PoE 2 Fragments Exchange Ratio Chart – December 27, 2024 (Standard League)

Weekly Market Observations & Trends

Breach Splinter's Value Doubles:

Breach Splinter has seen a significant increase from 0.13 to 0.28 Exalted Orbs (+115.4%), suggesting a high demand for Breaches or a speculative investment in these items.

Breachstone Halves in Value:

The price of a Breachstone has dropped from 2 to 1 Divine Orb (-50%). This could be due to an increase in supply or a shift in player interest to other endgame content.

Simulacrum and Its Splinters:

The Simulacrum Splinter has increased from 0.5 to 0.8 Exalted Orbs (+60%), indicating a growing interest in Simulacrum content. However, the full Simulacrum has dropped from 5 to 4 Divine Orbs (-20%), possibly reflecting a market correction after an earlier spike.

Special Fates and Crisis Fragments:

Most Fates and Crisis Fragments have remained stable, with An Audience with the King dropping from 7 to 5 Divine Orbs (-28.6%). This might suggest a normalization after a period of high demand or an increase in availability.

Transition to Divine Orbs:

As previously mentioned, the fragment market has largely shifted to Divine Orbs as the primary currency for high-value exchanges. This week's changes further emphasise this trend, with the majority of items now tied to Divine Orbs rather than Exalted.

Community Insights

Fragment Market Speculation: Discussions about the reasons behind the Breach Splinter's rise and Breachstone's fall are rampant, with players speculating on upcoming content or changes that might affect these items' demand.

Endgame Content Focus: There's been a noticeable shift towards discussing strategies for Simulacrum and other endgame encounters, potentially driving up the value of related fragments.

Recommendations for Traders

Speculate on Breach Splinters:

With the significant rise in Breach Splinter's value, this might be the time to invest if you believe the trend will continue or sell if you think it's a bubble.

Be careful with high value fragments:

The drop in Breachstone and Simulacrum prices could be a buying opportunity if you believe in a rebound, or a warning sign to sell before further depreciation.

Watch the market shift:

Continue to monitor how the market adjusts to using Divine Orbs as the primary currency for fragment trading. This could lead to new arbitrage opportunities.

Diversify your portfolio:

With some items showing volatility, diversifying your investments between different types of fragments could reduce risk.
