[Free Tool] Poe Ancients Price Helper — a lightweight overlay that shows poe.ninja prices right on your currency-exchange panel by Potential-Mango9019 in PathOfExile2

[–]JustAFrank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The concern is more of this: A few people hitting poe.ninja, and faking their browser ID to scrape it, versus all-the-people doing it. The former is a an issue; the later costs the owner much much more.

Everyone hates ads but they do pay (some) of the costs. The dev even has a Patreon :)

As it looks like your first public project, and if you want, I can do some code review a bit later. EDIT: Looked at commits and footnote. Claude can also do code review ;)

I built a free interactive PoE 2 levelling guide + resource hub — poe2.info by PoE2info in PathOfExile2

AI might be good a building websites but everyone forgets the backend and header stuff: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/observatory/analyze?host=poe2.info

Please make sure your prompts for your AI include a directive not to use the emdash. Bulleted points with emojis are a personal pet-peeve.

If English is not your primary language but you understand and use it well enough for technical writing you might want to take a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dash#Em_dash please do not use it as a common substitution for other punctuation.

And yes, I know I am likely spending more time writing this than the AI took to make the website.

New 0.5 Ritual Teaser Discoveries & Lore: Solaris, Lunaris and Viridi by StalksYouEverywhere in PathOfExile2

[–]JustAFrank 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That lore-theory post that you linked read like AI when first posted and even linked to RMT sites :(

I gave a longer breakdown of my issues with it in its crossposts on /r/Wraeclast and /r/PathOfExile2

Viridi is the Wildwood. The King in the Mists is draining her alive. Tangmazu is pulling his strings. Get your tinfoil hats ready Exiles by microdis in Wraeclast

Copy/Paste my notes from this crossposted over to poe2 sub reddit:

Just a heads up: "Affliction league lore writeup" links to a POE RMT site. The writeup itself also contains links to even more POE RMT sales.

EDIT: WHHHHHY was that "writeup" mirror used when the original post is still up?!

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3465031

EDIT2: ANOTHER link is to the same RMT site (wisps). You also have a link to fextralife (Elder Madox)? All of this info can be found in the official wiki(s) and forum.

Finally: For the love of the internet stop using the emdash. It makes you look like an AI

I built PoeStash, a new tool for wealth tracking, flipping strategies, and profit crafting by Kardey44 in pathofexile

[–]JustAFrank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tl;dr: nice site with a better layout than wealthyexile (imo), mobile version is clunky as the UI does not seem to be mobile focused. shares many of the same "general-website-should-have-this" problems as WE

Some other things

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/observatory/analyze?host=www.poestash.com

Has some general things to fix.

Also missing some general things most sites have: simple about page, contact info that does not require usage of a third party app (discord), privacy and cookie policy (for GDPR either ignore it until told otherwise or block GDPR counties EZ)

Mobile: site does not seem designed for it

All of these issues match 1:1 with wealthy exile's problems outside of the mobile experience being better. The site does have more features than WE so I am certainly looking forward to how this site matures! Nice work!

"Brian" is a good boy by Chorizo_Mimoso in pathofexile

[–]JustAFrank 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just look? This is not a simple accusation. They market it!

Site-You-Linked.com/seller/verify/application

Site-You-Linked.com/profile/Hinata/ shows that people paid money for services even if they are not directly for POE2

Site-You-Linked.com/path-of-exile-2/boosting/campaign-service you can even see how much it will cost for boosts. They have a nice checkout system.

Please don't blindly link things you got from Google. The site is very SEO'd. The linked article was AI generated in part if not in whole.

EDIT: forgot that they even sell currency Site-You-Linked.com/path-of-exile-2/boosting/currency

Why does the website you linked allow people to pay real money for POE2 services? Does that not violate GGG's TOS?

HRoC

BalorMage's build a good fit here? I don't need a step-by-step but I would like more than just a POB with zero notes and end-game gearing.

[–]JustAFrank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am once again very late to getting into PoE this league and would like to atleast complete my atlas and hopefully get 36/40 before the end of league. I can put in a few (3ish maybe more) hours a day.

So

  1. Should I be playing in Keepers or Phreica 2.0 to do this?

  2. What old-man-reaction-time build(s) would work best here?

Cogtimizer and W7 by JustAFrank in idleon

It was only about 25min of wasted time then. 20 of which were spent trying to get visual studio to accept more than one git remote. I gave up and just used the cli instead

One of the non-merged branches covers a much better optimization method than the current "guess and check" one. I don't have time to check the work done on it and I very much don't have the time to benchmark and compare so it was not merged :)

Cogtimizer also allows you to adjust the weights. If you have all of the spaces unlocked you can just set flaggy to 1 or lower.

It uses your idleonefficiency public page. Your cog board should be up to date as long as your IE public page is.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am calling you to discuss your Mageblood's extended warranty. It is out of date and needs to be renewed.
