Mastering Power Charges in Path of Exile 2

Power Charges are a crucial mechanic in Path of Exile 2, enabling devastating builds. This guide explains how they function and how to maximize their effectiveness.

What are Power Charges?

Power Charges act as multipliers for specific skills. While inactive, they don't provide direct benefits. However, skills like Falling Thunder utilize them to significantly boost their power. They are essential components of certain builds, such as the Tempest Flurry Invoker build. Most builds, however, don't require them. They function similarly to Frenzy and Endurance Charges; their impact is triggered only when consumed by a compatible skill or modified by specific items or effects.
