It's a matter of utility and demand. Chaos are more directly useful than Vaal Orbs, will be used in greater quantity, and have the same rarity.

That makes the chaos a price ceiling for the vaal orb (again, assuming there isn't a giant backlog like there is right now on the legacy leagues)

It's really not that complicated.

False. It's a matter of SUPPLY and demand. Assuming chaos and vaal orbs have the same drop rate, the majority of chaos floating in the economy is from the chaos recipe.

Personally i make ~10 chaos from the recipe for every chaos orb i drop

So unless there is an equivalent recipe for vaal orb, chaos orbs supply will far exceed vaal orbs.

Demand is more difficult to predict. Remember chaos orbs can only be used to roll rare items and maps, while vaal orbs can be used to roll pretty much everything. I can't wait to get enough vaal orbs to roll all my shit uniques and some mid tier rares, but i'm not keen to roll anything with my chaos orbs except maps, but that's just me.

for you PERSONALLY you might get 10x chaos per 1 you find, but I can tell you from experience that's not true overall.

by far the most chaos orbs are generated by them simply dropping.

and it remains that chaos are also more useful and have more utility. vaal orbs will almost certainly stabalize below a chaos orb, in all leagues, given time.

eg lets say you want to corrupt your maps. you only need ONE per map, period end.

if you want to CHAOS your map? lol.

Does it really matter if the orbs are 'worth' anything? They are fun to use. Who cares? Everyone whines that Exalted/Eternal orbs are too rare and now people are whining that Vaal orbs are too common and not valuable enough?

If I read this forum for as long and as consistently as CliveHowlitzer, I would be bitter too. This is a negative place. There are a lot of artistic nerds here.

the thread is about an observation.

what's even more surprising is that you are such a ridiculously bitter person that you interpret even random observations as negative criticism.

if i pointed out that the sky is blue in PoE, you would probably accuse me of crying about how the sky is blue and that it's all an attempt of mine to secretly get them to change the color.

grow up.
