Path of Exile 2 Utility Belt: Crafting Ingenuity

This guide details how to obtain the Ingenuity Utility Belt, a unique and powerful belt in Path of Exile 2. Acquiring it requires significant endgame progression and resources.

How to Get the Ingenuity Utility Belt

The Ingenuity Utility Belt is a unique drop from the King in the Mists, a challenging endgame Ritual Boss. To fight him, you'll need "An Audience With the King" item, used at a Realmgate on the Atlas.

The King in the Mists has a unique drop table, with Ingenuity being one of five possible uniques. While not guaranteed, the drop rate is approximately one in five attempts. The other possible drops are:

1. The Burden of Shadows Chiming Staff
2. Beetlebite
3. From Nothing
4. Pragmatism
5. Ingenuity

The King in the Mists' difficulty scales with higher tiers, increasing both the challenge and the drop chance. His attacks are similar to the Act 1 King in the Mists, providing a point of reference.

Alternatively, you can purchase the Ingenuity Utility Belt from the PoE 2 trade site for approximately 15-50 Divine Orbs, depending on its stats. This is significantly more expensive but guarantees acquisition.

How to Get 'An Audience With the King'

This item can be obtained through:

• Trading: It typically costs 4-7 Divine Orbs on the trade site.
• Ritual Maps: It has a low chance of appearing as a Ritual favor. These favors are expensive (2700-3900 Tribute). If unaffordable, you can defer the favor to a later Ritual at a reduced cost. It should reappear within 1-4 Ritual maps.

If you obtain "An Audience With the King" but aren't prepared for the fight, you can seek carries from other players.

Can You Get the Ingenuity Utility Belt Using Orb of Chance?

No. The Ingenuity Utility Belt is not part of the regular loot pool and cannot be obtained through Orb of Chance. It's an exclusive drop from the King in the Mists.
