Survival check

PoE2 Dying in Maps

Use this when the character can clear, but deaths are blocking progression.

Paste your PoB export with a survival goal selected. The report looks for defensive gaps and biases upgrade planning toward the build's defensive style.

How it works: paste a Path of Building 2 export, wait for the build check, then use the report to decide what to fix next.

When this helps

Pick the path that matches how much you already know about your character and destination build.

You are getting one-shot or dying too often in maps.
You are unsure whether resistances, max hit, or defensive layers are the issue.
You want survival upgrades that match your build instead of generic armour advice.

What exiles.build compares

The platform is built around concrete build data: gear, gems, passives, and stats. Each offering decides how much interpretation to add.

Gear

Slot coverage, bases, rarity, requirements, properties, runes, enchant lines, bonded stats, and explicit modifiers where imported data supports them.

Skills and Gems

Main skill setup, support gem links, missing gems, changed links, and skill differences that explain why the reference build plays differently.

Passives

Notable passives, keystones, passive effects, and grouped stat deltas so passive tree changes are easier to scan than a raw node list.

Frequently asked questions

Short answers for players deciding whether this is the right tool for their progression problem.

Will it tell every build to stack armour?

No. Defensive recommendations should respect the build's detected defensive layers, such as evasion and energy shield builds.

Does it handle Chaos Inoculation?

The shared rules are intended to avoid treating chaos resistance like a normal gap when the build is using Chaos Inoculation.
