An Exalted Orb is a currency item that can be used to enhance a piece of rare equipment with a new random affix.

Obtaining

Exalted Orbs are extremely rare currency items that can be dropped by slain monsters, chests, and destructible containers. They also drop from Arcanist's Strongboxes.

Unlike most other currency, these orbs can't be obtained through vendors, except for a very unprofitable vendor recipe where the player trades an Mirror of Kalandra for two Exalted Orbs, five Regal Orbs and one Divine Orb.

Divination cards

The following divination cards have exalted orbs as their reward.

Spending

Exalted Orbs are high-value currency that play a crucial role in the in-game economy. Their primary purpose is to craft high-end rare items. Because of this, it is regarded as the "gold standard" currency for trading between players, with many trade deals listed in terms of Exalted Orbs. Since the average player does not have the means to craft high-end items, the average player typically trades Exalted Orbs for other valuable equipment instead of consuming them.

For powerful or wealthy players looking to use Exalted Orbs on powerful rare items, there are two primary methods to consume them. The first is through direct use of the orb, adding a random affix to a rare item that does not already have six affixes. The other is to add high-end affixes from Forsaken master crafting benches by paying a fixed amount of Exalted Orbs. The latter method grants crafters access to the special meta-crafting mods which cannot be rolled naturally.
