9 skill gem slots are way too few

I would agree at least 1 or 2 more would be very nice.

" Pretty much. One active skill. Couple boosts. And that's it. The rest is for passives. The way campaign should be played by your second and any subsequent characters: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3772827

You have 2 rings for that.
Never had issues with slots, leveled 6 chars. |

" If you don't use Spirit skills + 2nd weapon set, then you won't. Some people even play zero button builds with zero active skills. Besides, I've already mentioned Unset rings in the main post. Increasing Field of View in PoE: /1236921 Last edited by Shajirr#2980 on Feb 2, 2025, 7:32:34 AM

It definitely needs more. Especially on the blood witch it's already probably the worst ascendency in the game but pretty well requires 4-6 slots taken up with passives.

9 feels to few. Spirit gems (not minion skills) should not take a gemskill slot, 'cause spirit cost is the limit.

Agree
Besides all my active skills, i'm running with an empty tame beast for when i encounter a good monster and that already eats one of the slots, and using 2 rings that grants +1 to skill slots isn't helping much We need at least 2 extra gem slots |

I think 10-11 base skill slots would have been the right number. It is still lower than 13 max slots in UI (so you can still fill in Ascendancy and weapon skills) and using Unset Rings you would be able to reach maximum number of skill slots if you would need them for your build.

" I honestly thought that's how it was going to be with weapon sets. Out of very specific situations there's almost no reason for weapon sets to exist now. Last edited by AIDA_TriEdge#4390 on Apr 20, 2025, 4:40:44 AM

Seems funny to me that they want players seemingly to have like 7 different active skills they're always using, or at least 5, but then yeah you can just spirit it up and use a bunch of passives, just like POE1, and that actually pushes out the POE2 design...
