Funny Lesser Jeweller's Orb Misunderstanding
When I found my first lesser jeweler's orb, probably in act 3, I previously hit a limit of 2 sockets on my bow, after which artificer orbs had no effect. I saw "jeweler's orb" and, coming from PoE 1, thought "oh this goes in weapons/armor for sockets," and seeing "2 to 3 sockets" when I skimmed the description confirmed to me that it would go on weapons/armor after using artificer's orbs. So I figured I'd save it until I found a really good weapon or armor.
About 10 hours later I finally googled how to increase the sockets in my gems and saw I had 15 lesser jeweler's orbs. Obviously the description is very clear if you read it, but the name tripped me up. It's my "fault" but I blamed the game, since I heard act 3 is a slog so it just made sense that enemies would suddenly seem to have 25% more health than they should. It's such an important upgrade I'm surprised it's not a quest reward with instructions to use one. Last bumped on Dec 15, 2024, 2:14:46 PM
