↖ Removing Fractures from Weapons

If you have a fractured weapon and want to remove the fractures, follow these steps:

• Head to a vendor and gather the following items: your fractured weapon, a Blacksmith's Whetstone, and a Magic or Rare Rustic Sash.
• Ensure that the Rustic Sash is Magic or Rare, as this is a crucial component of the recipe.
• Sell your fractured weapon, Blacksmith's Whetstone, and Magic or Rare Rustic Sash to the vendor.
• In return, you will receive your original base weapon without fractures.

This method works for any weapon type with fractures and is especially useful if you have a unique or interesting base item that you cannot easily replace. Keep in mind that the resulting item will be of the same level and base as the original.

 

↖ Correcting Crafting Mistakes

Suppose you accidentally applied the wrong fracture when trying to craft a specific mod combination on your weapon.

Here's how you can fix it:

• Follow the same process mentioned above to remove the fractures from your weapon.
• Once you receive the unfractured base weapon, you'll notice that the Crucible tree you previously applied is still present on the item.
• Now you can attempt to apply the desired fracture, ensuring you hit the correct mod this time.

Remember that this method only works if you have not used a Gilded Fossil on the item. Using a Gilded Fossil before attempting to fracture the weapon will result in the item being irreversibly lost when sold to the vendor.

 

↖ Removing Fractures from Boots

The vendor recipe for removing fractures from boots is slightly different.

Here's how to do it:

• Craft your boots and fracture them.
• If the desired mod (e.g., Max Life) was missed and a different mod (e.g., Chaos Resistance) was applied, reroll the boots until you hit Movement Speed.
• Once you have boots with Movement Speed, add an Augmentation Orb to obtain a Magic item.
• Sell the Movement Speed boots and the Augmentation Orb to the vendor.
• In return, you will receive a new pair of boots without fractures.

Note that the recipe for boots requires the boots to have a base Movement Speed value.

You can increase the Movement Speed by using the recipe repeatedly, gradually reaching the maximum of 30 Movement Speed.

 

Conclusion:

Understanding how to remove Fractured from items in Path of Exile can be invaluable when crafting unique and powerful items. This guide has provided step-by-step instructions for removing fractures from weapons and boots, along with some important considerations. Remember to be cautious with Gilded Fossils, as they can render the removal process ineffective.
