Waystone (Tier 16) Can Only be Acquired By Corruption or Trade

Path of Exile 2 (PoE2) - Waystone Corruption

Waystone (Tier 16) can only be acquired by using a Vaal Orb on a Waystone (Tier 15) or from the trading site. Note that using the Vaal Orb does not guarantee the upgrade as it is based on chance.

Use the Reforging Bench to Upgrade Waystones

Path of Exile 2 (PoE2) - Reforging Bench

Use three of the same Waystone tiers in the Reforging Bench to acquire a higher tier of Waystone. Using a higher Waystone tier increases an area's difficulty, but it also yields better rewards when defeating enemies.
