Path Of Building

Path of Building can help Path of Exile players optimize their characters to their peak power levels. While Path of Exile may have gained early derision as a watered-down version of Diablo, it's now a completely different game. Regular updates over the course of years have transformed it into one of the most feature-rich action RPGs ever made. But that level of density can be intimidating to new players and confusing even to seasoned veterans.

Path of Building does the exhaustive number crunching for you. This open-source build planner takes all the data from the very complex skill trees in Path of Exile and distills them into a format that makes it incredibly easy to know exactly what any given build will look like. Path of Building is perfectly precise when it comes to providing both primary and secondary stats, but the breadth of data covered here means that it can be used for simulation too. You can even try on different gear loadouts so you can get a better understanding of how your character will feel in battle. The flexibility at work here means you can more or less automate your character's entire progression from the first level to the last.

The impact on the larger Path of Exile community is even more important. While players have long shared their preferred builds on message boards and platforms like Discord, Path of Building provides a smooth and seamless method for both important and exporting character builds. One of Path of Exile's biggest successes is its variety of playstyles, and Path of Building lets you jump into practically any role without having to spend hours poring over spreadsheets.
