PoE Ritual Base Type Items

Ritual Base Types items are craftable items that have different implicit modifiers than Path of Exile’s regular base types. Specifically, they have a strong upside combined with an accompanying downside. If you can create a build that mitigates this drawback, then you can take advantage of the power of these items and craft them into something amazing.

Obtain Ritual statistics

Completing ritual altars will obtain ritual base types.

  • In total, 29,547,874 Ritual Base Types were offered as rewards (an average of 1 every 7.04 areas).

Ritual Base Types Build Example

1. Nexus Gloves

Nexus Gloves

Nexus Gloves reduce your maximum mana, but have a chance of immediately refunding the mana spent to use a skill. If you can work around this restriction to your mana pool, you can periodically use skills for essentially no mana cost.

2. Penitent Mask

Penitent Mask

Penitent Mask applies the Crushed debuff to you, removing your physical damage protection. However, its upside is that it increases the effect of fortify on you by quite a lot, reducing the damage you take from hits. There are many situations where this is a huge win, such as if you already have no armour or endurance charges.

3. Stormrider Boots

Stormrider Boots

Stormrider Boots reduce your accuracy rating, but provide a huge added lightning damage boost to your attacks, based on your accuracy rating. If you have other sources of accuracy to rely on, this is potentially a huge increase to the lighting damage you deal.

Buy PoE Currency Cheap

Purchase a Ritual Base with Tribute

In Path of Exile, you cannot directly purchase Ritual Bases with Tribute. Tribute is the currency you earn during Ritual encounters to purchase various rewards from the Ritual reward altar.

However, Ritual Bases can be one of the rewards offered by the altar. Here's what you need to do:

  1. Encounter a Ritual Altar: These have a baseline chance of spawning in any non-unique map area.

  2. Activate the Altar: This initiates the Ritual encounter. You'll need to defeat enemies within the enclosed circle to gather Tribute.

  3. Look for Ritual Bases at the Reward Altar: Once you've defeated enough enemies, a reward altar will appear. This altar offers various purchasable items depending on the amount of Tribute you have. Look for icons that represent Ritual Bases among the offered rewards.

Here are some additional points to consider:

  • There are 27 different Ritual Base Types in the game. The challenge "Obtain Ritual Base Types" requires you to exchange Tribute for them.
  • The specific Ritual Bases offered at the reward altar will vary depending on the encounter.

If you're specifically looking to acquire a certain Ritual Base, you might be better off trying to trade with other players or searching for them on the official trade website.
