Path of Exile 2 Utility Belt Guide

Author: Leo Jan 27,2025

This guide details how to obtain the Ingenuity Utility Belt, a unique and powerful belt in Path of Exile 2. This item is not easily acquired and requires significant endgame progression.

How to Obtain the Ingenuity Utility Belt

The Ingenuity Utility Belt is a unique drop from the King in the Mists, a challenging endgame Ritual Boss. To access this boss, you need the "An Audience With the King" item, used at the Realmgate on the Atlas. Defeating the King in the Mists offers a chance to obtain the belt, but it's not guaranteed. The drop rate is approximately one in five successful encounters. The King in the Mists has multiple difficulty tiers; higher difficulties increase the drop chance but also significantly increase the boss's power.

Other possible unique drops from the King in the Mists include:

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

Alternatively, you can purchase the Ingenuity Utility Belt from the PoE 2 trade site. The price varies but generally ranges from 15-50 Divine Orbs, depending on the item's specific attributes. This is a significantly more expensive option.

Obtaining "An Audience With the King"

This item can be acquired in two ways:

  • Trade Site: Purchase it for approximately 4-7 Divine Orbs.
  • Ritual Maps: It has a low chance of dropping as a Ritual favor. These favors are expensive (2700-3900 Tribute). If you cannot afford it immediately, you can defer it to a later Ritual map at a reduced cost. It should reappear within 1-4 Ritual maps.

If you obtain "An Audience With the King" but are not ready to fight the boss, you can sell it or seek a carry service.

Using Orb of Chance

Orb of Chance No, the Ingenuity Utility Belt cannot be obtained using Orbs of Chance. It's an exclusive boss drop and cannot be acquired through other means besides defeating the King in the Mists or trading.
