The Ingenuity Utility Belt is a highly sought-after unique item in Path of Exile 2, essential for various builds. Acquiring this belt is no easy feat, requiring players to be deep into the endgame and capable of defeating pinnacle bosses. For those with ample Divine Orbs, purchasing the belt is a straightforward, albeit costly, option. However, for players looking to obtain the Ingenuity Utility Belt without spending real money, here's a detailed guide on how to do so.
How to Get Ingenuity Utility Belt Unique in PoE 2
To obtain the Ingenuity Utility Belt, players must defeat the King in the Mists, an endgame Ritual Boss. Access this boss fight by using the 'An Audience With the King' item at the Realmgate in the Atlas. Navigate through waves of enemies to reach the final confrontation. Upon defeating the King in the Mists, there's a chance to receive the Ingenuity Utility Belt as a reward.
The King in the Mists has a unique drop table, with the Ingenuity Utility Belt being one of five possible unique items. The drop rate is approximately one in every five fights, making it not guaranteed but also not rare. The full list of potential drops includes:
- The Burden of Shadows Chiming Staff
Beetlebite
From Nothing
Pragmatism
Ingenuity
The King in the Mists fight scales in difficulty, with higher tiers offering a better chance at the desired drop. Be prepared for the boss's powerful AoE attacks, which can be lethal. Familiarize yourself with his moves, as they are similar to those encountered in Act 1's Freythorn.
Alternatively, players can purchase the Ingenuity Utility Belt from the official PoE 2 trade site for around 15-50 Divine Orbs, depending on the item's rolls. This method is more expensive but ensures you get a belt with high stats.
How to Get 'An Audience With the King' in PoE 2
'An Audience with the King' can be acquired through two methods:
- Trade Site/Currency Exchange: The item typically costs between 4-7
Divine Orbs.
- Ritual Maps: There's a small chance of obtaining 'An Audience with the King' as a Ritual favor in Ritual maps. These favors are costly, ranging from 2700 to 3900 Tribute. If you can't afford it immediately, use the 'Defer' option in the 'Favours' menu to lower the cost in future Rituals. It should reappear within 1-4 maps.
If you're not ready to face the boss after obtaining 'An Audience with the King,' consider hiring a carry for 1-2 Divine Orbs. This can help you earn Ritual points and other rewards on the Atlas or sell the item.
Can You Get The Utility Belt Using Orb of Chance in PoE 2
No, the Ingenuity Utility Belt cannot be obtained using an
Orb of Chance. It's not part of the regular loot table and can only be dropped by the King in the Mists or acquired through trading.
