Suggestion: Please give us QOL of auto-picking up runes (or at least a hotkey to pickup nearby runes)

@EHG_Mike

reading instructions and tutorials is a super power held only by a select few.

Sadly this is true, I’d also add searching for existing posts/threads & googling in general to that list.

The goal of crafting materials as a monster drop is to fill the role of an item that you are generally interested in picking up as loot so you very rarely leave completely empty handed. Showing the players what that is and interacting with it gives you a chance to register specific materials that you might be hunting for and can prompt crafting sessions. It also helps teach new players what mods and affixes are available. It also directs new players to the crafting system organically

Out of curiosity, do you think this viewpoint is relevant to experienced players (who likely have strict loot filters, running empowered monos, etc) & if so, why?

@Thirteenera

If you ask, and the answer is no, and you keep asking, then MAYBE the answer will change.

Are we there yet?

@Thirteenera

That said, i must double down on the request to add a keyboard hotkey to allow us to loot items with a keyboard button and not just mouse button. There’s some ARPGs that already allow this, and it is a massive QOL.

TBF, Sacred 2 had this and it was awesome, though it didn’t have the depth of itemisation that LE does.

@GiraffaGonfiabile

However, I am unclear on why the crafting materials have to pass by the main inventory in the first place. Does this also serve as an hidden tutorial for the players?

Kinda, yes. They’ve also said that shards are pseudo-items hence they go into the inventory first.
