POE 2 Teasers Day 14 - Two Huge Community Tool Improvements - POB and POE Ninja - Path of Exile 2
Summary
- Path of Building 2 will be updated to support the new official Build Editor/Planner feature before the launch of the 0.5.0 expansion.
- poe.ninja has expanded its economic tracking to include unique items by monitoring transactions from the in-game currency market (Anje).
- Build tracking on poe.ninja now provides detailed weapon and ascendancy statistics for the Path of Exile 2 trade league.
Path of Building 2 and the Official Build Planner
Grinding Gear Games released a video regarding the new Build Planner. While much of the information was previously known, the most substantial update is that Path of Building 2 will be updated before the league starts.
This community tool will fully integrate with the new build planner system from day one. This ensures that users will not be stuck using outdated systems during the initial weeks of the expansion, allowing for a seamless transition between the official planner and the community’s primary theory-crafting software.
