I love the filter system, and think it’s great that I can recolor drops to find specific things I’m looking for.
What I’d love to see is more integration with the tooltip system so it’s easier to see things I already have in my inventory and stash that match the filter set I have created. Being able to see these more clearly would help me sift through the massive amount of items I get in the game, and would also help me make sure my filters are working as expected, because it’s very easy to mess up a filter and not realize I’m leaving a bunch of loot on the floor because of a filter mistake.
Couple things I’d like to see:
-
Some indication on the icon of the item at a top level that shows how many of my filter selection this matches. e.g. If I’m looking for boots with at least 4 affixes, if that item matches 3 of them I see 3 dots or something on the icon showing how well this item matches my filter at a glance.
-
When I pull up the tooltip for an item it gives the affix a treatment showing which affixes match my filters for that item. Italics maybe. At first I thought color would be nice, but that might conflict with the exalted purple for an affix which is useful information to have.
