Best Way To Spend Scroll of Wisdom in Path of Exile 2

If you’re hoarding every Scroll of Wisdom you find in Path of Exile 2 but can’t figure out the best way to spend them, you’ve come to the right place!

Early in Path of Exile 2, the only real use for Scrolls of Wisdom is to consume them to identify items. However, this stops mattering as soon as you get access to The Hooded One’s services during Act 1 of the game. That makes the Scrolls of Wisdom essentially worthless really quickly…

Thankfully, they still have other uses. Read on and we’ll tell you the best way to spend your Scrolls of Wisdom!

The best way to spend every Scroll of Wisdom you get in Path of Exile 2 is to make use of the Currency Exchange feature. As we mentioned before, they stop being useful for identifying items once you get access to The Hooded One’s services in Act 1. They even do it for free!

The Currency Exchange becomes available once you start Act 1 in Cruel Difficulty. This is essentially the game’s New Game Plus and becomes available once you clear all of the main campaign content in Act 1 to 3 the first time. It takes a while to unlock, but it’s well worth it!

All of the NPCs that sell randomized gear will then have Currency Exchange as an option. This includes Finn in Clearfell and Alva at the Ziggurat Encampment, for example.

This lets you trade in your Scrolls of Wisdom for other useful resources. The Market Ratio rates shift quite often, so it’s not exactly reliable… but it’s still a good way to get rid of Scrolls of Wisdom you don’t need and get something more useful in return. A good item to shoot for are Orbs of Augmentation, as they are decently useful and have a decent trade rate with Scrolls of Wisdom as of this writing.

Ultimately, the best way to spend every Scroll of Wisdom you get in Path of Exile 2 is by trading them away. Just consider them an extra type of currency and don’t use them up for item identification. Nonetheless, at least now you have a reason to pick them up whenever you find them as loot!
