Torchlight Infinite Energy

Torchlight Infinite Energy

Energy in Torchlight Infinite plays a crucial role in customizing your character and unleashing their full potential. It acts as a resource used to link Support Skills to your Active and Passive Skills, allowing you to tailor your playstyle and abilities to your liking. Let's delve into this vital system:

What is Energy?

  • A numerical value displayed near your character portrait.
  • Increases with character level and through specific equipment affixes.
  • Used to link Support Skills to your Skill Slots.

Support Skills:

  • Additional abilities that enhance your Active and Passive Skills in various ways.
  • May offer offensive buffs, defensive utilities, crowd control effects, or unique interactions with your core skills.
  • Linked to your Skill Slots using Energy, allowing you to customize your skill set.

How to get Energy:

  • Leveling up: Each level grants a base amount of Energy.
  • Equipment: Certain armor pieces and weapons can have affixes that boost your Energy pool.
  • Empowering Gear: Upgrading equipment can occasionally increase its Energy affixes.

Managing your Energy:

  • Each Support Skill requires a specific amount of Energy to link.
  • Consider the cost and benefits of each Support Skill when customizing your build.
  • Prioritize linking Support Skills that synergize well with your chosen Active and Passive Skills.
  • You can adjust your linked skills at any time through the Skills menu.

Tips for Effective Energy Management:

  • Focus on Build Synergy: Choose Support Skills that enhance your chosen playstyle and Active/Passive Skills, maximizing their effectiveness.
  • Don't Overspend: While linking powerful Support Skills might be tempting, avoid exceeding your Energy limit, as you'll be unable to activate all your skills.
  • Balance Offense and Defense: Consider incorporating both offensive and defensive Support Skills depending on your character and preferred approach.
  • Experiment and Adapt: Don't be afraid to try different configurations and adjust your linked skills as you progress and acquire new gear.

Remember, Energy is a powerful tool for shaping your character in Torchlight Infinite. By understanding its mechanics and managing it wisely, you can unlock your full potential and dominate the battlefield!


Q: How can Energy provided by gear be increased?

A: Higher level gear (item level, not the level required to equip them) will provide greater Energy increases. Gear Energy may be refreshed by using Energy Cores with Maud in your hideout.

Torchlight Infinite Energy On Gear

Energy determines how many Support Skills you can use on your Active and Passive Skills to deal more damage and have better defenses. Starting at item level 45 Energy starts appearing on gear. The maximum is scaled by the item level, NOT the level required to equip the item. This scaling caps out at item level 80.

Item Category Enerygy Caps
  • Chest Armor
  • 2-Handed Weapons
122 Energy
  • Helmets
  • Gloves
  • Boots
  • Shields
  • 1-Handed Weapons

  • Rings
  • Belts
  • Hero Relics
No Energy

You also gain 1 Energy per character level; this is 100 additional Energy by leveling up.

Energy Core: An item required to refine the gear energy value. Use Energy Core for Gear Empowerment to randomize the energy value on an item. When you have a good piece of gear with low Energy, empower it until you get near the maximum. Or alternatively, purchase a high energy base in the Trade House.
