Breachstone in Path of Exile 2 — From 300 Splinters to the Breach Strongholds

The Breachstone is the Breach mechanic's endgame key: it is required to reveal Breach Strongholds on the Atlas, where the toughest Hiveborn and the Breachlords wait. Getting one in 0.5 runs through the Genesis Tree.

How to get Breachstone

  • Breach Splinters drop from Hiveborn killed inside Breach encounters — the faster you clear, the longer the Breach timer lasts and the more splinters you bank.
  • A full stack of 300 Breach Splinters automatically combines into a Revelatory Wombgift. If the auto-combine does not trigger, split one splinter off the stack and re-stack it.
  • Take the Revelatory Wombgift to the Genesis Tree and birth it into a Breachstone.
  • Named Breachstones for the individual Breachlords (Xoph's, Tul's, Esh's, Uul-Netol's and Chayula's) also exist, and both stones and splinters trade freely on the market.

How to use Breachstone

  • A Breachstone is required to reveal a Breach Stronghold on the Atlas.
  • Strongholds are the deep end of the Breach mechanic — the most dangerous Hiveborn, the best Catalyst and splinter returns, and the route to the Breachlords themselves.

Breachstone FAQ

How do you combine Breach Splinters in POE2?

Collect 300 Breach Splinters — the full stack automatically combines into a Revelatory Wombgift. Birth that Wombgift at the Genesis Tree to receive a Breachstone. If a full stack does not auto-combine, split one splinter off and re-stack it to trigger the conversion.

How do you use a Breachstone in POE2?

A Breachstone is required to reveal a Breach Stronghold on the Atlas. Open the Stronghold to face the most dangerous Hiveborn content and work toward the Breachlords.

Is it better to sell Breach Splinters or Breachstones?

Compare the live prices on this page: if a Breachstone sells for more than 300 splinters' worth, combine before selling; if splinters are bid up, sell them raw in bulk. The spread shifts over the league, so check before each bulk sale.
