The Ingenuity Utility Belt is a coveted unique item in Path of Exile 2, capable of transforming various builds. However, acquiring it isn't easy; you'll need to be deep into the endgame, wielding a build strong enough to conquer pinnacle bosses. Alternatively, a hefty supply of Divine Orbs can expedite the process, but for those seeking a less expensive route, read on.
How to Get Ingenuity Utility Belt Unique in PoE 2
The Ingenuity Utility Belt drops exclusively from the King in the Mists, the endgame Ritual Boss encountered using the "An Audience With the King" item at the Atlas Realmgate. Defeat the waves of enemies to reach the final boss fight. Victory might reward you with the Ingenuity Utility Belt, but it's not guaranteed.
The King in the Mists has a unique drop pool, with Ingenuity being one of five possibilities:
- The Burden of Shadows Chiming Staff
Beetlebite
From Nothing
Pragmatism- Ingenuity
While not guaranteed, the drop rate is reasonable, approximately one in five attempts. The King's difficulty scales; higher tiers offer increased drop chances but pose a significantly greater challenge. His attacks are similar to the Act 1 King in the Mists, providing a helpful benchmark for preparation.
Alternatively, you can purchase the Ingenuity Utility Belt from the PoE 2 trade site for roughly 15-50 Divine Orbs, depending on its modifiers. This is considerably more expensive but ensures a high-roll item.
The Ingenuity Utility Belt's drop is not guaranteed, but it's not an exceptionally rare occurrence.
How to Get 'An Audience With the King' in PoE 2
"An Audience with the King" is obtainable through two methods:
- Trade Site/Currency Exchange: Expect to pay around 4-7
Divine Orbs. - Ritual Maps: This item has a low chance of appearing as a Ritual favor. These favors are costly (2700-3900 Tribute), often making immediate purchase impossible. You can defer the item using the "Defer" option in the "Favours" menu. This will reduce its cost in a future Ritual, typically appearing within 1-4 subsequent maps, provided all other conditions are met. Defer until you can afford it.
If you obtain "An Audience with the King" but aren't ready, consider seeking a carry for 1-2 Divines, earning Ritual points and rewards, or simply selling the item.
Can You Get The Utility Belt Using Orb of Chance in PoE 2
No. The Ingenuity Utility Belt isn't part of the regular loot pool; it cannot be obtained from standard monster kills or by using 
Orb of Chance on items like 
Astramentis/
Polcirkeln. It's exclusive to the endgame King in the Mists and can only be acquired through defeating him or trading.
