help about chaos orb.

hello,
just wondering, I'm level 53 cruel act 3, not a single drop of chaos orb all this time.
it doesn't make sense, what am I missing? is there any other way to get chaos orbs? maybe they drop only after merciless?

thank you...
As far as I know random drops and trades are the only ways to get them. Im pretty sure Ive had them drop on normal difficulty. Sory bout the bad luck. :/

normal difficulty? it doesn't make sense, I don't understand. its hard to trade lvl53 gear with no chaos at all.
Most of my most valuable orbs (2 exalts, something like 15 chaos and countless alchs) have all dropped below Merciless.

RNG.
in my time below merciless i saw roughly twice as many chaos drop as alchemy

go figure
Playing Hardcore is like spending your life savings on a supercar and then driving it around uninsured just for the thrill of possibly crashing it.
Chaos orbs are certainly not only for Merciless. I found one in the Terraces on normal. About 20mins into a new character.

All I would suggest is adding as much increased rarity items as you can and any items you have that increase the drop rate...

Hopefully your luck will change around :D
Trade recipe for Chaos Orb
Recipe: 2 rare rings, 1 rare amulet, 1 rare boots, 1 rare gloves, 1 rare belt, 1 rare armour, 1 rare headpiece + either 1 rare two-handed weapon or 1 rare one-handed weapon + 1 rare shield or 2 one-handed weapons, quivers do not seem to count in any of these recipes!
Reward: 1 Chaos Orb (2 if items are unidentified)

Note, these can be of any level. So save up rares and dump them when you have a full set into the traders' sell window to get a chaos orb
Hmm, till level 70 on hardcore, I looted about 4 chaos, traded about 50 and crafted about 40 or so.

So excluding trading, I crafted ten times more chaos orbs then I looted.
Arbitrary placeholder decisions should never be embraced as final.

Actually, there's a recipe to get it from vendors. If you stick in a rare item from all slots (head, torso, weapon, shield etc.) for a total of 9 pieces of gear (8 if you vendor a rare 2-handed weapon) you get a chaos orb. If all the pieces are unidentified, you get 2 chaos orbs.

Probably worth more than if you vendored them separately.
Use a quantity gem or have it on your gear to potentially get more currency to drop. Item rarity will have no effect of currency quality or quantity.
No tears. Only dreams now.
