Early Access games, like Path of Exile 2, are prone to bugs. One such issue is the frustrating "Requirements Not Met" error when attempting to allocate skill points. This guide offers solutions to get you back on track.

What Causes the "Requirements Not Met" Bug in Path of Exile 2?

Players sometimes encounter the "Requirements Not Met" message when allocating skill points, even if adjacent nodes are unlocked. Whether this is a genuine bug or an intricate game mechanic remains unclear. Regardless, resolving this issue is crucial for skill tree progression.

Fixes for the "Requirements Not Met" Bug in Path of Exile 2

Several fixes have been reported by players. Let's explore the most effective solutions:

Advanced gameplay introduces different skill point types. The "Requirements Not Met" error might appear due to using the wrong point type. Check the top-right corner of your screen; it displays your Skill Points, Weapon Set I, Weapon Set II, and (later) Ascendancy Points. Ensure you have the correct point type for the desired node.

Reset Your Skill Points

A mismatch in Weapon Set passive points might be the culprit. The solution? A complete respec. Visit "The Hooded One" in Clearfell Encampment (unlocked after "The Mysterious Shade" quest). This NPC, designed for respeccing, also seems to resolve this bug. Refunding your points and reallocating them often fixes the issue.

Path of Exile 2 is currently available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
