Disenchanting Rare Items into Path of Exile 2 Currency Regal Shards

If you find yourself overwhelmed by Rare items or want to convert excess gear into valuable currency, disenchanting is your friend.

How Disenchanting Works

Certain NPC vendors in Path of Exile 2 will disenchant Rare items in exchange for Regal Shards.

Common NPCs who provide this service include:

Una - located in Clearfell Encampment during Act 1
Zarka - found at The Ardura Caravan in Act 1
Servi - stationed in Ziggurat Encampment in Act 1

Value of Disenchanting

Most Rare items yield 1 Regal Shard when disenchanted.
Rare items with 6 modifiers yield 2 Regal Shards, so it's worth saving and disenchanting these higher-quality Rares.
This method helps clean up your inventory while also providing a steady stream of Regal Shards.

Combining Methods for Maximum Efficiency

Farm enemies to accumulate Rare items and some Regal Shards through drops.
Disenchant excess or less desirable Rare items to convert them into additional Regal Shards.
This dual approach will significantly speed up your shard collection compared to relying solely on drops.

Additional Tips for Farming Regal Shards

Path of Exile 2 trade for Regal Shards: If you have other valuable currency or items, trading with other players can be a quick way to get Regal Shards, especially in later stages of the game.
Use Loot Filters: Customize your loot filter to highlight or only show Rare items and Regal Shards to save time and reduce inventory clutter.
Optimize Inventory Management: Keep stash tabs organized to handle large amounts of Rare gear for cheap POE 2 Currency disenchanting.
