Let’s dive right into it. The reforging bench is a handy tool in Path of Exile 2. It can feel a bit tricky at first, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll see it’s pretty straightforward.
- First off, you need three identical items. That means they must have the same name and rarity. So, if you have three white items, they all need to be white. Same goes for blue or yellow items.
- I remember my first time trying this. I had a bunch of random gear lying around. I thought, “Why not give it a shot?” I grabbed three crumbling hammers, all white, and tossed them in.
- Now, here’s a little nugget of wisdom: the core name of the item matters more than any special effects it might have. If they’re all crumbling hammers, you’re good to go! Just make sure they’re all the same base name and rarity.
- Once you’ve got your three items ready, it’s time to reforge! I’ve done this about fifteen times now. Each time I used three blues, I ended up with another blue item. Three yellows? You guessed it—another yellow.
- I tried using corrupted items, thinking I’d score something epic. Spoiler alert: I didn’t. Corrupted items can’t be modified, so don’t waste your time there.
Why Use the Reforging Bench?
So why bother with this? Well, you can take those vendor trash items that you’d usually sell or scrap and give them a new life! It’s like finding treasure in your old junk drawer. You might roll some cool sub-stats and get lucky!
In summary, remember: three items with the same core name and rarity are key to making this work. It’s a fun way to experiment with gear that might otherwise go unused. Keep exploring this system; who knows what hidden gems you might find!
