Maligaro's Virtuosity Fine Bracers are Unique Gloves in Path of Exile 2 that can be incredibly potent with the right build. It provides players with an easy way to deal with all of their Critical Damage bonus needs using a single slot and adds some nice bonuses on top of that.
Naturally, as a high-value Unique, Maligaro's Virtuosity is not easy to obtain, requiring players to be either extremely lucky or moderately rich to afford it.
Path of Exile 2: How to Respec Ascendancy
Path of Exile 2 allows players to respec their character's Ascendancy at any point in the game. Here is how it works.
How to Get Maligaro's Virtuosity in PoE 2
There are three main ways of obtaining a Maligaro's Virtuosity in Path of Exile 2.
- Random drops from enemies.
- Using an Orb of Chance.
- Trading with other players.
Unlike PoE 1, Maligaro's Virtuosity is not a league-specific item in PoE 2.
Random Drop
Maligaro's Virtuosity is a part of the global drop pool and starts dropping from Level 79+ enemies in PoE 2. This means players will only be able to obtain this item naturally in the late endgame when running Tier 15 Waystone maps in the Atlas.
There is no way to target farm Maligaro's Virtuosity in the game, but players can increase their chance of obtaining this item by stacking "Increased Rarity of Items" and "Increased Quantity of Items" on their gear and Precursor Tablets.
Orb of Chance
Using an Orb of Chance on Normal Fine Bracers has a chance of turning into a Maligaro's Virtuosity. However, this is extremely unlikely to happen due to the low success rate of chance orbs.
Trade With Players
The fastest and most reliable way to obtain a Maligaro's Virtuosity is by buying it from other players through the official PoE 2 trade site. Depending on the meta, this item has a price of roughly 1-5 Divine Orbs.
How Do Maligaro's Virtuosity Gloves Work in PoE 2
The Maligaro's Virtuosity Fine Bracers Unique comes with the following modifiers:
|
Maligaro's Virtuosity |
|---|
|
(60–80)% increased Evasion Rating (20–30)% increased Critical Hit Chance 5% increased Attack Speed +(10–20) to Dexterity Your Critical Damage Bonus is 300% |
While the rest of the modifiers are fairly self-explanatory, players may be confused about how "Your Critical Damage Bonus is 300%" is implemented. Is this a 300% multiplier that's applied on top of your other sources of Critical Damage Bonus, or is it a percentage that's added on top of existing percentages?
The way it works is simple. If a character is wearing Maligaro's Virtuosity, their Critical Damage Bonus will always be 300%. This value does not stack or interact with other sources of Critical Damage Bonus but overrides them completely. This means that a character who is using Maligaro's Virtuosity does not want to get any other source of Critical Damage Bonus because doing so will be a complete waste. Instead, these characters want to invest in items, Skills, or passives that reduce their Critical Damage Bonus percentage in exchange for other bonuses.
For example, the Careful Assassin passive (pictured above) reduces the Critical Damage Bonus by 20% but increases the Critical Hit Chance by 50%. With Maligaro's Virtuosity, there is no downside to taking this passive because the item will forcefully negate the -20% Critical Damage Bonus.
