In Path of Exile 2, the Currency Exchange system stands as a pivotal feature, enabling players to transform their lower-tier Currencies into higher-tier ones, which can then be used for trading or crafting. This system plays a crucial role in managing your Currency collection effectively. However, navigating the fluctuating rates of Currency Exchange can be challenging due to the market-driven nature of these rates.
To stay updated with the ever-changing Currency Exchange rates in Path of Exile 2, you need to check them directly in the game. The rates are dynamic and reflect the current market conditions, making in-game verification the most reliable method.
How to Check Currency Exchange Rates in PoE 2
To access the Currency Exchange, you should talk to the gambling vendor available in any Act once you've reached the Cruel Difficulty. Within the Currency Exchange menu, you'll find two boxes designated for different Currencies.
Start by clicking the left box and selecting the Currency you're interested in acquiring—or the one you want to convert your existing Currencies into. For instance, if you're looking to check the current rate for a Divine Orb, click the left item tab and choose Divine Orb from the list.
Next, click the right item tab in the Currency Exchange menu to view a list of your available Currencies from your Inventory and Stashes. Continuing with our example, to see the price of a Divine Orb in Exalted Orbs, select Exalted Orb from your list of available Currencies in your Stash.
The conversion ratio between the two selected Currencies will be displayed between the item selection boxes. So, if you're looking to acquire a Divine Orb using Exalted Orbs, you'll need to pay the number of Exalted Orbs shown on the right-hand side of the ratio.
This process is reversible. If you have a Divine Orb and wish to convert it into Exalted Orbs, simply select Exalted Orb from the "Want" list and your Divine Orb from the "Have" list.
Remember, the Currency Exchange rates in Path of Exile 2 are subject to constant updates, which means the conversion rates can change dramatically within a short period. It's advisable to check these rates regularly while playing to capitalize on favorable exchanges for powerful Currency items.
If a specific Currency combination isn't available—for example, trying to exchange a Divine Orb for Scrolls of Wisdom—the exchange ratio won't be shown, and the transaction will not be possible.
