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 eludes players. The answer lies in their potential for transformation into a much more valuable item. Let's delve into the details.

What Makes 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, one of the game's most valuable unique amulets. This transformation is achieved using an Orb of Chance.

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

Crucially, only white Stellar Amulets can yield Astramentis. Blue (Magic) or Yellow (Rare) 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 obtaining Astramentis with an Orb of Chance are extremely low. Even using numerous amulets (e.g., 100) doesn't guarantee success. While luck can play a role, it's a risky proposition.

The choice to sell or gamble is entirely yours. Selling a White Stellar Amulet typically nets 10-30 Exalted Orbs, depending on market fluctuations. Alternatively, you can risk it all for a potentially massive reward. It's a high-stakes gamble requiring careful consideration.

Using the Orb of Chance for Astramentis: A Guide

To attempt this 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 type. For Stellar Amulets, two uniques are possible:
  1. Astramentis (the desired outcome)
  2. Fixation of Yix (a less desirable alternative)

Fixation of Yix is statistically more likely than Astramentis if the gamble is successful. Remember, failure results in amulet destruction.
