Introduction to Regex for players

Hi everyone, today I will go over regex and how it can be used to help with things like mapping.

Using https://poe.re/ and selecting "map mods" will allow us to filter out specific map modifiers so that when we roll our maps we can have a bunch of them all "Set up" to run.

Example

My character gains huge QOL (quality of life) by getting rid of things like no regen, -elemental resistances, +monster HP as energy shield etc.

After selecting the modifiers I don't want to appear on my maps, I am left with the following "string" (a series of abbreviated words"



I then take this and copy/paste it into my stash tab where I am rolling my maps to run. If the map is highlighted that means it is "Ready" and doesn't contain any of the modifiers I am filtering out.

"

Why is this useful?

It helps to isolate modifiers and makes running maps/setting up maps more efficient, thus increasing our overall "uptime" when playing. By default this will allow us to generate more profit over time.

a few tips to add:

1. If you use Awakened POE, there is a space to save your regex strings for future use. You can even key bind them to save time.

2. In the PC client at least, there is a character limit in the search tab of your stash. If your regex gets too long, you can break it up into multiple regex.

These are especially helpful when rolling T17 maps. Example of this is I use 3 separate regex for rolling maps.

Regex 1: Highlights maps that meet quant/packsize/currency/scarab roll requirements

Regex 2: Grey out maps that have mods I dont want to run

Regex 3: Uses for applying extra delirium orbs to maps that have passed first 2 regex. Greys out maps that have 90%+ extra health and %health as extra ES.

Good notes! I forgot about the cutoff for string limit in stash!
