Beasts — PoEHelper Plugin

A PoEHelper / ExileCore plugin for Path of Exile that tracks, prices and automatically processes captured beasts in the Bestiary.

Features

Beast Tracking

• Highlights rare (red) beasts on the world map and in 3D world space with their poe.ninja price
• Tracks yellow beasts (generic capturable monsters not in the named database) separately
• Color-coded by beast family: Vivid (yellow), Wild (pink), Primal (cyan), Black (white)
• Exposes Beasts.IsAllowedBeastNearby(int range) via Plugin Bridge for other plugins to query

Bestiary Panel Overlay

• Overlays price badges on every captured beast slot in the Bestiary UI
• Prices fetched automatically from poe.ninja (configurable refresh interval)
• Shows prices on captured beast items in inventory and stash
• Optional highlight frame on selected (tracked) beasts

Automation

• Automatically itemizes beasts worth ≥ X chaos and releases the rest
• Configurable Itemize Yellow Beasts toggle (independent of chaos threshold)
• Stops automatically when inventory is full or when the Bestiary panel is closed
• Only acts on beasts visible in the current scroll viewport — never clicks off-screen slots
• Waits for server confirmation before the next action (no double-clicks)
• Hotkey to toggle automation on/off without opening settings
• Status badge in the Tracker window: "● Automation in progress..." while running, "✓ Automation completed" (with fade-out) after it stops

Human-like Input

• Perlin noise position jitter — click positions vary smoothly, avoiding pixel-perfect patterns
• Min/max random delay between actions (configurable range)
• Pre-click settle delay — simulates reaction time between cursor arriving and clicking
• Mouse travels directly from last button to next button, no intermediate moves
