1. I looked up the character Ben_Still_Clicking_MERC in the HC SSF Mercenaries League on poe.ninja.
38-
2. I opened the latest snapshot in Path of building and saved it as "Ben_Still_Clicking_MERC".
39-
- By the way, I am saving all these PoBs together in a new folder to keep things straight and make the snapshots easier to delete later.
40-
3. I opened snapshot "Day 4" in Path of building and saved it as "Day 4".
41-
4. I opened snapshot "Day 5" in Path of building and saved it as "Day 5".
42-
- Warning: Sometimes when you open an older snapshot in Path of Building the gods in the pantheon are not set, so check that.
43-
5. I opened snapshot "Day 6" in Path of building and saved it as "Day 6".
44-

49-

53-
14. For the Main PoB File, I selected Ben_Still_Clicking_MERC.xml.
54-
15. For the PoB file to merge in, I selected "Day 4.xml".
55-
16. I left both the New loadout name and the Output PoB blank.
56-
17. I clicked the 'Merge' button.
57-
18. After the success message, I changed the PoB file to merge in to "Day 5.xml" and then clicked 'Merge' again.

37+
1. Look up a character on poe.ninja.
38+
2. For each snapshot on poe.ninja:
39+
- Open each snapshot in Path of Building
40+
- Save each snapshot with a good name. For example, for the "Hour 3" snapshot, I save the PoB as "Hour 3". (I'm clever that way.)
41+
3. Create a new, empty build in Path of Building and immediately save it. (We'll pretend I've saved it as "All the Snapshots".)
42+
4. Run the PathOfBuildingMergeTool.
43+
5. For the Main PoB File, select the snapshots build you saved in step 3.
44+
6. For each snapshot ("Hour 3", etc.) that you saved from poe.ninja:
45+
- Select that snapshot file as the PoB file to merge in.
46+
- Click the "Merge" button.
47+
7. Open "All the Snapshots" in Path of Building.
48+
8. OPtionally clean things up byy deleting the "Default" sets (tree, items, skills and config).
