Peglin Orb Types Guide

Updated 20 Oct 2026 Source Synthesized from published Peglin guides; rewritten in original wording on 20 October 2026 By

Orbs differ by behaviour more than by damage. Once you know the families, you can read a new orb in seconds.

Standard and heavy orbs

Standard orbs bounce normally and scale with peg count. Heavy orbs punch through pegs and travel further before falling out.

Multi-hit and splitting orbs

Some orbs split into smaller copies or trigger extra hits. These pair extremely well with per-peg relics.

Utility orbs

Not every orb is damage. Some heal, some add coins, some refresh the board. They are weaker in a fight and stronger in a run.

Frequently asked questions

How do I tell orb types apart?

Read the behaviour line in the [orb database](/peglin/orbs-database/). Damage numbers matter less than what the orb does on contact.

Should I carry utility orbs?

One is usually worth it. Carrying several leaves your damage too low for later fights.

Do upgraded orbs change type?

No. An upgrade raises numbers, not behaviour.
