Path of Exile 2 Unveils Stellar Amulets

Path of Exile 2: The High Value of White Stellar Amulets

Path of Exile 2's bustling trade channels frequently feature high demand for White Stellar Amulets, often fetching 10-15 Exalted Orbs. This significant value might puzzle many players. Let's delve into the reasons behind this amulet's popularity.

The allure of these amulets stems from their potential to transform into a highly sought-after unique item. This guide will explore the reasons for their value, the risks involved in using them, and the process of attempting the transformation.

Why are White Stellar Amulets So Valuable?

White (normal rarity) Stellar Amulets, possessing only the inherent "+# to All Attributes" modifier, serve as the key ingredient in crafting the incredibly powerful Astramentis unique amulet. This transformation is achieved using an Orb of Chance.

Astramentis' exceptional strength lies in its substantial attribute boost (+80-120 to All Attributes). This synergizes perfectly with the Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps, another top-tier unique item, enhancing attack speed and lightning damage based on Intelligence and Dexterity.

Crucially, only white Stellar Amulets can yield Astramentis. Blue (magic) or Yellow (rare) amulets are unsuitable. This exclusivity significantly elevates the white amulet's worth compared to its rarer counterparts.

To Sell or to Gamble? The White Stellar Amulet Dilemma

The probability of successfully obtaining Astramentis via Orb of Chance is exceedingly low. Attempting this conversion with a single amulet is generally not recommended. Even using multiple amulets carries a high risk of failure. While exceptional luck is always possible, it's statistically improbable.

The choice of selling your White Stellar Amulets or gambling on Astramentis is a personal one. Selling guarantees a return of 10-30 Exalted Orbs (market dependent), while attempting the Orb of Chance offers a high-risk, high-reward scenario.

Using the Orb of Chance to Aim for Astramentis

To attempt the transformation, place the White Stellar Amulet in your inventory, right-click the Orb of Chance, and left-click the amulet. The possible outcomes are:

• Item Destruction: The amulet is lost.
• Unique Item Creation: The amulet transforms into a unique item sharing its base type. Two possibilities exist:
  • Astramentis (the highly desirable outcome)
  • Fixation of Yix (a less valuable alternative)

The more common outcome, if the gamble is successful, is Fixation of Yix, making Astramentis a rare and highly sought-after prize. Remember, failure results in the complete loss of the Stellar Amulet.
