u4gm How to Farm Armourers Scrap and Boost Defences in PoE 2
Most players don't think about quality until they're getting clipped by random rares in Path of Exile 2, then suddenly every little edge matters. I've had runs where a couple of percent on a chest piece felt like the difference between "fine" and "why am I on the floor again," especially when you're already spending bigger currency like Divine Orb and you don't want to waste value on a half-finished base.
What Scraps Actually Do
Armourer's Scraps are simple: each one adds 1% quality to armour, up to 20% in normal use. That's it. No new affixes. No free resist fix. No sneaky life roll. The payoff is the base defense number goes up, and that base is what the rest of your build multiplies. Armour gets more mitigation, evasion scales your chance to avoid hits, and energy shield turns into a bigger buffer. When your tree and gear are already leaning into those stats, quality isn't "small," it stacks up fast.
Getting a Steady Supply
If you're mapping with decent density, scraps kind of show up on their own because https://www.u4gm.com/path-of-exile-2/currency
