Welcome to Path of Building, an offline build planner for Path of Exile!

• Comprehensive offence + defence calculations:
  • Calculate your skill DPS, damage over time, life/mana/ES totals and much more!
  • Can factor in auras, buffs, charges, curses, monster resistances and more, to estimate your effective DPS
  • Also calculates life/mana reservations
  • Shows a summary of character stats in the side bar, as well as a detailed calculations breakdown tab which can show you how the stats were derived
  • Supports all skills and support gems, and most passives and item modifiers
    • Throughout the program, supported modifiers will show in blue and unsupported ones in red
  • Full support for minions
• Passive skill tree planner:
  • Support for jewels including most radius/conversion jewels
  • Features alternate path tracing (mouse over a sequence of nodes while holding shift, then click to allocate them all)
  • Fully intergrated with the offence/defence calculations; see exactly how each node will affect your character!
  • Can import PathOfExile.com and PoEPlanner.com passive tree links; links shortened with PoEURL.com also work
• Skill planner:
  • Add any number of main or supporting skills to your build
  • Supporting skills (auras, curses, buffs) can be toggled on and off
  • Automatically applies Socketed Gem modifiers from the item a skill is socketed into
  • Automatically applies support gems granted by items
• Item planner:
  • Add items from in game by copying and pasting them straight into the program!
  • Automatically adds quality to non-corrupted items
  • Fully intergrated with the offence/defence calculations; see exactly how much of an upgrade a given item is!

    • You can choose the modifier rolls when you add a unique to your build
    • Includes all league-specific items and legacy variants
  • Features an item crafting system:

    • Choose which modifiers appear on each item, and the rolls for each modifier, to suit your needs
    • Has templates that should cover the majority of builds (inb4 'why is there no coral amulet?')
• Other features:
  • You can import passive tree, items, and skills from existing characters
  • Share builds with other users by generating a share code
  • Automatic updating; most updates will only take a couple of seconds to apply
