Navigating the Path of Exile 2 Trade System: A Comprehensive Guide
While solo play is possible in Path of Exile 2, trading with other players significantly enhances the experience. This guide details the in-game and online trade market mechanisms.
In-Game Trading
Two primary methods exist for in-game item exchanges:
-
Direct Trade: If you share an instance with another player, right-click their character and select "Trade." Both players choose items for exchange, and confirm the trade upon agreement.
-
Chat-Initiated Trade: Use global chat or direct messages to contact players. Right-click their name in the chatbox to invite them to your party. Teleport to their location and initiate a trade by right-clicking their character.
The Path of Exile 2 Trade Market (Official Website)
Path of Exile 2 features an online auction house accessible via the official trade website (link omitted for brevity, as it's readily available online). A PoE account linked to your gaming platform is required.
Buying Items:
Utilize the website's filters to locate desired items. Click "Direct Whisper" to send an in-game direct message (DM) to the seller, arrange a meeting, and complete the transaction.
Selling Items:
A Premium Stash Tab (purchased from the in-game Microtransaction Shop) is necessary. Place the item in the Premium Stash and set it to "Public." Right-click the item to set its price; it will automatically appear on the official trade site. Awaiting a buyer's DM to arrange the in-game trade completes the process.
