PoE2: Ingenuity Utility Belt Unveiled

Feb 11,2025 Author: Andrew

This guide details how to obtain the Ingenuity Utility Belt, a unique and powerful belt in Path of Exile 2. This item is only obtainable through specific endgame activities.

How to Get the Ingenuity Utility Belt

The Ingenuity Utility Belt is a unique drop from the King in the Mists, a ritual boss encountered via the "An Audience With the King" item. This item is 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 estimated at roughly one in five attempts. The King's other possible unique 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, increasing the drop chance at higher tiers. The fight is challenging, with the boss capable of one-shotting many builds. His attacks are similar to his Act 1 counterpart, providing some familiarity.

Alternatively, purchasing the belt from the PoE 2 trade site is a more reliable, albeit expensive, option. Prices typically range from 15-50 Divine Orbs, depending on the item's rolls.

How to Get 'An Audience With the King'

This item can be acquired in two ways:

  • Trade Site: The cost is generally 4-7 Divine Orbs.
  • Ritual Maps: It has a low chance of appearing as a Ritual favor. These favors are expensive (2700-3900 Tribute). If unaffordable, the "Defer" option allows for its reappearance at a reduced cost in future Rituals (typically within 1-4 maps).

Players obtaining "An Audience With the King" but unprepared for the boss fight can seek carries for a fee (1-2 Divines), earning Ritual points and rewards.

Can Orb of Chance Obtain the Ingenuity Utility Belt?

No. The Ingenuity Utility Belt is not in the regular loot pool and cannot be obtained through regular monster kills or using Orb of Chance on items like Astramentis/Polcirkeln. Trading remains the only alternative to obtaining it outside of defeating the King in the Mists.
