How to get a Path of Building code
A Path of Building code is the shareable export of an entire build — gear, skill gems, and passive tree, packed into one string. It's how builds get passed around, and it's what Mirrorcheck reads to price a build. Here are the three ways to get one.
What a Path of Building code is
Path of Building 2 is the free, community-made build planner for Path of Exile 2. A "code" is just a compressed text version of a build you can copy, paste, and share. You'll see them two ways in the wild: as a long raw string, or as a pobb.in link that points to one. Mirrorcheck accepts either — plus pastebin links.
Three ways to get one
1From a build guideMost guides — Maxroll, Mobalytics, and the rest — publish a Path of Building code or a pobb.in link right alongside the build. Copy it. Mirrorcheck takes pobb.in and pastebin links directly, so you usually don't even need to open Path of Building yourself.
2From a pobb.in or pastebin linkIf all you have is a share link, just paste the link itself — Mirrorcheck fetches the raw code behind it for you. No extra step.
3From your own characterWant to price the character you're actually playing? Import it into Path of Building 2 and export a code. It's a few clicks — the steps are below.
Quick tip: copy the whole code. Path of Building strings are long, and if even one character is missing it won't parse. Pasting the pobb.in link instead sidesteps that entirely.
Exporting your own build, step by step
1Get Path of Building 2It's the free community build planner for PoE2. Grab the installer from the PathOfBuildingCommunity project on GitHub and install it.
2Import your characterOpen it, click Import/Export Build, and use the Character Import section. You'll log in with your Path of Exile account, then pick your character and pull in its items, skills, and passive tree. (Make sure your characters aren't set to private on your account profile, or the import can't see them.)
3Export the codeBack on the Import/Export screen, click Generate for the raw code, or Share to get a pobb.in link. Copy whichever — both work in Mirrorcheck.
Got a code or a link? Drop it into Mirrorcheck and it prices every piece of the build against today's economy, compares it to your current character, and pre-fills a trade search for each upgrade. No Path of Building skills required beyond copy-paste.
