The Ingenuity Utility Belt is a coveted unique belt in Path of Exile 2, highly sought after for its build-defining potential. However, acquiring it isn't a walk in the park. You'll need to be deep into the endgame, wielding a build capable of consistently defeating pinnacle bosses.

Alternatively, if your currency stash is overflowing with Divine Orbs, buying one is the most reliable method. But for those seeking a less expensive route, read on.

How to Get Ingenuity Utility Belt Unique in PoE 2

The Ingenuity drops exclusively from the King in the Mists, the challenging endgame Ritual Boss. To fight him, you'll need 'An Audience With the King,' which you use at the Realmgate on the Atlas. Defeat the waves of enemies to reach the final boss. Victory might reward you with the Ingenuity Utility Belt, but it's not guaranteed.

The King in the Mists has a unique drop pool of five uniques:

1. The Burden of Shadows Chiming Staff
2. Beetlebite
3. From Nothing
4. Pragmatism
5. Ingenuity

While not guaranteed, Ingenuity drops roughly once every five fights. The King in the Mists offers multiple difficulty tiers, with increased boss power and drop chances at higher levels. The fight's main challenge lies in the boss's one-shot potential with certain AoE attacks. Fortunately, many of these attacks mirror those of the King in the Mists encountered earlier in Act 1, offering some familiarity.

Alternatively, you can purchase the Ingenuity Utility Belt on the official PoE 2 trade site for approximately 15-50 Divine Orbs, depending on the item's rolls. It's significantly more expensive but guarantees a potentially high-roll item.

The Ingenuity Utility Belt drop is not guaranteed, but it's not exceptionally rare either.

How to Get 'An Audience With the King' in PoE 2

You can obtain 'An Audience with the King' in two ways:

• Trade Site/Currency Exchange: Expect to pay around 4-7 Divine Orbs.
• Ritual Maps: This item has a low chance of appearing as a Ritual favor. However, the Tribute cost (2700-3900) is substantial. If you can't afford it immediately, defer the item using the 'Defer' option in the 'Favors' menu. It should reappear at a lower cost within 1-4 Ritual maps. Defer it again if needed until you can afford it.

If you acquire 'An Audience with the King' but aren't ready, consider seeking carries (often for 1-2 Divines) for Ritual points and rewards, or sell it.

Can You Get The Utility Belt Using Orb of Chance in PoE 2

No. The Ingenuity Utility Belt isn't part of the regular loot table. It cannot be obtained from regular monster kills or using Orb of Chance on items like Astramentis/Polcirkeln. It's an exclusive drop from the endgame King in the Mists and can only be obtained through defeating him or trading.
