By coolyou When you play Path of Exile 2, you will quickly learn that Divine Orbs are one of the most valuable pieces of PoE 2 currency. They can change the values of your item’s modifiers, which means a good Divine Orb use can turn an “okay” item into something amazing. Today, let’s talk in simple, kid-friendly words about which items get the most value from Divine Orb rerolls — and how you can save time, make smart choices, and know when to buy PoE 2 currency for faster progress.
Rare Items with Strong Base Mods
The items that benefit the most from a Divine Orb are rare items that already have the right mods, but their numbers are too low.
For example:
If you have a rare amulet with +1 Fire Skills, increased damage, or big life rolls, but the rolls are at the low end, a Divine Orb can push those numbers higher.
Tip: Only use Divine Orbs on items that already have the best mods you want.
Don’t use it on trash. Use it on something already good so it becomes GREAT.
High-Value Uniques with Big Mod Ranges
Some unique items have huge ranges, meaning the difference between a bad roll and a perfect roll is huge. These are perfect candidates for Divine Orbs.
Good examples include pieces with:
- Large life bonuses
- Critical strike multipliers
- Big damage conversion numbers
- Extra projectiles or skill boosts
When the range is large, rerolling can massively increase the value of your item.
Small strategy: If a unique’s price jumps a lot between low-roll and high-roll versions, that means Divine Orbs are very useful on it.
Influenced and Endgame Gear
Influenced items (like Elder, Shaper, or new PoE 2 influence types) can roll special powerful modifiers. These mods often have large value ranges.
A Divine Orb can turn a good influenced weapon into a monster by improving things like:
- Added damage rolls
- Increased critical chance
- Skill-specific boosts
Because influenced mods are rare, improving their values with Divine Orbs is one of the best returns on investment.
When Should You Actually Use a Divine Orb?
Here’s a simple checklist (almost like a little game guide a kid could follow):
- Does the item already have the perfect combination of mods?
✔ Yes → Divine is worth it
✖ No → Don’t waste the orb - Is the mod range big enough?
Big range = huge improvement
Small range = not worth it - Is the item something you will use for a long time?
If yes → Great target
If no → Save your orb
Smart Currency Tips (Real Practical Stuff)
Here are some real strategies players use to stretch their currency:
1. Upgrade your craft BEFORE Divine rolling
If the item isn’t finished crafting, don’t reroll yet. You might waste the orb.
2. Only Divine near the end of your gearing stage
Divines are expensive. Save them until your build is stable.
3. Buy items instead of rolling sometimes
Sometimes it’s cheaper to buy PoE 2 currency or just buy a better item instead of rerolling endlessly.
4. Use u4gm once in a while if you want fast currency
Only one mention as requested — but yes, many players use it for convenience when they want to skip grinding.
Best Item Types to Divine (Quick List)
If you just want the “fast answer,” here you go:
- Rare amulets with skill levels
- High-tier influenced weapons
- Rare rings with life + resist + damage rolls
- Uniques with giant roll ranges (like life or crit mods)
- High Armor/Evasion/ES chest pieces with big defense ranges
Final Helpful Advice
Divine Orbs are amazing, but they’re even better when used wisely. Focus on items already close to perfect. Don’t reroll random junk. Understand the value ranges. And when you need more power or more orbs, don’t be afraid to buy PoE 2 currency to speed up your progress.
