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

Path of Exile 2's trading channels frequently feature high demand for White Stellar Amulets, often fetching 10-15 Exalted Orbs. This article explains the reasons behind this significant value.

The primary reason for their desirability lies in their potential to transform into a highly sought-after unique item.

Why are White Stellar Amulets so Valuable?

Normal (white) Stellar Amulets, possessing only the inherent "+# to All Attributes" modifier, are key ingredients in crafting the Astramentis amulet. Astramentis is a top-tier unique amulet due to its substantial attribute boost (+80-120 to All Attributes). This synergizes exceptionally well 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 be used to create Astramentis. Magic (blue) or Rare (yellow) amulets are unsuitable. This scarcity significantly increases the value of normal Stellar Amulets.

To Sell or to Gamble?

The odds of successfully crafting Astramentis using an Orb of Chance on a Stellar Amulet are extremely low. Even using numerous amulets doesn't guarantee success. While a lucky strike is possible, it's statistically improbable.

The choice to sell your White Stellar Amulets (yielding 10-30 Exalted Orbs depending on market conditions) or gamble on Astramentis is a personal risk-reward assessment.

Crafting Astramentis: A Step-by-Step Guide

The process is straightforward: place the white Stellar Amulet in your inventory, right-click the Orb of Chance, and left-click the amulet to initiate the transformation. Possible outcomes include:

• Amulet destruction.
• Transformation into a unique amulet:
  • Astramentis (highly unlikely)
  • Fixation of Yix (more common, less desirable)

The high risk of destruction and the low odds of obtaining Astramentis make this a gamble only the most daring players should undertake.
