Path of Exile 2's bustling trade chat frequently features high-demand for White Stellar Amulets, often fetching 10-15 Exalted Orbs. The reason behind this significant value often puzzles players. This guide explains why.

The high price reflects either a direct need for the amulet in specific builds or its potential for conversion into something even more valuable. Potential sellers need to understand this value proposition.

Why are White Stellar Amulets So Valuable in Path of Exile 2?

Normal (white) Stellar Amulets, possessing only the inherent "+# to All Attributes" modifier, are key ingredients in crafting the highly sought-after Astramentis Stellar Amulet. This is achieved using an Orb of Chance.

Astramentis' immense power stems from its substantial attribute boost (+80-120 to All Attributes). This synergizes exceptionally well with the Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps, another top-tier Unique item, enhancing attack speed and lightning damage based on Intelligence and Dexterity.

Crucially, only white Stellar Amulets can yield Astramentis. Magic (blue) or Rare (yellow) amulets are unsuitable. This scarcity explains the premium placed on normal Stellar Amulets.

Sell or Gamble? The White Stellar Amulet Dilemma

The odds of successfully crafting Astramentis with an Orb of Chance are incredibly low. Even using numerous amulets (e.g., 100) doesn't guarantee success. While luck can play a role, the probability is generally unfavorable.

The choice between selling or gambling with your White Stellar Amulets is a personal one. Selling guarantees a return of 10-30 Exalted Orbs (market dependent), while gambling offers a potentially massive reward but carries significant risk of loss.

Using the Orb of Chance to Hunt for Astramentis in PoE 2

To attempt the gamble, place the normal Stellar Amulet in your inventory, right-click the Orb of Chance, and left-click the amulet. Possible outcomes include:

• Amulet destruction.
• Upgrade to a unique sharing the same base. Two possibilities exist:
  1. Astramentis (highly unlikely)
  2. Fixation of Yix (more common, less desirable)

A failed gamble results in amulet destruction. Proceed with caution!
