My feedback on the current drop rate for greater orbs and perfect jeweler orbs.
I got 99 lesser jeweler orbs and a perfect ain't 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4s0LNRiDnzU Last bumped on Jan 12, 2025, 9:10:46 AM

My, admittedly terrible PoE2 build, has plenty of lesser jewelers, two (one?) greater, and no perfect jewelers.
Then again my clear speed, monster kills, rarity, quantity, etc. are all lacking compared to the "good" builds that the game seems to be balanced around. YMMV. Last edited by KingAlamar#4071 on Jan 11, 2025, 9:26:45 AM

In 215 hours of gameplay I somehow found 2 perfect jeweller's orb but also only 2 greater jeweller's orb. How does GGG think a player can have multiple builds when only so few jeweller's orb can be found.
I had to trade for the greater jeweller's orbs. is that what an ARPG is meant to be. Not finding stuff but buying them? I am grinding level 15 and 16 maps for quite some time but am unable to find a level 20 gem. I do not want to buy a level 20 gem for 1 divine. I want to find it myself. And I need the highest level of my build to attack the citadels. Do I also have to buy these GGG? Is that what an ARPG is supposed to be. Not finding anything yourself, but trading (= buying) everything? I also traded all my gear, because finding good gear is impossible as is RNGing them with orbs. I hardly use exalts anymore trying to improve gear. I only get bad modifiers. Is that what you want an ARPG to be GGG? Last edited by McHuberts#7978 on Jan 11, 2025, 9:37:42 AM

" U have to grind T17/T18 maps for a better chance to get a lvl 20 gem. On topic, I found countless lesser jewellers, 5 or 6 greater and 0 perfect so far. Got 2 chars to 92 and the third just started mapping. (dropped one lvl 20 gem after prioritizing it) |

" Yes, when I say t15/t16 I mean without the irradiation. With my luck I do not think I will ever get a lvl 20 gem. That makes the game so frustrating. It would be nice to get a good feeling about the game once in a while. Get a nice drop that makes it worthwhile, that gives you the feeling that you achieve something. |

The reward structure definitely needs some fixing. I think my luck so far is pretty average and it feels ok, but I can see people on the lower end of RNG struggling alot. If u don't find any rare item ever it will feel like a waste of time eventually.
Best item I "crafted" so far is:  It felt good for a short amount of time, until I realized I'll never use it over my 54% rarity helmet with crap stats. Damn just thinking about rarity makes me mad XD |

In SSF. Two characters, Level 90 & Level 85. Total played, roughly 4 days and 2 days respectively.
0, yes zero, Greaters or Perfects. Though, I have found 7 Divine's. Not quite as exciting in ssf. Edit: Apparently, the key is to come out here and complain. Second map after posting this, a greater dropped during breach. Last edited by Lazygrave#7479 on Jan 11, 2025, 11:29:19 AM

I also didn't have any greater drop until 2 days ago and then on the next day another dropped. Unfortunately, I'm not even sure I want to use it for my current build because I have no idea if this would really help that much.

Rariety has been discovered to have a dimished return after 100% it isnt as busted as people initially thought. A lot of testing has been done, like Thousands of maps, and found only a 5-10% diff between 100 and 450%
In 300 hours I have found 1 Greater and 0 Perfect. |

400+ and 3 perfect I dropped 2 after 250% rarity
