How to Summon Minions in Path of Exile 2
In Path of Exile 2 (PoE2) summoning minions requires using skills and managing a resource called Spirit. Here's a simple guide to help you summon and maintain minions:
1. Obtain Minion Skill Gems
Find or Purchase Gems: Look for skill gems that allow you to summon minions, such as Raise Spectre or Summon Skeletons. These can be found as loot or bought from vendors.
Socket the Gems: Place these skill gems into appropriately colored sockets on your gear to activate the summoning skills.
2. Understand and Manage Spirit
What Is Spirit?: Spirit is a resource used to summon and sustain minions. Each minion summoned reserves a portion of your total Spirit.
Increase Your Spirit:
Equip Scepters: Some scepters provide additional Spirit when equipped.
Use Consumables: Certain items, like the Gembloom Skull, can increase your Spirit when used.
Ascendancy Choices: For the Witch class, ascending to the Infernalist can offer ways to boost Spirit.
3. Summon Your Minions
Activate the Skill: Use the assigned key or button to cast the summoning skill, which will call forth your minions.
Maintain Minions: Keep an eye on your Spirit levels to ensure you can sustain your summoned minions.
