1. Rotate Tablet Effects Based on Path of Exile 2 Currency Encounter
You’re not locked into your Tower’s Tablet configuration permanently. Between zones or during town breaks, you can swap out Tablets to better suit upcoming fights.

For bossing, you may want:

Fortitude + Binding + Flame to survive longer while dishing out damage.

For clearing:

Echoes + Reflection + Flame to cause AOE effects that clear packs quickly.

2. Use Tablets as a Build Booster
If you’re playing a trap build, Tower tablets that mimic or duplicate traps (e.g., Echoes or Binding) are incredibly useful. Minion builds benefit from Tablets of Reflection and Fortitude to spawn or heal allies.

3. Combine Duplicate Tablets for Upgrades
If you find multiple Tablets of the same type, you can combine them at special Tablet Fusion Altars found in Act 5+ to create Rare Tablets. Rare Tablets provide superior stats or dual effects — e.g., “Tablet of Radiant Flame: Fire effects deal 50% more damage and ignite enemies for 2s.”

Unlocking the Tower Archive
Once you've found at least 10 different Tablets and activated 5 unique Towers, you unlock access to the Tower Archive, a special system in your hideout or home base.

The Archive lets you:

Pre-assign Tablet loadouts to Towers in maps

Store unused Tablets for trade or reuse

Rebuild Towers manually in certain endgame maps

Craft Rare or Unique Tablets

You can also bind Towers to your character in the Archive, allowing specific Tower effects to passively trigger under certain conditions. For example, if you link a Tower that heals nearby allies, it might auto-cast a regeneration aura when you drop below 50% life.

Tips and Tricks for Tower and Tablet Mastery
Scout zones thoroughly: Some Towers are hidden behind destructible walls or off-path routes.

Time your Tower activations: Most Towers have a cooldown or limited charge system. Trigger them just before big waves or bosses.

Combine fire, echo, and binding for one of the best wave-clear combos.

Tablet Vendors rotate inventory every 2 acts — check back often!

Trade Tablets: High-value ones like Tablet of Echoes or rare dual-typed versions sell well in trade hubs.

The Endgame: Tower Siege Maps
In Path of Exile 2’s endgame, Tower and Tablet systems culminate in Siege Maps — encounters where players must defend key Towers from waves of enemies, while using stored Tablet loadouts. These maps drop:

Tablet Fractures (used to make Unique Tablets)

Tower Sigils (map modifiers)

Empowered Tower Blueprints

Mastering Towers and Tablets becomes essential if you want to unlock endgame crafting recipes, alternate Ascendancy modifiers, and chase some of POE 2 Divine Orbs for sale the best items in PoE2.
