InPath of Exile 2, you acquire different kinds of skills throughout the course of the leveling process.
The actual skills you use in combat can’t be acquired via leveling up.
Unfortunately, these commodities aren’t too common to find across any of the game’s locations.
When you find one of these gems, it will have a number on it.
This increases the skill’s power and other stats depending on what the skill is.
By the end of Act 1, you should see around Level 5 Uncut Skill Gems.
However, the higher-level Uncut Skill Gems will always be rarer than their lower-level counterparts.
The only other way we’ve found to get Uncut Skill Gems is through completing quests.
Sometimes, quest-givers will offer an Uncut Skill Gem as a reward upon a quest’s completion.
Not every quest offers a gem, though, so they come by sparingly.
As we’ve mentioned, bosses have a higher chance to drop Uncut Skill Gems than regular enemies.
While story bosses can be a solid source of gems, there are more side bosses to go around.
The icons will be next to the area’s fast travel Waypoint on the map.
A grayed-out skull means you’ve already defeated that boss.
