PoE 2 Crafting Guide: How to Craft Endgame +2 Projectile Siren Scale Gloves with 60% Socketed Augment Effect

Summary

Crafting high-end gear in Path of Exile 2 is all about maximizing your odds while protecting valuable modifiers. This guide walks through a proven method for crafting Siren Scale Gloves featuring +2 to Level of All Projectile Skills and 60% Increased Effect of Socketed Augment Skills, making them an excellent choice for projectile-based builds such as Spark, Lightning Spear, or other endgame caster setups. To fund your crafting, buy POE2 Currency and get the materials for perfect rolls without the grind.

Prepare the Base Item

Increase the Gloves to 20% Quality

Start with a normal Siren Scale Gloves base. Before adding any modifiers, increase its quality to 20% using quality currency. Higher quality improves the base defenses and should always be done before serious crafting begins.

Socket the Calgaran Rune

Next, socket a Coller's Hunt Calgaran Rune into the gloves. Since this modifier can naturally roll during crafting, adding it before upgrading the item provides more flexibility later.

Use an Orb of Transmutation to turn the gloves into a magic item with one random modifier.

Roll the Perfect Magic Base

Target +2 to Level of All Projectile Skills

Your first objective is to obtain +2 to Level of All Projectile Skills while keeping the magic item clean.

Whenever you hit an unwanted suffix, remove it with an Orb of Annulment. If you're on a tighter budget, you can instead upgrade the gloves to rare and reroll with Chaos Orbs, although staying at the magic stage is generally more efficient for targeted crafting.

Look for a Strong Secondary Modifier

Keep rolling until you find a base that includes:

+2 to Level of All Projectile Skills

A strong Energy Shield modifier (ideally Tier 1)

This combination creates a valuable base worth investing in for the remaining crafting process.

Upgrade to Rare with an Essence

Use an Essence of Opulence

Once the desired magic item is ready, use an Essence of Opulence to upgrade it into a rare item.

This guarantees Increased Rarity of Items Found, one of the preferred modifiers for this craft. If rarity isn't important for your build, another offensive essence such as one providing Critical Damage can also be considered.

At this point, your gloves should have three modifiers.

Add a Fourth Modifier for Fracturing

A Fracturing Orb requires at least four modifiers.

Use Omen of Sinestral Necromancy

Instead of adding a random affix, use an Omen of Sinestral Necromancy before applying Desecration. This guarantees that the new Desecrated modifier becomes a prefix, effectively increasing your chances of fracturing a desirable modifier because the hidden Desecration modifier cannot be selected.

Once the gloves have four modifiers, use Divine Orbs to improve the values of important affixes, especially Energy Shield. Perfect rolls aren't mandatory, but higher values are worth pursuing before committing to a Fracturing Orb.

Attempt the Fracture

Now comes the biggest gamble.

Use a Fracturing Orb and hope it locks +2 to Level of All Projectile Skills.

If another modifier is fractured instead, you'll need to decide whether the item is still worth continuing or whether it's better to start over. Since this is pure RNG, success may require multiple attempts.

Force the 60% Socketed Augment Effect

Assuming the item is still usable, the next goal is obtaining 60% Increased Effect of Socketed Augment Skills.

Because the Essence modifier counts as a crafted modifier, socket Astrid's Creativity to allow an additional crafted modifier.

Use Essence of Horror

Next:

1. Activate Omen of Sinestral Crystallization.

2. Use an Essence of Horror.

3. The essence removes one modifier while guaranteeing the Socketed Augment Effect modifier.

If everything goes well, you'll retain your important Energy Shield roll while gaining the desired 60% augment effect.

Improve the Remaining Prefixes

With the core modifiers secured, continue refining the remaining prefixes.

Use Ancient Ribs together with Omens to repeatedly reroll the Desecrated modifier until you obtain a useful Energy Shield percentage or another valuable defensive stat.

Add Optional Offensive Stats

Depending on your build, you may also temporarily block undesirable modifiers before using a Perfect Exalted Orb to improve your chances of hitting useful affixes such as:

Projectile Speed

Spell Damage

Cast Speed

Energy Shield

This stage is largely optional and depends on how much currency you're willing to invest.

Finish the Gloves

Once the main stats are complete, replace Astrid's Creativity if desired.

A common choice is a rune that grants Cast Speed. Thanks to the 60% Increased Effect of Socketed Augment Skills, an 8% Cast Speed augment is boosted to roughly 12%, making it significantly stronger than normal.

Corrupt for Additional Power

If you're feeling lucky, use a Vaal Armor Infuser to increase quality beyond 20%. This can improve the item further but carries the risk of corruption.

Finally, corrupt the gloves in the Temple of Corruption in hopes of gaining:

A third socket

A powerful corruption implicit

Other valuable endgame bonuses

Keep in mind that corruption is irreversible and always involves significant risk.

Final Result

An ideal finished pair of Siren Scale Gloves should include most of the following:

+2 to Level of All Projectile Skills

60% Increased Effect of Socketed Augment Skills

High flat Energy Shield

Increased Energy Shield %

Increased Item Rarity (optional)

Cast Speed from a socketed rune

22%+ Quality

Three sockets (if corruption succeeds)

A useful corruption implicit

While the process is expensive and highly RNG-dependent, following this order minimizes wasted currency and gives you the best chance of producing a powerful pair of endgame gloves for projectile-based builds. With enough POE2 Currency, you can sustain the process and see it through to completion.
