Path of Exile Currency

Currency in Path of Exile is not just gold by another name. It is the trade system, the crafting system, and the upgrade path all packed into one item category. Every orb has a job, whether you are buying gear from another player, rolling maps, fixing sockets, crafting rares, or saving up for a bigger upgrade.

Chaos Orbs and Divine Orbs are the currencies most players think about first because they are tied so heavily to trade value. Exalted Orbs, Vaal Orbs, Orbs of Annulment, Orbs of Fusing, Orbs of Alchemy, and other crafting items all matter too, depending on what your build needs next.

Then there are the expensive pieces.

Mirror of Kalandra, Mirror Shards, Hinekora’s Lock, Fracturing Orbs, Sacred Orbs, Awakener’s Orbs, and other high-value currencies sit in a different tier. These are the items players look for when they are planning serious crafting, mirror-tier gear, high-end trades, or expensive build upgrades.

Use this category when your stash is short on buying power, your maps need rolling, your gear needs work, or your next upgrade is sitting in trade and you do not want to farm every orb manually.
