Like the predecessor, you have access to a number of minion skills in Path of Exile 2 that allow you to summon some temporary or permanent minions to fight alongside you in battle.

However, the Witch can summon an army of minions to accompany you throughout your journey across the Wraeclast.

There are various useful minion skills that exist in Path of Exile 2, each with its unique abilities and powers. This guide highlights some of the best Minion Skills that players can use in the free-to-play RPG Path of Exile 2.

When it comes to summoning a loyal minion to fight alongside you, the Infernal Hellhound is undoubtedly a top-tier choice. The Infernal Hellhound is one of the best minion skills in Path of Exile 2, which is exclusive to The Infernalist Ascendancy of the Witch.

The skill allows you to summon a loyal Infernal Hellhound that blazes the enemies on fire. The Infernal Hellhound also comes with no Spirit cost, unlike the other minion skills. In addition, the Hellhound also absorbs some of your hit damage and extends your life span. 

2) Skeletal Storm Mage

The Skeletal Storm Mage skills allow you to summon reviving skeletons that can deal massive lightning damage to dead skeletons based on your command. This applies Shock status to enemies, which increases their incoming damage.

The skill is perfect for players who prefer a lightning build, as these Skeletal Storm Mages attack with lightning storms. Use Flammability to reduce the fire resistance and combine with some other powerful minions to take down a group of enemies with ease. 

3) Skeletal Cleric

Path of Exile 2 has both temporary and permanent-type minions. These permanent-type minions can revive themselves over time and become available for your next round of fights. However, if you want to heal them and revive them during the current battle, the Skeletal Cleric minion skill is your best pick.

These magical skeletal minions can heal your other minions and can also revive fallen skeletons. With the Skeletal Cleric minion skill, you can make your minion army almost unbeatable and immortal. These magic skeletons stay back and heal the ally skeletons and minions from a safe distance during the battle.

4) Raging Spirits

The Raging Spirits minion skill doesn’t summon any permanent minions like the other skills; instead, it conjures short-living flaming skulls on all your fire spells while the skill is active. These temporary Raging Spirits attack nearby enemies rapidly and set the area ablaze.

Combing the Raging Spirits with the Flame Wall spell is the best strategy to set an army of enemies on fire. The damage inflicted by Raging Spirits can be further powered up by using Immolate, dealing more fire damage to ignited enemies, and Elemental Focus, inflicting extra elemental damage.
