(QOL Suggestion) Stat Source Visibility for Buffs & Debuffs
Problem:
In Path of Exile 2, tracking down the source of character stat changes—especially debuffs—is difficult. For example, if I see –15% Lightning Resistance, there’s currently no intuitive way to tell what’s causing it. Right now, I have to manually check: All my gear affixes and implicit mods Passive skill tree nodes Area debuffs or world modifiers Buffs or auras (active or temporary) This slows down gameplay and creates confusion, especially for new players or when testing builds. Suggestion / Solution: Introduce a "Stat Source Breakdown" feature for buffs and debuffs in the character sheet or tooltip system. 🔹 Hoverable Tooltips or Breakdown Button Allow players to hover over a stat (e.g., Lightning Resistance) and see a breakdown like: +30% from Amulet +20% from Passive Tree –15% from Area Debuff: Bone Pits Environment –10% from Corrupted Gloves 🔹 Highlight Gear Impact Alternatively, when inspecting gear, allow us to highlight which items are currently affecting a selected stat. This could be toggled on the character screen. Benefits: Improves clarity and build optimization Reduces time wasted manually inspecting gear Helps new players understand cause/effect of gear/passives/environment Fits well with the modernized UI of PoE 2 Last bumped on Jul 15, 2025, 2:57:47 PM
