New Loot Filter Function - Custom items shown on mini map

Hey all,

currently you only see a limited number of items on the mini map. Those are: Uniques, Set Items, Specific Glyphs/Runes, and Keys. (Forgive me if I have forgotten something…) What I really miss is the ability to customize the visibility on the minimap.

There are two scenarios where such a custom mini map highlight would be very useful. First: When you play a DoT build, sometimes the creeps die at some point where you have travelled quite a bit. So they might drop this juicy T7/T6 exalted you were looking for ages but you simply miss it, because the creep died 2 screens away.

Also, when you are in multiplayer and run echos with your friend he may kill a creep and it drops a nice item, but you will never find out, because you are currently taking a different path.

A solution to this would be to add a checkbox on the loot filter “show on minimap”, similar to the “emphasize” checkbox. Then, you suddenly see on your mini map that long awaited dream idol, the T7 affix exalted you have been looking for, or you can also uncheck the “key” symbol on the minimap, which is - at some point in the game - irrelevant.

What are your thoghts about this?
Best regards and thanks for this amazing game!

Been suggested plenty of times before, the reason it’s not in the game is the same reason sounds aren’t or more rules: performance.
I’m pretty sure that when they manage to do it without impacting performance, they’ll do it.

been asking for this too. my builds that kill stuff 2 screens away kinda pointless because i gotta run around to see what i missed anyway.

strongly support this request.
i specifically avoid dot build cuz i dont wanna wait for drop
