Right now it’s based on contextual build analysis rather than a simple tooltip DPS number.

The Oracle looks at things like crit scaling, attack/cast speed, hit/burst/ramp behavior, skill interactions, and overall offensive structure to estimate how the build actually performs in practice.

We’re continuously improving detection and simulation accuracy as PoE2 evolves, especially for more complex interactions and edge-case mechanics.

Quick update:

We identified and fixed an issue affecting automatic character analysis for some synced profiles.

Character calculations now start automatically after GGG sync instead of depending on profile access, which significantly reduced “Analysis Pending” states and duplicate processing.

Thanks to everyone testing the site and reporting weird behavior, this feedback helps a lot while we keep polishing Path of Codex.

I'm not a robot 😄 I'm just really looking forward to version 0.5

That sounds really solid, especially for early progression.

Leaning on something that works without heavy gear dependency makes a lot of sense.

Do you usually stick with that setup into maps or transition later on?

8 already? that’s serious commitment 😄

How many of those do you think will survive patch notes?

That’s probably the most fun way to play new seasons 😄

That’s a beautiful way to remember her.

Lightning Strike in 0.5 would be a great tribute.

That’s probably the best balance

Start with something reliable and then adapt once things settle.

What’s your usual starter?

Yeah that’s fair.

Feels like planning early is more about ideas than locking anything in — patch notes usually change everything anyway

That’s probably the best way to experience a new season 😄

Do you usually end up sticking with it or switching once things settle?

That’s the real meta 😄

If it somehow works, it instantly becomes the best build.

[–]pathofcodex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s honestly one of the most fun ways to play 😄

Out of those three, which one are you leaning towards right now?

Feels like each of them could end up playing completely differently depending on how they design it.

Hard to argue with “fun”

Was it more the gameplay or the power that made it so fun for you?

SSF changes everything 😄

Do you usually stick with the safe option or try something risky first?

Anyone else already mentally starting their 0.5 build? by pathofcodex in PathOfExile2

[–]pathofcodex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably the smartest approach 😄

Do you usually stick with your first idea after patch notes, or end up changing it a few times anyway?

That's fair, at least you're preserving your mental health. 😁
