Orb of Augmentation - worth anything?

The title pretty much says it all. Can they be traded? If so, at what rate to, for instance, alt or chrom?

I use my Augmentation orbs to purchase items at vendors (chroms/6sockets) They reset every level so you can usually get around 5 chroms throughout the difficulties. Then the rest if i have a large amount I exchange them in the vendors for alts 4:1.

Some people may need them, crafters dont usually need them ALOT because you can spend 50 Alts(just an example) to craft a magic item, land 1 good mod then all you need is 1 Augmentation for the additional stat. Im not sure if people Eternal/Augment their magic items, if so they still only need a few.


Bascially end of long story is that they can be traded in 4 to 1 ALT at stores and if you want to use them to buy vendor items they'er useful too.

Thorough answer. Thanks a bunch!
