"Cannot roll Attack Modifiers" is a suffix(of Spellcraft). It costs a Divine Orb. Using the Cannot roll Attack Modifiers meta-crafting mod to combine multiple other meta-crafting mods allows for even more control of the item. This way the player can often limit the pool of possible mods so that outcome of the craft is almost guaranteed.

Cannot roll Attack Mods PoE

"Cannot roll Attack mods" can be used on a weapon so that you can narrow down the possible affixes your exalt hits. It would remove the ability to roll certain attack affixes. Then you remove the crafted mod when you have a nice 5 stat item and put the 6th stat on with either the Crafting Bench or another Exalted Orb.

It prevents attack mods from being rolled when you reroll the item with Orb of Alteration or Chaos Orb or add new mods with augmentation, Regal Orb or Exalted Orb. However, it will not protect mods from Orb of Scouring.

Note that fossils and essences will entirely re-roll the item, ignoring your "cannot roll attack mods".

Cannot roll Attack Mods


In Path of Exile, "Cannot Roll Attack Mods" is a crafting modifier that serves as a powerful tool for crafting gear specifically for spellcasters or non-attack builds.
It functions as a protective shield, preventing attack-related modifiers from being added to an item through most crafting methods. Here's a detailed breakdown of how it works:

What it does:

  • Blocks Attack Modifiers: Once applied to an item, this modifier completely blocks any new attack-related modifiers from being added through crafting. This includes:

    • Physical Damage modifiers
    • Attack Speed modifiers
    • Critical Strike Chance for Attacks modifiers
    • Attack-specific modifiers like "Adds X to Y Physical Damage to Attacks" or "X% chance to deal Double Damage with Attacks"
  • Doesn't Affect Existing Mods: It won't remove any existing attack modifiers that are already present on the item. However, it will prevent those modifiers from being changed or removed by most crafting methods.

How to Use It Effectively:

  • Applying the Mod: The "Cannot Roll Attack Mods" modifier can be obtained through various methods, including:

    • Crafting Bench (unlocked through crafting recipes or Jun missions)
    • Harvest Crafting (using specific crafts)
    • Fossil Crafting (using certain fossils)
  • Crafting with Protection: Once applied, you can freely use most crafting methods without fear of adding unwanted attack modifiers. This includes:

    • Chaos Orbs
    • Exalted Orbs
    • Essences
    • Certain bench crafting options
  • Strategic Crafting: This modifier opens up opportunities for targeted crafting:

    • Increasing chances of rolling desired caster-specific modifiers like spell damage, cast speed, or mana-related mods.
    • Protecting valuable caster prefixes while working on suffixes, or vice versa.

Key Considerations:

  • Metamod: Like "Prefixes Cannot Be Changed," it's a metamod, meaning it requires an existing modifier on the item to be applied.
  • Suffix Occupation: It consumes a suffix slot, so keep this in mind when planning your crafting strategy.

Overall, "Cannot Roll Attack Mods" is an invaluable tool for crafting powerful caster gear in Path of Exile. By understanding its mechanics and applications, you can effectively control the crafting process and create items that perfectly align with your spellcasting or non-attack builds.
