Path of Exile 2: How to Get Ingenuity Utility Belt

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, requiring significant endgame progression and a strong build capable of defeating pinnacle bosses.

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 access this boss, you need the "An Audience With the King" item, used on the Realmgate in 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. Other possible unique drops from this boss include:

• The Burden of Shadows Chiming Staff
• Beetlebite
• From Nothing
• Pragmatism
• Ingenuity

The King in the Mists' difficulty scales, with higher tiers offering increased drop chances but also significantly increased challenge. His attacks are similar to the Act 1 King in the Mists, providing a benchmark for preparation.

Alternatively, the belt can be purchased on the official PoE 2 trade site for approximately 15-50 Divine Orbs, depending on its stats. This is a more reliable but considerably more expensive method.

How to Get "An Audience With the King"

This item can be acquired in two ways:

• Trade Site/Currency Exchange: Expect to pay around 4-7 Divine Orbs .
• Ritual Maps: It has a low chance of dropping as a Ritual favor. These favors are costly (2700-3900 Tribute), often making immediate purchase infeasible. The "Defer" option allows you to postpone the purchase to a future Ritual at a reduced cost (typically appearing within 1-4 Ritual maps).

Players obtaining "An Audience With the King" but unprepared for the boss fight can seek carries from other players, often for a fee of 1-2 Divine Orbs.

Can Orb of Chance Obtain the Ingenuity Utility Belt?

No. The Ingenuity Utility Belt is not part of the regular loot pool and cannot be obtained through Orb of Chance or similar methods like using it on Astramentis or Polcirkeln . It's exclusively dropped by the King in the Mists endgame variant or acquired through trading.
