Many skills have "energy build up" in them. This is terrible wording for current PoE.
Main Post:
There's a big focus on energy shield in the game, and some skills directly interact with energy shield in their description... I have 14k hours in poe1 and got confused at the descriptions that mentioned energy a few times before catching myself, I can imagine a new player reading this and coming up with 1+1=3.
Most of them even have "maximum energy" listed which sounds a LOT like maximum energy shield at a glance.
here's an easy example with cast-on-melee kill:
While active, gains energy when you kill enemies with melee attacks and triggers socketed spells on reaching maximum energy. Gains 30 Energy when you Kill an Enemy with a Melee Hit Triggers all Socketed Spells and loses all Energy on reaching maximum Energy Has 10 maximum Energy per 0.1 seconds of base cast time of Socketed Spells Socketed Skills deal 50% more Damage
A new player (or even experienced one glancing at the gem too quickly) would probably think this is an ES skill.
