Path of Exile Skill Gems and Classification Information

After entering Path of Exile, you will find two things quietly lying on the ground waiting for you to pick them up: both are the core gameplay of the game: Skill Gems and Mechanics. In this section, we will talk about skill gems. (Only talking about Skill Gems itself and its classification, not the mechanism behind it. I intend to put all of them together to make a summary.)

The biggest difference between Path of Exile and other games is that he discarded each character or other professions in other games can only have a fixed skill or skills, and created his core gameplay: Skill Gems Gameplay.


Skill Gems are roughly divided into two categories:
1. Active skill gem
2. Supporting skill gem


Active skill gems allow you to gain an active skill, while support skill gems can be placed in the hole connected to the hole where the active gem is located to give the active gem a special bonus.


Method of Obtaining:
1. Task reward
2. Buy from Skilled Merchant (after completing the corresponding task)
  • a) Skills merchants from Chapters 1 to 4 sell hierarchical skills. However, there are character restrictions (such as Marauder cannot purchase glacial cascade)
  • b) In Chapter Three, the library's NPC sells all the skill gems that can be obtained from the tasks after the different characters in Chapter Three complete the task (except for some special skill gems, he is incomplete.)
  • c) After completing Lilly Roth's mission (Chapter 6 NPC), all non-level skill gems will be sold (except special skill gems such as Portal, Empower, Enlighten and so on)
  • d) The final chapter Aura sells all non-level skill gems.
3. NPC recipe (the recipe will be released together later)
4. Drop from monsters, boxes, etc.
5. Master provided randomly
6. Vaal Skill Gem can be obtained from Vaal containers in the Corrupted Area, or directly through the Vaal Orb of Corrupted Skill gems.
7. Destiny Card


My experience with Skill Gems:
1. Get 10% of your experience gained from the skill gem in the hole of the equipment (this calculation is performed before the character experience penalty formula)
2. Skill Gems will not lose experience (whether you die or not)
3. If there is "Increase XX experience gain" on the equipment, it can also affect the skill gem.
4. Skill gems on secondary weapons can also gain experience (press X in the game)
5. Skill gems can be traded and experience does not change.

When the skill gem gets enough experience and is about to upgrade, the skill experience bar for that skill will appear on the right side of your screen. When it can be upgraded, a "+" sign will appear. Left-click to upgrade, right-click to hide, To avoid some skills that cannot be upgraded (such as release when injured, frequent low-level triggers are required to maintain their safety, if the upgrade is too high, there is no effect.) If you want to upgrade again later, you can press "I" to open the backpack. The upgrade option of the skill gem will appear at the bottom left of the backpack.

When the skill gem is upgraded, the requirements (level, three basic attributes) are also increased. If the requirement cannot be met, the upgrade option of the skill gem will be gray.


About the highest level of skill gem:
Normally, the highest level of skill gem is level 20, but you can get level 21 through the corruption of Vaal Orb. At the same time, some equipment also has a bonus to the skill gem level (such as Loyal Skin-Simple Robe, if you can +1 the gem level on this item, then the clothing can +2). So what is the theoretical maximum level of a skill gem?


There are some special skill gems that cannot be upgraded to that high.
1. Detonate Mines (level 1)
2. Empower (level 3)
3. Amplify (level 3)
4. Enlighten (level 3)
5. Portal (level 1)
6. Vaal Breach


About Vaal Skills:
A special type of skill gem that must be charged with spirits (ie, kill monsters) before use, similar to the potion charging mechanism. But the medicament is full when entering the picture, which is the difference.

The number of Vaal Skill souls will be reset to zero when changing scenes (such as entering another map, entering the special arena of the elders or guards)

The answer is: Level 28-Assuming a +1 skill gem level and a +2 bow skill level bow (or any other +3), use the 21st level frost shooting skill gem to insert. Now Ice Shot is level 24. Then add the 4th-level skill gem. At this moment, the skill gem is also blessed by the "+1 skill gem level" affix, so it is a 5th level grant, and a 5th level can increase the 4th level. level.
