In this guide I'll be showing you how you can earn the Overcharged achievement in Path of Exile. So what is the Overcharged achievement and what are the requirements to unlock it?



As you can see, you need a total of 15 combined charges active at the same time. That doesn't necessarily mean you need 5 of each. You're free to mix them up however you want. In this guide we'll be doing it in the following way:

3 base endurance charges from Enduring Cry[pathofexile.gamepedia.com] skill gem
3 from the passive skill tree
2 from wearing 2 Kaom's Sign[pathofexile.gamepedia.com] unique rings
(you probably already have one of these rings or maybe even more. If not then don't worry because they're very cheap to buy. Less than a chaos orb in Standard league)

Total Charges: 8


3 base power charges from Power Siphon[pathofexile.gamepedia.com] skill gem
1 from the passive skill tree

Total Charges: 4


3 base frenzy charges from Frenzy[pathofexile.gamepedia.com] skill gem

Total Charges: 3

That brings us to a grand total of 15 combined charges.

You don't have to create a new character to do this as you can just use an existing character and respec some points in order to pick up the charges skill points in the tree. However, if you don't feel like messing around with any of your characters, it's just as easy to create a new one for the sole purpose of going for this achievement. You don't need to do all the side quests, however you will need to do the side quests that grant you a skill point: The Marooned Mariner[pathofexile.gamepedia.com], The Dweller of the Deep[pathofexile.gamepedia.com], The Way Forward[pathofexile.gamepedia.com]. As for the Bandits, you will need to kill them all for the skill point. You should have the appropriate amount skill points to be able to allocate to the charges you need in the skill tree. Around the beginning of Act 3 in Normal difficulty depending on how much you farm/skip killing mobs in each zone. Approximately level 29.

Start out by creating a Templar or Marauder and follow either of the following skill trees:

Templar Skill Tree[www.poeurl.com].
Marauder Skill Tree[www.poeurl.com]

There's very little difference between them, but it's up to you which one you start with.


(This image is actually a 2.1 skill tree, but the pathing for this achievement hasn't changed in 3.2.1)

Since this character will more or less be a throwaway once you get your achievement, you don't really need to use any proper skill gem combinations. Feel free to level however you want. You will of course need to pick up a wand to be able to use the skill gem Power Siphon and link it with Lesser Multiple Projectiles so you can have more radius when it comes to using it for getting the power charges. You will probably need some dexterity to use Frenzy so just use any Jade amulet you like or get the required amount on any gear pieces you're wearing.

When you're ready to go for the achievement, pick a zone that has a good mob density with easy to kill mobs, spam Enduring Cry first to get all your charges up (8), then use Frenzy immediately afterwards until you get your frenzy charges up (3) then quickly followed by Power Siphon to get the kills until you hit the final 4 power charges, thus unlocking the Overcharged achievement.

We have included a video with a visual demonstration of gameplay on unlocking the achievement.
