Something magical is happening in Path of Exile 2 lately. For the past three days, I’ve been seeing an incredible boost in drop rates—especially for high-value currencies like Divine Orbs. It’s not just me, either. Friends in my guild are reporting the same, and it feels like the currency gods are smiling down on Wraeclast. So if you’re farming or just getting back into the game, this is the perfect time to get serious about PoE 2 currency.
Let me walk you through how I’ve been consistently getting Divine Orbs and other valuable currency like Exalted Orbs, Chaos Orbs, and Ancient Orbs over the past few days—and how you can do it too.
1. Run High-Value Maps with Scarabs and Sextants
One of the biggest changes I made was to stop running random maps and start being intentional. I began focusing on Tier 14–16 maps, adding strong scarabs (especially Reliquary and Ambush Scarabs), and rolling the map modifiers to be challenging but rewarding. Also, I used Sextants on my Watchstones to stack extra packs and influence mechanics. The more monsters you kill, the more loot you get. Sounds simple, but this method has been raining Divine Orbs like crazy.
2. Master Missions = Bonus Loot
Every time you open a map, make sure to add a Master Mission—preferably Alva or Jun. Alva’s temples can give you high-tier loot rooms like the "Wealth Room," which has a solid chance of dropping high-end PoE 2 currency. Jun’s Betrayal safehouses are also treasure troves—especially if you build your board for currency-focused rewards. I've gotten Divine Orbs from Intervention safehouses multiple times this week.
3. Don't Ignore Strongboxes
Strongboxes have been incredibly profitable lately. Using a Gilded Ambush Scarab guarantees four additional strongboxes per map. Roll them with Alchemy orbs until you get “contains currency” or “guarded by magic monsters” mods. Then use a Vaal Orb if you’re feeling lucky. Some of my best drops—two Divine Orbs in one map—came from a corrupted Arcanist’s Strongbox.
4. Daily Chaos Recipe Runs
While not as exciting, doing the Chaos Recipe (selling a full set of unidentified rare gear to a vendor) is still one of the best ways to stack currency fast, especially early in a league. I keep two stash tabs filtered for level 60–74 rares and do my recipe runs between maps. It adds up fast, and you can convert Chaos Orbs into Divine Orbs later when needed.
5. Buy PoE 2 Currency When Needed
There’s no shame in buying when RNG isn’t on your side. Sometimes, you just need to grab that last Divine Orb to finish your build. I personally use u4gm because their delivery is fast, and I’ve never had any issues. Just make sure you’re not overpaying—check prices before buying PoE 2 currency so you always get the best deal.
6. Timeless Emblems and Boss Rush Strategy
If you’ve got a bit more gear and confidence, running the Timeless Emblem domains (Legion encounters) can flood you with loot. I ran a 5-way battle with full emblems and got three Divines and stacks of Ancient Orbs in just 15 minutes. Bring a high-damage build and rotate with friends to make it even more efficient.
7. Always Have Loot Filters Updated
Lastly, update your loot filter. Many players miss high-tier PoE 2 currency because their filter hides or undervalues certain orbs. Use NeverSink’s filters and adjust for “semi-strict” or “strict” depending on your current farming method. This ensures you never leave valuable loot behind.
So if you’ve been wondering when to farm, now is the time. Whether you're stacking loot in endgame maps, flipping gear, or just doing daily missions, this drop rate boost makes everything feel rewarding. Just remember to sell smart, buy PoE 2 currency when it helps your build, and take full advantage of the hot streak while it lasts.
Good luck out there—and may your maps be filled with Divine Orbs!
