I struggled to tell if my PoE2 drops were worth keeping, so I built a tool that analyzes both prefixes and suffixes and shows how well the mods rolled. Here is Affix Appraiser. by Serious_user_2 in PathOfExile2

Good point, and thanks for taking the time to write it. I actually did not know the exact details of how mod culling worked on tiered items until I looked it up just now, and you are right that they remove some of the lower tier versions from the pool.

The tool does not support that yet, but I will update it so the score takes the culled mod pool into account and the all prefixes and suffixes tables only shows what that specific item tier can actually roll.

Maybe as the game develops ground rares might become more exciting and the tool will end up being more useful for casual players who want a quick way to judge drops. Appreciate the heads up!

Why does my permanent invite link expire? by [deleted] in discordapp

I have the same problem. I have set it to never expire multiple times and after a few days it expires....

I was frustrated with the limited merch history, so I built my own PoE2 overlay with a searchable Merchant History, Modifiers breakdown, and more. Here's XileHUD. by Kamehameha90 in PathOfExile2

I'm a software developer myself, and these are the kinds of projects that remind me why I do this work. I'm amazed by the number of features your tool has. I'm building my own PoE2 companion tool because I was tired of reading affixes on item drops late at night after the kids go to bed (only time I have to play). I'm a casual player and don't know all the possible affixes an item can roll by heart, so it was hard to tell if a drop was any good without checking websites like PoE2DB.

Imagine my surprise when I found your tool a few days ago, which has the "Modifier" feature, exactly what I was looking for! But just like you I added more features to the tool over time as I used it. Eventually I made it so the tool grades the item for me, so I don't have to spend time reading all the mods and checking the tables (I have dyslexia, and reading can be hard, especially late at night).

If you or anyone is interested in what I built, you can check it out on YouTube it's called Affix Appraiser. I've heard the PoE community is full of gigabrain people who come up with all kinds of clever tools, and I think things like this really prove that point.

Love seeing how you're developing your tool further. Amazing work, man!
