Anointing an amulet inPath of Exile 2allows players to instill a single Notable skill from the passive skill tree inside the Amulet. This allows players to obtain useful passives from anywhere in the skill tree without having to worry about pathing towards them.
When that Amulet is equipped in the appropriate gear slot, the instilled Notable passive’s effect is activated. The process to anoint an amulet is fairly straightforward but can be quite expensive, depending on the skill. Here’s the breakdown.
How to Anoint an Amulet in PoE 2
InPath of Exile 2, players can anoint an amulet with a Notable passive skill byusing three Distilled Emotionscorresponding to the passive skill in question through the instilling window. Here is the step-by-step process:
Once anointed, an amulet cannot be anointed again with a different skill.
Since anointing can be quite expensive, players should only anoint an amulet they’re sure is going to be useful to them for a good while in the endgame. Anointing any random amulet just for the sake of it is a huge waste.
Anointing a Corrupted Amulet in PoE 2
If an amulet has thecorrupted tag inPoE 2, players cannot anoint it with any skill. Trying to do so will cause the game to ask the player for the Tainted Oil item. Tainted Oil was an item inPoE 1, which allowed players to anoint a corrupted amulet. However, this item does not exist inPoE 2currently. This text message is a remnant fromPoE 1code.
How to Get Distilled Emotions in PoE 2
Specific Distilled Emotions are needed to anoint various Notables inPoE 2. There are three ways to get these items.
Delirium Map Nodes
Defeating Delirium monsters inDelirium map nodeswill reward players with 2-5 Distilled Emotions per run, depending on the clear rate. Some Distilled Emotions are rarer than others, which means you won’t get even drop rates.
Defeating Delirium monsters inside Delirium Fog Instilled Waystones will not drop Distilled Emotions. They will drop Simulacrum Splinters instead.
Currency Exchange
The most reliable way to obtain Distilled Emotions quickly is via thein-game Currency Exchange. Talk to Alva in your hideout and scroll down to the exact Distilled Emotion you need. These are usually sold for Exalted Orbs or Divine Orbs, depending on the rarity.
Trade Site
Sometimes players can find certain Distilled Emotions for sale on the trade site for cheaper than on the Currency Exchange. However, this is a rare occurrence and not something to rely on.
