Passive points effect preview

Hello,

Since you already aaded then apply/cancel feature when choosing passive points would it be possible to improve the current system so we can visialize the effect of our choice before applying.

Let me explain.

Imagine I lack life, I have one passive point to spend and have 2 choices on my build tree : +20 to maximum life or +8% life.

Right now I do not know which one will give me the higher life.

It would be VERY useful to work like this:
1: I put my point on "+8% life" and as soon as I have put the point (but before applying) the stats of my toon are recalculated, so I can see BEFORE applying how much my choice give me.
If I'm not happy with the result, I'm free to choose cancel and to put my point somewhere else.

Thanks a lot for this cool game and keep up the good work.

I don't see a reason why not to add this into the game. Makes sense and not everyone wants to use a calculator to know the results. :)

I agree with the OP. I think you mean that as you tentatively assign passive skill points you can see the effects on the "Preview Character Sheet".
You could have the "Preview Character Sheet" where the "Character Sheet" would normally be and have the rest of the screen to the right of it show a smaller "Passive Skill Panel"

With the recent skill reset due to PoE officially releasing, I find myself wanting to try an evasion/melee build again(Crazy huh?).
During the closed beta I had a dual claw Shadow evasion character and by Act II cruel it became clear to me that my character was destined to die 1000s of times.

I still have 56 points left to assign for my lvl 82 crit dagger Shadow.

I think I'll wait for the OP's suggestion to become a reality, before I finish assigning my remaining 56 passive skill points.
