Frequently Asked Questions
What Path of Exile 2 tools does Path of Codex provide?
Path of Codex provides build comparison and item analysis tools focused on practical decisions: whether a build migration is worth it, where your character gains or loses power, and how an item should be evaluated before you craft or trade around it.
Does this page call account, notification, or settings services?
No. The tools index is a static public page built from local metadata. Individual tools may have their own authenticated or interactive flows after you open them.
How is this page updated?
The tools index is cached long-term and updated by deployment plus manual purge. It does not use periodic revalidation.
Can I still use these tools without an account?
Build Comparison and Oracle Item Advisor both expose useful public flows. Account-aware features are loaded inside the tools themselves, not on this static index page.
Bring it all together with Path of Codex
Open the tool that matches the decision in front of you. Compare a build migration, inspect a pasted item, or move into a deeper Oracle workflow from a dedicated tool page.
