Greater Jeweller's Orb is a currency item in Path of Exile 2, used to expand a skill gem's support socket count to exactly 4. It enables advanced support scaling and is essential for mid-to-late game build optimization.
Since patch 0.2.0 Dawn of the Hunt, Jeweller's Orb mechanics have changed. You no longer need to upgrade socket count step-by-step. You can directly use Greater Jeweller's Orb to reach 4 sockets, and Perfect Jeweller's Orb to reach 5 sockets.

Path of Exile 2 Greater Jeweller's Orb FAQs
Can I use Greater Jeweller's Orb directly on a 2-socket gem?
Yes. Since patch 0.2.0 Dawn of the Hunt, socket upgrades are no longer sequential—you can apply Greater Jeweller's Orb directly to set a gem to 4 sockets.
What's the best timing to use Greater Jeweller's Orb?
Use it in mid-to-late game, once your build stabilizes and you've identified core skill gems worth investing in. It's ideal for expanding key damage or utility gems before endgame mapping.
Does Greater Jeweller's Orb work on gems with 4 or more sockets?
No. It only applies to skill gems with fewer than 4 support sockets. Attempting to use it on 4- or 5-socket gems will fail.
Where can I reliably farm Greater Jeweller's Orb?
There's no fixed drop location, but Tier 10+ maps and Grass Biome maps with the “Local Knowledge" Atlas passive offer increased drop rates. Bosses and Artisan's Strongboxes also have elevated chances.
Should I apply Greater Jeweller's Orb before or after Gemcutter's Prism?
Always apply socket upgrades before quality enhancements. Finalizing socket count first ensures you don't waste Gemcutter's Prisms on gems that may later be replaced or modified.
