Path of Exile 2's bustling trade channels frequently feature high demand for White Stellar Amulets, often fetching 10-15 Exalted Orbs each. This significant value often puzzles players. The answer lies in the amulet's potential and the methods used to enhance it. Let's explore the reasons behind this lucrative item.
Why are White Stellar Amulets So Valuable in Path of Exile 2?
Plain White Stellar Amulets, possessing only the inherent "+# to All Attributes" modifier, are key ingredients in crafting the highly sought-after
Astramentis Stellar Amulet. This transformation is achieved using an
Orb of Chance.
Astramentis' exceptional power stems from its massive attribute boost (+80-120 to All Attributes). This synergizes perfectly with the Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps, another top-tier Unique item, significantly enhancing attack speed and lightning damage based on Intelligence and Dexterity.
Crucially, only White Stellar Amulets can be used to create Astramentis. Blue (Magic) or Yellow (Rare) amulets are unsuitable. This exclusivity explains their higher value compared to enhanced versions.
Sell or Gamble? The White Stellar Amulet Dilemma
The odds of successfully crafting Astramentis with an Orb of Chance are extremely low. Even using numerous amulets (e.g., 100) doesn't guarantee success. While luck plays a role, the chances remain slim.
The choice to sell or gamble is entirely personal. Selling a White Stellar Amulet yields 10-30 Exalted Orbs, depending on market conditions. Alternatively, you can risk it all for a potentially massive reward. It's a high-stakes gamble, and the decision rests solely with the player.
Using the Orb of Chance for Astramentis: A Guide
To attempt the transformation, place the White Stellar Amulet in your inventory, right-click the Orb of Chance, and left-click the amulet. Possible outcomes include:
- Amulet destruction.
- Upgrade to a unique sharing the same base. Two possibilities exist:
Astramentis (highly unlikely)
Fixation of Yix (more common, less desirable)
Remember, amulet destruction is a very real possibility.
