There are some subtle differences between the crafting system of Path of Exile 2 and that of the first game, and anointing an item has undergone a noticeable change.
If you’ve spent a fair few hours in the early access, you must have noticed that there are lots of currency types, and all of them have their key functions. Distilled Emotions are a completely new type, at least to my knowledge, and they can be used to anoint amulets to make them more powerful with the help of passive skills.
Path of Exile 2 Anoint mechanism explained
Distilled Emotions might be new, but the process of anointing an amulet isn’t new. It’s present in Path of Exile, but the currency has undergone a change. In the older title, you can anoint an amulet with the help of oils.
First, go to your skill tree and decide on the passive skill. Doing so will tell you the exact Distilled Emotions that you will need for the skill. At launch, there are 10 available options to pick from. Once you know the required Distilled Emotions, right-click on it to open the Instilling Window. Once done, you’ll be able to place the skill in your amulet.
Do note that the placement order will matter when installing Distilled Emotions. Here are all the available options that are currently in the early access.
- Distilled Despair
- Distilled Disgust
- Distilled Envy
- Distilled Fear
- Distilled Greed
- Distilled Ire
- Distilled Suffering
- Distilled Paranoia
- Distilled Isolation
- Distilled Guilt
As GGG adds new content, new Distilled Emotions are likely going to be added as well, which will help you to have anoints with new skills. The core process will remain the same.
