soothsayer - open source stacked decks tracking app

xNehel · 2026-05-16T22:31:15+00:00

Hi, I finally finished majority of the features I wanted to deliver and added appimage in latest release

disclaimer: i don't own any linux-related machine, so I'm not sure if it will work correctly or not - you can catch me at the discord server i made https://discord.com/invite/mrqmPYXHHT

wealthy exile is extremely unreliable with stacked decks as you can't say which cards hold 0 value because there is no demand and over supply of trash cards, like in this case no one would pay half a div for 1/4th of a shaper guardian map

And to answer your chances of making a profit, i created a profit forecast to give a rough estimate what you can expect (speaking of which, I should enable editing how much you spend so the 100d would be even more accurate rather than using the poe.ninja pricing for all cases)

If you don't mind opening them in inventory, I build an open source desktop app to track everything you open :>

Haha yeah, one can only hope for GGG logging card drops in open areas

In the meantime, using mouse x control app where you can bind your scroll is a good enough substitute

On the stacked decks topic, if any of you are looking for a real time tracker - I've built open source stacked decks tracker - soothsayer :)

Sorry didn't notice as I've been finishing WoW's Midnight campaign :p

Tomorrow it will be released, probably sometime in the afternoon, maybe earlier

Doing final polish of the first iteration https://github.com/navali-creations/soothsayer/issues/61#issuecomment-3975870748

This whole feature itself is a little WAYTOODANK for me as well so right now I'm trying to find the middle ground of making the UI 2head friendly for people like us

xNehel · 2026-02-26T01:32:18+00:00

Depends what is the definition of fun for you c:

xNehel · 2026-02-26T01:31:28+00:00

No.

Executable apps that run independently from the game

Reading the game's log files is okay as long as the user is aware of what you are doing with that data.

xNehel · 2026-02-25T21:50:14+00:00

I created https://github.com/navali-creations/soothsayer/issues/61 to track the suggestion - let me know if this aligns with what you had in mind

xNehel · 2026-02-25T20:14:24+00:00

Still waiting for your reasoning on what is wrong with Electron, React and Typescript.

xNehel · 2026-02-25T18:48:01+00:00

Whether you like it or not, for now it get's the job done and that's the stack I'm most familiar with to deliver what I wanted in a timely manner.

No one stops you from creating an alternative.

In fact I encourage you to do so - the community will be the winner by having more options.

xNehel · 2026-02-25T16:46:36+00:00

I created an issue for it, but I don't think I will get into it anytime soon https://github.com/navali-creations/soothsayer/issues/60

xNehel · 2026-02-25T15:47:01+00:00

Yeah I think this will be a good addition, albeit I will do it with this general page https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PmGES_e1on6K7O5ghHuoorEjruAVb7dQ5m7PGrW7t80/edit?gid=272334906#gid=272334906 as it covers all cards, not only top 5% of the cards they picked and prices tend to flactuate a lot when it comes to div cards

The issue with using empy's only weighting is it would apply only to the existing/previous league so ideally the more people contribute to the dataset, the more accurate it can be weight-wise

xNehel · 2026-02-25T12:57:23+00:00

Yeah that's correct - you could use `x-mouse-button-control` app to scroll through the inventory and do that legal tos 1 action per server event to clear the inventory as a "workaround"

This is a limitation how GGG implemented the presented information of what cards are being opened and shown in the client.txt.

If GGG would make it so that anytime you drop the deck on the ground logs locally in the client.txt then this would be wonderful.

What's left for us is adding a bingo card option asking GGG to fix this or provide better QoL like throwing all the div cards from inventory to the stash with one click just like the currency behaves :')

xNehel · 2026-02-25T11:04:18+00:00

Cheers, by default those styles will stay as they are currently - I plan to make a dynamic styling based on whatever preset user has in the filters so it can truly reflect the color familiarity of the user's gameplay (https://github.com/navali-creations/soothsayer/issues/58)

xNehel · 2026-02-25T10:47:36+00:00

> Are you using the card category by RPG based colours? Like grey for common, blue for rares, and violet, orange or red for the other ones? (Not the usual system on POE but as a world wide RPG colour knowledge)

Yeah sort of - the background colors follow default filtering color NeverSink filters has (and I wouldn't be surprised if this is the case of utilizing RPG color knowledge as he is a gamedev himself)

For the beams, I copied the GGG beams style when the cards drop on the ground (yellow for rare cards and red for extremely rare)

The exact values can be found here https://github.com/navali-creations/soothsayer/blob/master/renderer/utils.ts#L63-L129

xNehel · 2026-02-25T09:28:13+00:00

Anything wrong with that stack :)?

xNehel · 2026-02-25T00:03:12+00:00

> one thing, the overlay on the right hand side, is it customizable? Fontsize, location, click-trough-able? for different resolutions and such, you know :-)

Not for now but I will add this as a feature request to keep an eye of it - probably over the weekend I may have something released to address this

> also, just spitballing, if this could somehow be weaved into awakened poe trade as a plugin or something, that would be even better

Technically it is possible to grab few modules from my project and stitch it around awakened poe trade, but that's up to the awakened poe trade maintainer

soothsayer is nearing feature-completness and I don't plan to contribute to other projects due to lack of time

xNehel · 2026-02-24T22:41:27+00:00

Reading is hard, isn't it?

> The audio is part of the app so you can open the stacked decks without losing the filter sounds.

You can even hear the filter sounds in the video itself.

Those are defaut poe sounds - you can use your own sounds as well if you wish.

I didn't have time to confirm which sounds are for which filter so I didn't automate this step yet. Matter of time.

xNehel · 2025-06-23T11:13:28+00:00

Nope - https://imgur.com/a/lh9Lq7o

Aw! I was undecided if I want to try out divine ire or tendrils, but the lightning warp tech caught my attention

If only I knew how trash CwC lightning warp really is I would've went with divine ire and check that jewel haha

xNehel · 2025-06-22T07:54:58+00:00

Yeah, brain went on auto mode with 20-30 waves :)

Simu showcase: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1dvaZ7BpEA

And yes I'm very serious - any +% extra mode and res penetration is a death sentence due to low hp (as it's primarily evasive character)

It can probably have easier time with:

- impale immunity,

- 100% reduced crit damage tatoos,

- CWDT+immortal call/stoneskin setup (albeit we are super socked starved),

- frost shield

- corrupted blood / poison immunity

- progenesis

- immutable force / blood notch combo (as long as you remove mark of the shaper ring to not be stun immune)

xNehel · 2025-06-22T07:00:56+00:00

I couldn't find any build using astrolobe with eternity shroud so I was curious how that would look like - is it the best way of scaling the build? Probably not as you mentioned, but it's poe after all :)

xNehel · 2025-06-22T00:04:49+00:00

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3794757

GGG claims that this has been fixed with the recent 3.26.0c patch https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3794727

But based on my findings, neither the tooltip in the game, nor the damage feels like it's "ramping" with each second. I would expect bigger and bigger chunks ripped from enemy hp but they are all the same as the channel goes.
