Path of Exile Orb of Scouring is a Poe currency item that can be utilized to get rid of all random modifiers from magic or unique piece of gear. Implicit modifiers, high quality, sockets, and hyperlinks not removed, as well as affixes protected by meta-crafting mods.

 



I've applied Orbs of Scouring a couple of occasions so far. The primary use of it seems to be if, by way of example, you find a magic item with excellent sockets, but, still, it is only magic. You may use an Orb of Scouring to eliminate the magical affixes and return it to standard, then an Orb of Alchemy to turn it into a rare item, generating it much more potent and useful than it initially was.

Whetstones/Scraps are also considerably more efficient on ordinary items than on magic/rare items, so it indeed is frequently worth it to Scour an Item back to normal, improve the high quality, then use an Orb to return it to its former level. Of course, you won't want to do this if it already has elite affixes, as the odds of having them back is going to be pretty much nil.

Ok so top quality increases by 5% per corresponding quality growing orb made use of on white, 2% per blue and 1% for rare and above and mapped previous a particular level (IIRC 72and above) are worth Poe exalted Orb

If the map dropped as uncommon and has shit rolls like a combination of (mobs have GMP + Chain + deals 100% Dmg as lightning + elemental weakness on map + -23% max player resistance )
It's 101% worth it to scour it to white and chisel it 4x rather than 20x as rare. Chisels are worth about five = a piece of GCP at this time, so you save like 15 chisels worth by scouring it and Alch-ing it once more following gouges! Not surprisingly, I am exaggerating on the mods, but you get what I imply:)

Similarly, you might get some 67-68 maps like sewers and spider lair that happen to be worth doing in blue and maze-Ed, and it dropped in rare with some crazy stuff, you may as well scour it.
Since contrary to beliefs - the majority of people who spam selling maps wind up trading away maps like ghetto, arsenal, dungeon, wharf and also the likes! 67 maps like sewers you'll want to alt and uncover a maze rather than spending chaos upon chaos for the reason that it's mean worth don't warrant chaos-es.

Of course, persons are also making use of scourings on things like glorious plates and altering them for Kaom's Heart. A further scenario that a single could believe of is a 6-L white imperial bow dropped (extremely unlikely needless to say), and someone wants a 6-L Lioneye's Glare glare unique and chance and scour it.

Hopefully, they are some scenarios that you are going to encounter though playing the game at the map-level that'll encourage scouring utilizes - almost certainly why you don't see substantially of them until merciless because to new players it might seem lackluster initially glance.
