Harbinger's Orb is a currency item that can be used to reforge a map into another map one tier higher. It may instead transform the map into The Beachhead.
A Harbinger's Orb can be used on a tier 1-15 map to reforge it into a random map one tier higher. There is a small chance that the map will instead be transformed into The Beachhead.
If the map is reforged one tier higher, the map's rarity will remain the same, but its affixes will be rerolled. Any quality, implicits, influences, enchantments, or Delirium layers will be retained. A Harbinger's Orb doesn't obey the player's Atlas of Worlds rules, which means that the resulting map may not be unlocked yet.
If the map is transformed into The Beachhead, it becomes the tier 5, tier 10, or tier 15 variant that corresponds to the tier bracket (white, yellow or red) of the original map. It will retain the quality of the original map, but any implicits, influences, enchantments, or Delirium layers will be lost.
