How Essence of Abrasion works
Essences are a crafting currency in Path of Exile 2 that force a guaranteed modifier onto an item rather than leaving it to chance. Applying one rerolls the item while locking in the essence’s specific mod, which makes them the reliable way to hit a known affix when pure random crafting is too slow.
