Path of Exile has deeper mechanics than pretty much every other ARPGs out there, PoB covers the vast majority of them, in a beautiful mess of about 20k lines of calculations in various files.
Making it a "Compiler problem" makes it an unsolvable one in acceptable time.
if skill == cleave and support == focused_edge: make cleave smaller but stronger
if skill == cleave and support == twin_cleave and rule == guarded_arc: quietly move to the woods
>That can work for a demo. It gets rough once the game has lots of skills, supports, items, statuses, and encounter rules.

Fun fact: it directly parses mods from their ingame description into a mod database that is basically a stringly typed list of whatever increases also. : https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding-Po...
So yeah, don't bother about making a compiler.
