Do I need to install anything?
No. The Build Reader runs in your browser: you share the Dark and Darker window like in a video call and it reads what is on screen. No download, no game mod.
Build Reader · beta
Share the Dark and Darker window once, then just play: your class, perks, skills, spells and the items you hover are read live and laid out like the build editor. Sounds and a voice tell you what was read, so you never have to leave the game - even on a single monitor.
Spell Memory Priority
Open Skills › Spell in game to read the spells, songs or shapeshifts.
On the Stash screen, your perks and skills are recognised from their icons and the class is deduced from them. Switch character and everything updates on its own.
Hover an item you wear: its tooltip is read - name, rarity, base stats and every enchantment with its value - and the item goes to its slot, including both rings and both weapon sets.
Open Skills › Spell: the spells, songs or shapeshift forms in your memory are read in the cast priority order of the in-game bar.
A sound and a voice confirm each reading, so you can stay in the game on a single monitor and never alt-tab to check.
Validate and the build opens in the build calculator with its live stat sheet: tweak it, compare it, save it and share it.
Pick the language your game runs in: names are read in that language and shown in the language of the site.
Everything happens in your browser: the shared window is analysed locally and is never uploaded or recorded. Nothing touches the game files or memory - the reader only looks at the picture, like you do - so there is nothing to install.
The Build Reader is part of Dark & Builder Premium. Unlock it to read your character from the game and import it into the build calculator in one click.
No. The Build Reader runs in your browser: you share the Dark and Darker window like in a video call and it reads what is on screen. No download, no game mod.
It never reads or changes the game's memory or files and sends nothing to the game: it only analyses the picture of the window you share, inside your browser - just like looking at your screen.
Yes. Once the window is shared, go back to the game: a sound and a voice tell you each time your character, an item or your spells are read. Come back to the page when you're done and validate the import.
Check that the game language matches the one selected, that the tooltip is fully visible, and that you hover an item your character wears on the Stash screen (rings and weapon sets are told apart there).
Chrome and Edge on desktop are recommended: they can share a single window. Other browsers may only share the whole screen, or not allow capture at all.
It's a Premium feature, along with unlimited builds, active effects and the damage calculator. The build calculator itself stays free.
