Itemization
Itemization refers to the process of acquiring, crafting, and optimizing items to enhance a character's performance in Path of Exile 2. This includes selecting gear that complements a build, balancing offensive and defensive stats, and leveraging item modifiers (affixes) to maximize effectiveness. Itemization involves strategic decisions about equipping, upgrading, and interacting with various item systems, such as crafting mechanics, unique items, and currency. Effective itemization is essential for achieving success in combat, overcoming challenges, and refining character builds.
