Spending
Orbs of Chance are primarily applied to particular base item types in the hopes of obtaining a particular unique item, a process referred to as chancing. However, the resulting item is most commonly a magic item, and uncommonly a rare item. Because of this, players should carefully weigh the cost of using up Orbs of Chance to obtain a specific unique against the cost of simply trading for that unique. The chance of creating a unique item is different for every unique and depends on the rarity of that specific unique[1]. The base item's item level doesn't limit the type of unique items that can be obtained, so it is possible to obtain what are otherwise map-only unique items.
An Orb of Chance cannot create:
- Unique items that are only available through vendor recipes
- Event prizes
- Unique items that exclusively drop from certain bosses or in certain areas
- Upgraded versions of items, like blessed items, fated items or items only available through corruption
An item filter can highlight base items as they drop for use with an Orb of Chance.
Care should be taken to use an item with high enough item level to get a desired number of sockets or other effects based on item level such as a Vaal Orb corruption.
Notably, unique items specific to past temporary leagues, such as HeadhunterHeadhunter
Leather BeltRequires Level 40+(25-40) to maximum Life+(40-55) to Strength
+(40-55) to Dexterity
+(50-60) to maximum Life
(20-30)% increased Damage with Hits against Rare monsters
When you Kill a Rare monster, you gain its Modifiers for 60 seconds"A man's soul rules from a cavern of bone, learns and
judges through flesh-born windows. The heart is meat.
The head is where the Man is."
- Lavianga, Advisor to Kaom or Voll's DevotionVoll's Devotion
Agate AmuletRequires Level 32+(16-24) to Strength and Intelligence+(20-30) to maximum Energy Shield
+(30-40) to maximum Life
+(15-20)% to all Elemental Resistances
30% reduced Endurance Charge Duration
30% reduced Power Charge Duration
Gain an Endurance Charge when you lose a Power Charge"We are the soldiers of Faith, armoured in devotion.
Let the sinners come, for we - the Pure - shall endure!"
- Voll of Thebrus, at the Battle of the Bridge, can be obtained with an Orb of Chance only while standing in a map to which the appropriate league's mod has been added with the Map Device. Depending on the item, this can be one of the most profitable ways to use Orbs of Chance since they can be used to obtain items that are nearly unobtainable otherwise.
In races or at low levels, players may also find using Orbs of Chance on good base item types useful for quickly crafting a potentially usable magic or rare item.
One can sell 4 Orbs of Chance to Yeena in exchange for an Orb of ScouringOrb of ScouringStack Size: 30Removes all modifiers from an itemRight click this item then left click on a magic or rare item to apply it.. Orbs of Chance can also be sold to vendors in exchange for magic amulets.
