In Path of Exile 2 (PoE2), the Mirror of Kalandra is the rarest and most valuable currency item in the game. It allows players to create an exact mirrored copy of an equippable non-unique item. This powerful tool is primarily used for duplicating the most extraordinary and perfectly crafted gear.

Here’s a guide to understanding, getting, and using the Mirror of Kalandra.

What Is a Mirror of Kalandra?

  • What it does: Creates a mirrored copy of a non-unique item.

  • Why it’s useful: A mirrored item retains the exact stats, sockets, and modifiers of the original item. However, the mirrored version cannot be modified in any way.

For example:

  • If you have a perfectly crafted rare sword, you can use a Mirror of Kalandra to make an identical copy of it for use or trade.

  • The mirrored copy will have the same modifiers, sockets, and links but will include a “Mirrored” tag.

How to Get a Mirror of Kalandra

1. Drops from Monsters

  • The Mirror of Kalandra is one of the rarest drops in the game. It has an extremely low chance to drop from enemies, bosses, chests, or destructible objects.

2. Trade

  • The Mirror of Kalandra is highly valuable and often used as a currency standard for trading the best items in the game. If you’re looking to acquire one, you’ll likely need to trade other high-value currency or items.

3. League Rewards or Events

  • Occasionally, league-specific mechanics or rare rewards from events may provide an opportunity to obtain a Mirror of Kalandra.

How to Use a Mirror of Kalandra

Using a Mirror of Kalandra is simple but should only be done with extreme care:

  1. Right-click the Mirror of Kalandra in your inventory.

  2. Left-click on a non-unique item that you want to duplicate.

  3. The item will be mirrored, and the mirrored version will appear in your inventory.

Note:

  • Mirrored items cannot be modified in any way. This includes rerolling stats, changing sockets, or corrupting the item.

  • The mirrored item will have the “Mirrored” tag to distinguish it from the original.

When to Use a Mirror of Kalandra

Duplicating the Best Items

  • Use a Mirror of Kalandra on perfectly crafted rare gear that has the ideal modifiers, sockets, and links for your build.

Trading for Huge Value

  • Many players use mirrored items as highly valuable trade assets. Mirrored copies are often worth large amounts of in-game currency, making them a cornerstone of the economy.

Tips for Using a Mirror of Kalandra

  • Use on Endgame Gear: Since the Mirror of Kalandra is so rare, it’s best saved for items with near-perfect modifiers.

  • Plan for Trade: If you’re using the mirror on someone else’s item, ensure you have a trade agreement, as many mirrored items are shared in the community.

  • Don’t Waste It: Mirroring a mediocre item isn’t worth it. Make sure the item is the absolute best possible version before using this currency.
