I built a free PoE 2 Regex Builder, now available as both a Windows app and web version
Hey everyone,
I’ve been working on a PoE 2 Regex Builder designed to make creating useful search regex a lot easier without having to manually figure out the expressions yourself.
The project has grown quite a bit, and I’ve now released a web-based version alongside the standalone Windows version.
The web version was something I specifically wanted to add because I completely understand people being hesitant to download and run an .exe from some random developer on Reddit. If that’s you, you can use the builder directly from the website instead, no download or installation required.
Current features include:
A lot of work has gone into making the generated expressions as short as possible while also trying to prevent one regex from accidentally matching a different affix with similar wording. That’s been one of the more interesting problems to solve because GGG really likes reusing the same words across modifiers.
The desktop and web versions use the same modifier data, so the goal is to keep their functionality consistent.
It’s completely free to use.
I’m also actively working on it, so if you find a modifier that’s missing, duplicated, categorized incorrectly, or a regex that highlights something it shouldn’t, please let me know. Those reports are genuinely useful because there are a ridiculous number of possible modifier interactions to account for.
This started as a tool I wanted for myself and has turned into something I think could be genuinely useful to the wider PoE 2 community, so I figured it was finally time to put it out there.
