Orbs in Ugaris

What are Orbs?

Orbs are rare magical items applied to equipment to raise the bonuses that gear gives its wearer. They do not change thy character directly — their power lives on the item and only manifests while it is worn. Each orb comes in a specific kind (Lightning, Strength, Tactics, etc.); applying it to a piece of gear increases that gear's bonus to the matching skill or attribute.

Players can claim an orb once per month from each spawner they have previously visited. Use the in-game command /orbs to see the timers on every spawner thou hast already drawn from.

Anti-Orbs & Special Anti-Orbs

For every orb, there exists an anti-orb — the mirror image, with the opposite effect. Where an orb of a given kind raises a piece of equipment's bonus for that skill or attribute, an anti-orb of the same kind removes one such bonus from a piece of gear. They are the only way to peel a misplaced bonus back off an item.

When to use them

• Fixing a wrong slot. If thou hast burned an orb onto the wrong piece of gear, an anti-orb peels it back.
• Moving a bonus. A special anti-orb pulls the bonus off the old item and hands thee a fresh orb to slot onto the new one — no spawner cooldown waited.
• Reforging. Stripping bonuses off an upgraded base item before re-rolling it, or before passing the gear to another character.

What an orb stand gives

Every orb stand can be drawn from once per 30 days; anti-orb sources respawn on the same clock. The kind of orb is rolled evenly across all orb kinds — but the stand has a dark side:

• About 1 use in 10 yields an anti-orb instead of an orb.
• About 1 use in 100 yields an extracting (special) anti-orb — the rare kind that hands the stripped orb back.

The Journal's Orbs tab lists every stand thou hast found with its level requirement and respawn countdown; /orbs prints the same in chat.

Orb Locations

Orb stands are scattered across the realm. The list below is the community's map of known stands; the Journal's Orbs tab shows the ones thou hast reached, with exact level requirements.

Note: To access orbs in sewers, libraries, and shops, you or your escort may need certain quest items such as sewer keys and lock picks, which are rewards for thief guild master quests.
