Hi there, Path of Exile challenges players by introducing unique twists to the usual RPG elements. One of the unique twists is the absence of a currency based on money. Players trade with one another through trade PoE orbs. Although these orbs serve their own purpose as items, however, they're also easy to obtain and you'll be able to collect a lot during your adventure through Wraeclast. They're also used for transactions using NPCs and, consequently, they're the official currency for the game.

There are around 31 orbs, as well as a variety of pieces and baubles that gamers consider money. If you're a novice you'll likely have no clue about how or when to make use of these shards and baubles. This guide can help.

At the beginning

Begin by building up your collection. Don't make use of your orbs for anything yet. Make sure you know your building and the way you'd like to play it first. Be concerned about your equipment and gems when you've completed the design. You can use your orbs at that point.

Crafting

At the time of the game's end, the players begin to build the equipment they want to use. If you'd like to join in then you'll require the following:

Orbs of Transmutation

Orbs of Chance

Orbs of Alchemy

Chaos Orbs

Orbs of Alteration

Regal Orbs

Exalted Orbs

Eternal Orbs

Orbs of Scouring

Divine Orbs

Blessed Orbs

An inventory of Chromatic Orbs would also be useful if you wish to alter the color of the gem sockets on the item. In any case, we're not going to get too far into crafting, as it's a complex process that requires a guide. If you go through the process, you'll discover that you'll require a lot of the above-mentioned orbs. Begin stocking up before the deadline, so that you don't need to use up all your resources before you begin making.

Alternative Methods to Get Currency

There are several ways to acquire orbs as well as other PoE currency in a consistent manner. They're great for replenishing inventory after crafting or for accumulating enough orbs to purchase the equipment you're looking for.

One is delving. Make sure you have enough azurite in order to limit the darkness resistance and light radius for low-level zones. Don't exhaust all your azurite, however, because you'll have to purchase fireworks and dynamite, too. While exploring, you should look for Fractured Walls in the dark. This is where fossils are found and could fetch as high as 200 Chaos Orbs. However, that price is only available for most exclusive fossils and you're likely to come across ones that will sell for much lower prices.

Another approach is to make items to sell. Look up or search for popular modifications on the equipment, and create them. If you don't, you can offer the services of making customized items or other products. You can browse some of the public channels to discover which services are lucrative or feasible for you.

A Few Parting Words

There are many other ways of cultivating the Path of Exile currency, however, those listed above are the most reliable ones. This doesn't mean you don't have to put in the effort to achieve them, however. You'll be working hard and repeating the same tasks over and over. Make sure you break up your work and perhaps shift methods if one is becoming boring.

There is no need to follow this tutorial word-for-word. Do what you want to and have fun. You can leave crafting entirely and instead buy equipment. Or, you can invest every penny trying to find the perfect set of equipment. It's entirely up to you. Good luck.
