As an early access title, Path of Exile 2 is still a bit rough around the edges in a lot of ways, and one issue people have is the fact that they cannot seem to figure out how to swap weapon sets. In this guide, we will be showing you the hilariously simple but needlessly shrouded method for doing just that, as well as an alternative way that you can try out.
How to Swap Weapon Sets
So, you have equipped two different sets of weapons and are confused as to how you are supposed to switch between them. Well, all you really need to do is press the “X” button on your keyboard. This is the default key bind for swapping weapons.
An alternative you can do is open the skills menu and then add the basic attack move of the other weapon to your skill bar. By doing this, you can also swap over by pressing that. Alternatively, you can add the “Toggle Weapon Set” move to your skill bar as well.
If you are using a controller or playing on console, you might want to check out our guide on how to set your skill key binds on a controller for this. From there, you should be able to find the “Toggle Weapon Set” move as well!

That really is all there is to it. This mechanic might feel a bit obtuse as a new player, but once you know how to do it, there should not be any more issues swapping between your two distinct sets!
