Path of Exile 2 Witch Overview
The Witch returns in Path of Exile 2 with streamlined Necromancy skills. Summoning minions now primarily consumes Spirit, freeing up mana for other spells. You can also acquire items that automatically summon minions, further enhancing your army.
Witch Ascendancies
- Bloodmage: Abilities cost health and mana, but killed enemies drop life remnants. Gain critical damage based on health.
- Infernalist: Gain a Hell Hound pet, replace mana with Infernal Flame for fire spells, and transform into a demon.
Skills and Summons
Choose your undead army composition from the Skill Gems menu. Your Spirit pool determines the number and quality of minions you can summon. Use mana to cast spells that support your minions, spread corruption, or deal direct damage.
