How to Farm Greater Jeweller's Orb in PoE 2

The Greater Jeweller's Orb can drop from any monster in Path of Exile 2, but the chances are slim, making it most viable to farm in Tier 10+ maps. The most effective method involves exploiting Breaches within wide open Grass biome maps.

Farm Location: Any Breach in a wide open Grass biome map.

Waystones: Use T10+ fully upgraded Corrupted Delirous maps enhanced with Orb of Alchemy, Exalted Orb, Delirium Instills, and Vaal Orb if necessary.

Best Waystone Modifiers:

• Increased Number of Rare Monsters
• Increased Pack Size
• Increased Item Quantity
• Increased Number of Monster Packs
• Increased Quantity/Rarity of Items Found
• Rare Monsters have 1 additional modifier

Best Atlas Skill Tree Node: Local Knowledge increases the drop rate of Socket Currency by 40% in Grass Biomes, which includes Greater Jeweller's Orbs.

Build: Opt for a build with fast wave clear and decent defenses, such as Ice Strike Invoker Monk, Deadeye Ranger, or Stormweaver Sorcerer.

How Does Local Knowledge Work

Local Knowledge is an early Atlas tree node that shifts the weighting of drops to favor Socket Currency by 40% in Grass biomes. This includes Lesser Jeweller's Orb, Greater Jeweller's Orb, and Perfect Jeweller's Orb. However, activating Local Knowledge can negatively impact drops in other biomes, such as Desert Biomes favoring Baryas and Ultimatums, and Mountain Biomes favoring Gold. To optimize your farming, respec out of Local Knowledge for non-Grass, Forest, or Swamp biome maps.
