OPEN CODEX ›This Codex is a Community Summary, Not Ground Truth
This site is a community-driven summary compiled from multiple sources — the live in-game systems, datamined references (PoE2DB), guide sites (Maxroll, Mobalytics, Vulkk), official PoE2 communications and reveal streams, and crafting demonstrations shared by community streamers. Sources sometimes disagree, the game changes every patch, and even the best community datamining lags real in-game behaviour by hours-to-days. Treat this codex as a quick reference, not as authoritative documentation. Before any expensive or high-stakes craft, cross-check against PoE2DB and the live in-game tooltips.
