How to Farm Regal Shards in Path of Exile 2
The most important items in Path of Exile 2 can be obtained by grinding enemies, and Regal Shards are no exception, although they have a few nuances. To farm Regal Shards in Path of Exile 2, players need to either grind strong enemies or disenchant gear.
The first option is the primary one, since Regal Shards in Path of Exile 2 drop from any enemies. Of course, the drop rate of the currency is extremely low. As such, you will have to rely on luck most of the time. However, it seems that some enemies, such as elites and bosses, offer a higher Regal Shard drop rate. Although bosses still rarely drop this currency, you will be able to farm other resources along the way, including Rare items.
We recommend that you travel to previous locations, where enemies have a significantly lower level than you. A good option is Trial of the Sekhemas, since it is easier to find elite enemies in it.
An alternative to this is disenchanting items to get Regal Shards in Path of Exile 2. To do this, players need to find a suitable person and give them Rare gear. Here is a list of characters who can help you with this:
- Una - Can be found in Clearfell Encampment during Act 1
- Zarka - Can be found in The Ardura Caravan during Act 1
- Servi - Can be found in Ziggurat Encampment during Act 1
It is worth noting that most Rare items will give you 1 Regal Shard in Path of Exile 2, but if you decide to disenchant an item with 6 modifiers, you will get 2 Shards. Thus, you will want to combine both methods to farm not only Regal Shards but also Rare items from enemies.
