Orbs of Chance are primarily applied to particular base item types in the hopes of obtaining a particular unique item, a process referred to as chancing. However, the resulting item is most commonly a magic item and uncommonly a rare item. Magic and rare items modifiers can be removed Orb of Scouring and so the chancing can continue with a single base item. Because of this, players should carefully weigh the cost of using up Orbs of Chance to obtain a specific unique against the cost of simply trading for that unique.

The chance of creating a unique item is different for every unique and depends on the rarity of that specific unique. The base item's item levle does not limit the type of unique items that can be obtained.

An Orb of Chance cannot create:

• Unique items that are only available through vendor recipes
• Event prizes
• Unique items that exclusively drop from certain bosses or in certain areas
• Upgraded versions of poe2 items, like blessed items, fated items or items only available through corruption
