Path of Exile 2 Armourer's Scrap FAQs
Does Armourer's Scrap improve all types of defensive stats?
Yes. Armourer's Scrap increases the quality of the base item, which in turn boosts the item's base defensive stats. The specific stats improved (Armour, Evasion, or Energy Shield) depend on the item's base type. Hybrid bases (e.g., Armour/Evasion) benefit from both.
What types of armour benefit most from Armourer's Scrap?
Body armour and shields, particularly those with high base Armour, Evasion, or Energy Shield stats, gain the most raw defensive value from quality upgrades.
Should I use Armourer's Scrap early or save it for endgame gear?
Use it strategically. While applying Scraps early can provide useful survivability spikes, they are most effective when applied to high-base-value endgame gear. For maximum efficiency, always apply quality when the item is Normal rarity.
Does armour rarity affect how much quality I gain?
Yes. This is crucial for efficiency: Normal armour gains 5% quality per Scrap, Magic gains 2%, and Rare or Unique armour gains only 1% per Scrap. This means it only costs 4 Scraps to 20% a Normal item, but 20 Scraps for a Rare/Unique item.
What is the most efficient way to farm Armourer's Scrap in PoE2?
The most efficient method is using the Salvage Bench. Salvage armour pieces that have existing quality modifiers (found as drops or bought from vendors) to consistently yield Armourer's Scraps. High-level zone farming also increases drop frequency.
