Divine Orbs are almost synonymous with Path of Exile 2 and its predecessor. They’re a fundamental part of the trading and crafting economy, to the point where they’re frequently used as a pillar by which many of its items and other currencies are measured. In the new PoE 2 0.5 update, Return of the Ancients, the drop rate for them is going up. According to developer GGG, there’s a very simple and slightly silly reason for this – although, in a moment of mischievousness, the team almost considered going dramatically in the opposite direction.

 Path of Exile 2 Return of the Ancients raises Divine Orbs drops, and Director Jonathan Rogers hopes it’ll make direct comparisons harder.  PCGamesN
