Thing is the game is not based on the old MMO trinity: healer/tank/dps.

There are skills which gives you charges (e.g. for power charges you could use Power Siphon: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/18360). Power charges increases your critical hit chance.

I came back to this thread because I realized lately, the ability to share charges with Conduit (center of the passive tree) is an effective way to support a party.

However you support your fellow exile's combat abilities rathen than heal them, by sharing Endurance, Frenzy and Power charges.

Okay thank you. How much of a increase are we talking about?

Charges

Some skills grant Endurance (strength), Frenzy (dexterity), or Power (intelligence) charges.
Each charge lasts a short duration before it disappears. Gaining a charge resets the duration of all accumulated charges.

Endurance charges are related to the strength attribute and grant +5% physical damage reduction, and +5% to elemental resistances (fire, cold, and lightning) per charge.
The physical damage reduction stacks with the damage reduction from armour, so that they are both applied at the same time. For example, if a monster deals 100 damage, and you have 10% DR from two endurance charges, and enough armour to prevent 30 of the 100 damage, the incoming damage would be reduced by 40.

Frenzy charges are related to the dexterity attribute and grant +5% attack speed and +5% cast speed per charge.

Power charges are related to the intelligence attribute and grant +50% critical strike chance per charge.

By default characters can have a maximum number of 3 active charges of each type at one time. This maximum can be increased by certain passive skills.
