items, it is not free. However, there is a chance to get POE 2 Orbs for free now, that is to participate in a POE 2 Currency giveaway event in IGGM Discord!
