The awakener orb method was patched way before the reddit post was made, pretty obvious that the guy stockpiled on awakener orbs before making the thread to make them skyrocket in price to cash out.

There's been multiple posts of multiple people trying the method and it doesnt work.

here's proof of it being fixed atleast 2 days ago:

https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/efhktw/i_cant_use_my_awakeners_orb_on_these_pairs_of/

edit: the post has just been removed from mods I assume, thanks for the good work.

edit2: the method still works, however ONLY for influenced mods, so not for temple mods/delve mods etc

edit3: https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/efuv51/awakener_orbs_working_as_intended_still_as_of/ This seems to be how it works now

edit4: VOC is gonna try and stream it live https://www.twitch.tv/boo_poe

Here are some clips of how its done:

The map stash tab desperately needs an update, or the Atlas needs some UI changes.

Posted: 26 Dec 2019 03:58 AM PST

Currently, your ways to know what maps you've completed the bonus objectives on in is rather pointlessly inhibited by the UI changes on the Atlas--specifically as a result of the watchstones mechanic.

When you gain Conqueror influence in a region, they steal your watchstones so you cannot modify the number of watchstones in that region, or retrieve them to place them elsewhere. This is pretty annoying in a lot of ways, but for the sake of pertinence: if all your stones have been taken hostage, there's no way for you to check the other map regions to find a specific unrevealed map for its bonuses if it's not already visible.

An alternative in this case would normally be to look at your map stash tab, because pay-to-win doesn't exist in this game. However, the current version of the map stash tab won't always reveal what maps exist within each tier until you actually store them there. Why there aren't blank slots available for the player to review is beyond me. If the design decision was to mitigate UI clutter, I think that ship has sailed when you now need to scroll multiple lines to review maps in certain tiers. What's even sillier is that there are maps I have found and decided to immediately run and complete both bonuses on that don't even have an empty slot in my map stash tab because I didn't arbitrarily put them in the tab and then immediately take them out. So when said maps eventually end up in offer in a mission or being sold by Zana I'm left scratching my head if I completed that a week ago or not.

A further issue is that the Awakening bonus is not available for review on the map stash tab, but I'm sure that'll be implemented eventually. And obviously the issue of this post doesn't really affect people who have a fully watchstoned Atlas, but for everybody else there's a lot of really pointless UI changes in play that make the new Atlas more confusing than it needs to be.

Do a search for it and you'll find one listed as 40c & three others for 3 exalts each. The going rate is around 5 exalts right now.

Of course, this could be due to wanting to sell the item quickly but you'll notice that if you try to buy from them, they will either not respond or try to scam you. (Account name "Mattonit" was created today & tried to put in a 4 link/2link whenever I tried to trade with him).

Be careful with your trades. Don't get scammed & be sure to check out a reputable economy website like poe.ninja whenever making larger purchases like this.

This is Why and How the Awakener's Orb Bug is Happening - Exact and Concise Information

Posted: 26 Dec 2019 10:45 AM PST

UPDATE

https://i.gyazo.com/db70173a00926f31ec60408f72bd52e0.png

I emailed this information to GGG earlier. Unfortunately there have been threads on this since, and it has caused a game altering shitstorm that may have irrevocably destroyed the economy.

Last night there was a reddit thread stating that you could abuse awakener's orbs to add a third prefix to a prefix locked item, namely a triple t1 phys weapon in this case. Reddit has since claimed that the OP was a liar and a market manipulator, and that the method does not work. It does work, and I will detail the method below.

You begin with a 2 affix item, whether it is prefix or suffix it does not matter. This is the item I used:

https://i.gyazo.com/ce1a5c4912fc3a7c8992e7e8e5fe8154.jpg

Next an influenced mod is added to the opposite side of the item (this is crucial or else it results in an error)

https://i.gyazo.com/bf5ab90d40a72157db602cd568730852.jpg

Then you take the influenced mod you want to add to the item, in this case:

https://i.gyazo.com/8d32e3370e7fdc1d12ca48cb93d44e78.jpg

Lock suffixes on the destination item:

https://i.gyazo.com/6f3d0e6fd77aed7737e49f8fc33f80fc.jpg

And use the Awakener's Orb to transfer the influenced mod to the locked suffix item:

https://i.gyazo.com/b12b24c9b3c3fd0a024bbc523b5822a6.jpg

Why this works: the Awakener's Orb combines influenced mods of two items, so when you have an influenced prefix on one item, and an influenced suffix with another item, you can use an Awakener's Orb and the destination item will have both of the aforementioned influenced mods with the rest of the mods rerolled. Now, when you lock prefixes/suffixes and don't have an influenced mod on the other side of the item, it will result in an error message. To override this, you follow the above method. My speculation is this works because you can currently exalt a prefix on a prefixes cannot be changed item, and so the influenced prefix is combining with the influenced suffix on the destination item, satisfying the conditions required for the Awakener's Orb and bypassing the metamod.

Considering the normal function of the Awakener's Orb, bypassing the metamod is not intended behavior.

Suddenly the rule 10 isn't applying anymore and neither the bot shows asking to explain the crafting process. There are people that just want to learn how to play with the new bases and currencies and cannot afford exalts of trials and errors. Why is this a thing?
