How to get more Alchemy Orbs?

I've been running tons of map lately (t5/t10) and use alch. orbs to upgrade them but don't have many left... how am I suppose to get them besides trading with other people?

Thanks.

Pick up all unique items and sell them to vendor for alchemy shards. Sell things to other people for alchemy orbs. Do Underground Sea for the divination card that gives 7 alchemy orbs (the card is very common). Trade other currency into alchemy orbs.

I personally have not run out of alchemy orbs this league and I have done 2400 something maps. I have not sold anything to other people for alchemy orbs, and barely done any underground sea's for the divination cards. Delving gives a good amount of currency if you get the forgotten wealth chests + currency nodes etc.

Thanks for your reply, I haven't done any delve stuff because I'm fairly new to the game (15 days by now) but I'll try that out and the other tips you gave me.

Thank you.
they drop in the wild rather frequently and come as shards from vendoring some rare and unique items. I usually can sustain Alchs throughout season just by coming home with one or two inventories of items per map.

if you dont want to buy them then you will have to pick up crap uniques and eventually more rare items.

Vagan also sells them for regrets.

If you lack alchs, you'd better set loot filter to regular and just pick up more stuff.
Cherrypicking uniques and grabbing alchs off the floor can't compensate for the vendor food with +2 and chaos res - it's a shitload of alch shards.

Also, the going methodology is to use transmutes on white maps (T1-5), and alchs on yellow maps (T6-10). If you are using alchs on white maps you are probably not getting a return that is worth the cost.

I've been able to keep myself with a surplus of alchs without having to trade for them usings the methods the others have described. If you're running out, you're using too many in the wrong places.

even though the actual cost is too high, 10 alchs for 8 regrets, i've been doing it all league long and its plenty fine. i get so many regrets from delves and stuff and i just figure i'd rather trade with vagan than trade the regrets to chaos then chaos to alchs
