Path of Exile 2 Lesser Jeweller's Orb FAQs
What does Lesser Jeweller's Orb do?
It sets a skill gem's support socket count to exactly 3, allowing for one additional support gem. This provides a significant early game power spike for active skills.
Where can I find the guaranteed drop location for the Lesser Jeweller's Orb?
You can find a guaranteed one-time drop by interacting with the Basket near the Orok Campfire waypoint in the Sandswept Marsh area of Act 3.
When should I use it during the campaign?
It is best used between Acts 2 and 4 to quickly upgrade your core damage or utility skills from 2 sockets to 3 sockets, helping with early combat efficiency before you gain access to the Greater Jeweller's Orb.
Can I use Lesser Jeweller's Orb on gems with 3 or more support sockets?
No. It only works on skill gems that have fewer than 3 support sockets (i.e., 1- or 2-socket gems). Attempting to use it on a 3-socket gem or higher will fail.
Is the Orok Campfire drop repeatable?
No. The drop from the Orok Campfire basket is a one-time reward per character per difficulty, emphasizing its role in early progression bootstrapping.
When should I upgrade from Lesser (3 sockets) to the next tier?
You should plan to upgrade your main skill gems from 3 sockets (Lesser) to 4 sockets (Greater) once you reach the mid-to-late game (typically Tier 10+ maps), where the Greater Jeweller's Orb begins to drop more frequently.
Should I use it before Gemcutter's Prism?
Yes. Always finalize the socket count first. Apply the Lesser Jeweller's Orb to set 3 sockets, and then use the Gemcutter's Prism to improve the gem's quality.
