Request for early testing of the Build Guide system (Patch 0.5)

Hi GGG,

The In-Game Build Guide system revealed for Patch 0.5: Return of the Ancients is the biggest QoL upgrade we’ve seen. Being able to follow passive paths and gear goals via .build files in the BuildPlanner folder will save a lot of time.

I have a few questions regarding the testing and technical side of this:

• Pre-League Testing: Any chance for a small client patch a few days before May 29th? It would be great to test if our custom JSON/build files load correctly and if the UI highlights the nodes as expected before the league starts.

• Schema Documentation: Will the official documentation for the .build file format be released alongside the patch notes on the 21st? Some of us want to prepare our own guides manually and need to know the exact node IDs and structure requirements.

• Validation: Will the game client have a built-in validator to show where a JSON file is "broken" or incorrectly formatted?

Providing this info or early access even a couple of days before launch would prevent a lot of frustration on day one.

Thanks.
