Which orb(s) have you probably unknowingly spent the most of?

We all play this game differently. Some of us map constantly. Others like to roll new toons. Some farm for recipes exclusively, while others may respec their builds constantly. And then there are those who "craft" to make their living. But the one thing most players have in common is that we burn through orbs. Tons of them, of 1 kind or another, whether it be Fusings, Jewellers, Alts, Chroms, Chroms, etc.

So: which 1 orb have you probably spent the most of in your entire PoE career?

For me, it's a toss-up between Chroms and Regrets. I can't even begin to remember the amount of times I've had to dump Chrom after Chrom to get 3 off-colors on a particular boot/glove/helm, just so I could use certain skill gems. But, I think worth-wise, I've probably spent the most in Regrets, just randomly respeccing bits and pieces of my passive tree. It's so easy to get caught up in min-maxing trees: 3 Regrets here, 3 Regrets there and before you know it, you've somehow spent 30+ Regrets remaking your entire character.

Have to say I'm addicted to chancing. I use every Chance orb I find, pretty much as soon as I find it. I keep a page of whites that I want to chance and have no end in sight for them.

In terms of value?? Uh, Mirrors I guess because that sh*t adds up fast.




In terms of quantity, it's definitely fuses. Many, many fuses.

Followed by chromes and alts, not sure what order.

I wish I had the problem of unknowingly spending too many Mirrors :(

Heh yeah it's not really "unknowing" I guess, just most total value spent.

Probably alterations. Just for roll decent magic maps
wisdoms obviously, but in terms of real currency?

more alchs than fusings and chaos combined....

yes.

more alchs than chaos and fusings combined.

I said that twice, in case the doubt forced you to
misinterpret.

ambush:

traded both fusings and chaos for alchs and laughed...
was 3:1 for chaos, and just over 1:1 for fusings.

people thought they were taking me for a ride when
I offered fusings 1:1, and yes there were better rates
to be had for fusings but I was totally out of chaos...

on several occasions I traded 65-70 fusings for an exalt,
then traded that exalt for about 90 alchs...

because on small scales, 1:1 was a common fast trade,
9:10 was generally not very fast...

but put that "exalt" in your WTB and people would JUMP.

ALCHS ARE DRASTICALLY OP.

if you don't know why, thats just one more advantage I have
than the rest of you. (extra stash tabs help here)

sold regrets for chaos, for more alchs.
Chances by far. I probably spent upwards of 5,000 in ambush. Got a Kaoms though, so that was cool.

Probably jewelers after that.
