How to Get Ingenuity Utility Belt Unique in PoE 2

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 the Realmgate on the Atlas. Defeat the boss to have a chance at obtaining the belt. It's one of five possible unique drops, with an approximate drop rate of 1 in 5 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 difficulties increasing both the challenge and the drop chance. His attacks are similar to his Act 1 counterpart, offering some familiarity.

Alternatively, you can purchase the belt on 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' in PoE 2

"An Audience With the King" can be acquired in two ways:

• Trade Site: Expect to pay around 4-7 Divine Orbs.
• Ritual Maps: This item has a low chance of appearing as a Ritual favor. These favors are costly (2700-3900 Tribute). If you can't afford it immediately, defer it to a later Ritual for a reduced cost (it should reappear within 1-4 Ritual maps).

If you obtain "An Audience With the King" but aren't ready for the fight, consider selling it or seeking a carry service.

Can You Get The Utility Belt Using Orb of Chance in PoE 2

No. The Ingenuity Utility Belt is not obtainable through regular means, including using Orbs of Chance on items like Astramentis or Polcirkeln. It's exclusively dropped by the King in the Mists or acquired through trading.
