Exile Build PoE

Open-source Windows desktop overlay for Path of Exile build progression, powered by Path of Building imports.

Quick Start

1. Download the latest installer from GitHub Releases
2. Grab a build from any of these sources:
   • Path of Building — Copy → Share → Generate
   • pobb.in — Paste the share link directly
   • Mobalytics — Copy the PoB code from any build guide
   • PoE Ninja — Copy the PoB code from any character
   • Maxroll — Copy the PoB code from any guide
   • Pastebin — Paste the pastebin link
3. Paste the code or link into the import field and click Import
4. Press Ctrl+Shift+O to toggle the in-game overlay

The overlay shows your next objectives, current level, and gem/gear targets while you play. Any source that gives you a PoB code or link works.

Windows SmartScreen: On first launch, Windows may show a "Windows protected your computer" warning because the installer is not code-signed. Click "More info" → "Run anyway". This is normal for free open-source projects — the app is safe and the source code is fully available for inspection.

What It Does

Exile Build PoE bridges the gap between planning a build in Path of Building and actually playing it. Instead of alt-tabbing to PoB every few minutes, the overlay keeps your roadmap visible while you play.

• In-Game Overlay — Always-on-top overlay with tabs, level tracking, progress checklist, and configurable opacity. Toggle with a hotkey.
• Full PoB Import — Paste a pobb.in link, pastebin URL, raw export code, or load a .xml file. Extracts passive tree, gems, gear, labs, masteries, jewels, and notes.
• Passive Tree Canvas — Interactive tree with zoom/pan, GGG sprite rendering, cluster jewel expansion, mastery selections, node tooltips, and jewel socket details.
• Gear Display — Item cards with mod tiers (T1/T2/T3), socket colors and links, rarity badges, influence badges, iLvl/quality/corrupted indicators.
• Gem Board — Skill groups with linked supports, levels, quality, gem icons, Vaal/Awakened/quality type badges.
• Lab Progression — Ascendancy path with lab order and choices.
• Leveling Progress — Stage-based checklist with hotkeys to mark objectives and adjust level.
• Tree Spec Selector — Switch between tree specs in Tree, Gems, and Gear tabs with automatic skill/item set matching.
• Customizable Hotkeys — Click-to-record keybindings for all 6 overlay actions.
• Overlay Settings — Hotkeys, language, and opacity configurable directly from the overlay without leaving the game.
• Build Management — Search, filter by league, re-import, copy source, and delete builds.
• 10 Languages — English, Portuguese (BR), Spanish, French, German, Russian, Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Thai.
• Auto-Update — Checks GitHub Releases for new versions automatically.
