POE2 Skills
Use the skill hub to decide which POE2 skill belongs in your current build. Start with the role the character needs: main damage, coverage, recovery, control, mobility, or a supporting layer.

Start here when a skill changes the whole route, not just one support slot.
Leveling and Safety Skills
Use these when the current problem is survival, control, or smoother campaign progress.
Ranged and Area Skills
Compare these when the build needs better spacing, coverage, or bow/crossbow direction.
How to Choose a Skill
Do not pick a skill because it looks powerful in isolation. Pick it because your build needs a specific job solved: clearing packs, damaging tougher enemies, staying alive, repositioning, or supporting another main skill.
If the skill does not match your class, weapon, tags, or current progression problem, compare another route before spending time around it. The best skill decision is the one that makes the whole build easier to understand.
