PoE Essence Recipes

Essences are a diverse and complex group of currency items in Path of Exile, offering a variety of ways to influence and modify your equipment. Here's a comprehensive breakdown of essences:

What are Essences?

• Essences are consumable items dropped by monsters, obtained primarily from Essence Monoliths.
• They can be used to upgrade normal items to rare or reforge rare items, guaranteeing one specific modifier based on the essence type.

Types of Essences:

• Essences are categorized into tiers (1-7) and affinities (e.g., fire, cold, lightning, chaos).
• Each tier and affinity has multiple essence types with unique effects.
• Some essences offer offensive or defensive benefits, while others add utility or specific mechanics.

Using Essences:

• Right-click the essence on a normal item to upgrade it to rare with the guaranteed modifier.
• Right-click the essence on a rare item to reforge it, replacing existing modifiers with a new one based on the essence.
• Be aware that reforging can have unpredictable results, potentially removing desirable mods.

Essence Monoliths:

• These are special encounters found in maps containing multiple monsters trapped in crystallized forms.
• Clicking on a crystal releases the monster, granting a chance to drop essences related to its type.
• The more crystals you activate, the higher the chance of higher-tier essences dropping.

Advanced Techniques:

• Combining essences: Certain essences can be combined in your inventory to create a new, more powerful essence with unique effects.
• Essence of Delirium: This special essence can be used on any item to create a "Delirium Orbed" item, which grants access to the Delirium league content.

Remember:

• Experimenting with essences can be rewarding, offering a chance to create powerful and unique items.
• Understand the risks of reforging before applying essences to valuable rare items.
• Utilize resources like the wiki and trade websites to learn about specific essence effects and values.

I hope this information provides a solid foundation for understanding and using essences in Path of Exile.

An essence is part of a complex group of currency items used for crafting equipment. All essences can be used to upgrade a piece of normal rarity equipment to rare and apply one guaranteed affix. Some essences can also be used to reforge the affixes of rare equipment.

Essence Vendor Recipes

Upgrading essences to the next essence level is possible through a vendor recipe:

As the example is shown above, sell 3 Wailing Essence of Contempt to any vendor in exchange for a Screaming Essence of Contempt.

Essence level and type

The name of an essence consists of 3 parts: the level of the essence as a prefix, the word ‘Essence’, and the type of the essence as a suffix. For example, Wailing Essence of Contempt has the prefix ‘Wailing’ and the suffix ‘of Contempt’. Therefore, level is ‘Wailing’ and type is ‘of Contempt’.

There are seven essence levels distinguished by a prefix word: Whispering(level 1), Muttering(level 2), Weeping(level 3), Wailing(level 4), Screaming(level 5), Shrieking(level 6), and Deafening(level 7).

The type of essence can be recognized by the suffix in the name. There are 25 different types of essences.
