In the bustling trade chat of Path of Exile 2, White Stellar Amulets frequently fetch high prices, often ranging from 10 to 15 Exalted Orbs. This might leave many players puzzled about why these particular items command such a premium. Understanding the value behind these amulets is crucial, especially for those considering whether to sell or use them.

What Makes White Stellar Amulets Valuable in Path of Exile 2?

White Stellar Amulets, characterized by their normal rarity and the implicit modifier "+# to All Attributes," hold a special allure. The key to their value lies in their potential to be transformed into the highly coveted Astramentis Stellar Amulet using an Orb of Chance.

Astramentis stands out due to its powerful attribute boost (+80-120 to All Attributes), making it a game-changer when paired with items like the Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps. This combination significantly enhances a character's attack speed and lightning damage based on their Intelligence and Dexterity.

It's important to note that only White Stellar Amulets can be used to attempt this transformation. Blue (Magic) or Yellow (Rare) variants do not qualify, which explains why these normal amulets are more valuable than their upgraded counterparts.

Should You Sell White Stellar Amulets or Use the Orb of Chance

Attempting to obtain Astramentis through the Orb of Chance method is a high-stakes gamble. The odds of success are incredibly slim, and even using 100 Stellar Amulets might not yield the desired result. While there's always a chance of hitting the jackpot, it's generally not advisable to rely on this method.

Deciding whether to sell your White Stellar Amulets or take the risk is a personal choice. Selling one could net you between 10-30 Exalted Orbs, depending on current market rates. Alternatively, you might choose to roll the dice and see if fortune favors you. It's a decision that comes with significant risk but also the potential for substantial reward.

How to Use Orb of Chance To Get Astramentis in PoE 2

To attempt the transformation, place the Normal Stellar Amulet in your inventory, right-click on the Orb of Chance, and then left-click on the Stellar Amulet. The possible outcomes include:

• The item being destroyed.
• The item being upgraded to a unique sharing the same base. For Stellar Amulets, the potential uniques are:
  1. Astramentis
  2. Fixation of Yix

Fixation of Yix is the more common outcome, making it less desirable than Astramentis. If the attempt fails, the Stellar Amulet is likely to be destroyed.
