Unlike Exalted Orbs in previous leagues, Divine Orbs are now the go-to currency for trading high-value items, making price checking a different experience. Here&rsquo;s how you can accurately assess the value of rare gear in a Divine-based economy.</h1>

Since Divine Orbs are used to reroll the values of explicit modifiers on items, their demand remains consistently high. This shift means players must adapt their pricing strategies accordingly.

<p style="font-size: var(--ds-md-font-size); line-height: var(--ds-md-line-height); margin: 0px 0px 0px !important 0px;">Check Trade Websites
The most reliable method is using POE 2 trade platforms like the official trade site or community-driven tools. Filter for similar rare gear by selecting comparable modifiers, item levels, and base types. Look for listings priced in Divine Orbs to gauge the market value.

<p style="font-size: var(--ds-md-font-size); line-height: var(--ds-md-line-height); margin: 0px 0px 0px !important 0px;">Analyze Modifier Tiers
Rare gear value depends heavily on modifier tiers. High-tier life, resistance, and damage modifiers significantly increase an item&rsquo;s worth. Use in-game tools or third-party apps to identify modifier tiers and compare them to listed items.

Items that fit popular POE 2 builds will always be in higher demand. Stay updated on the current meta to understand which affixes are most valuable. For example, if spellcasters dominate the league, gear with +spell levels or spell damage will be pricier.

Tools like POE Overlay or Awakened POE Trade can help estimate an item&rsquo;s value by scanning its modifiers and comparing them to live trade data. These tools save time and reduce pricing errors.

The POE 2 currency market fluctuates based on league progress. Early league, Divine Orbs are scarce, making high-end rares more expensive. Later, as more players farm Divines, prices may stabilize or drop. Adjust your pricing accordingly.
