Path of Exile 2's bustling trade chat frequently features high demand for White Stellar Amulets, often fetching 10-15 Exalted Orbs. Many players question this significant value. The answer lies in their potential and the desires of buyers. Let's delve into the details.
Normal-rarity Stellar Amulets, possessing only the implicit "+# to All Attributes," serve as the key ingredient for crafting the coveted
Astramentis Stellar Amulet, a top-tier Unique 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 high-value Unique, enhancing attack speed and lightning damage based on Intelligence and Dexterity.
Crucially, only White Stellar Amulets can yield Astramentis. Magic (Blue) or Rare (Yellow) amulets are unsuitable. This scarcity explains the premium placed on Normal Stellar Amulets.
The odds of successfully crafting Astramentis with an Orb of Chance are extremely low. Attempting this with only a few amulets is generally unproductive. Even using 100 might not guarantee success. While luck plays a role, the probability of success is minimal.
The choice between selling your White Stellar Amulets (yielding 10-30 Exalted Orbs depending on market fluctuations) and gambling for Astramentis is a personal one. It's a high-risk, high-reward proposition.
To attempt this gamble, place the Normal Stellar Amulet in your inventory, right-click the Orb of Chance, and left-click the amulet. Possible outcomes include:
Amulet destruction is the most likely outcome if the gamble fails.
