According to player video, like {{il|Orb of Chance}},<ref name=chancing/> '''Ancient Orb''' ignores [[item level]] of the original item. A unique item that have a low ilvl, can be flipped to item that have higher required level to equip or on a base that have a higher drop level.<ref name="Ancientorb3.8"/> For example, an ilvl 1 {{il|Storm Cloud}} can be flipped to {{il|Death's Harp}} (on a lvl 32 bow base) by using Ancient Orb (skipping lower required level 2x4 sized bows {{il|Roth's Reach}} (lvl 18) and {{il|Doomfletch}} (lvl 28) ).<ref name="Ancientorb3.9"/> In other words, using low ilvl unique belt may not be able to block the chance of getting high level unique belt when using Ancient Orb to try to get the {{il|Headhunter}}.


It is worth noting that using Ancient Orb will remove any [[influenced item|influences]], as well as remove enchantments from the item. Links and Sockets are re-rolled as well.

Ancient Orb is a currency item that can be used to reforge a unique item as another of the same item class in the broader sense of the term, such as "flask" instead of life/mana/hybrid/utility flask.[1] This will also change the sockets (if any) on the item.

Item acquisition

Ancient Orb has restrictions on where or how it can drop. Drops from Harbingers or Harbinger-related rewards.

Recipes

Ancient Orb can be created from the following recipes:

Spending

Reforging a unique item means the base item type can change when the orb is applied. Ancient Orbs do not change the inventory size of an item, so 2x4-sized "tower shields" for example stay within that group[2].

Notably, unique items specific to past temporary leagues, such as HeadhunterHeadhunter

Requires Level 40+(25-40) to maximum Life+(40-55) to Strength
+(40-55) to Dexterity

can be obtained with an Ancient Orb only while standing in a map to which the appropriate league's mod has been added with Zana's Map Device.


It is worth noting that using Ancient Orb will remove any influences, as well as remove enchantments from the item. Links and Sockets are re-rolled as well.
