Loot option (Show Leg/Ext drops only)

Post by reader »

Hi guys, first please forgive my writing(english not my mother tongue)

consider myself new player start build my third character and other two retired
i put a lot skill in magic finder, the problem is i really like grinding loot either for ordinary or l/e
but when ordinary item display keep pop up it for pretty much every 2-7 kill its start distrupt me, i prefer where i have option in display only show when i got l/e or 1% item (basically the player have a choice what kind display loot will pop up either l/e, 1% up 50-70% if i not wrong item, the best option i have is do not display option, problem with this option is when i try to grind for l/e i need to open my inventory every time after kill the mobs, i find its kind of tiresome, i hope devs can overlook my post

And lastly, i going to say Thank You whom build and help develop this great game, i think i already find my ultimate android phone game :D

Reader,

First off, your English is pretty good (I've seen much worst from native English speakers).

I made this exact request to have a legendary/extraordinary loot dialog option 2 years ago, but it went on deaf ears. Maybe in a future release we will have this feature?

Welcome to the forums Reader! I too think this is a good idea....but it perhaps is not high on the priority list.

Yes, I remember giving that a +1, if I remember correctly we wanted it so (or at least my idea on it) was that it wouldn't be a preference. That way no matter your loot display setting it will always give a special loot display box when a leg / ext is picked up. Another option would be to have a short notification that says something like "You found something very interesting, you should examine this further." I still support the idea, along with most people, but as Antison pointed out, it kind of fell on deaf ears but who knows what the future holds.

I've been thinking the same thing. To add the option for a pop-up window on l/e loot would make it more comfortable to grind.
As for now, I have disabled all pop up windows possible, since they just take extra time to click through. I did disable all windows after completing the game though, so that I wouldn't miss anything.

+1 from me! Maybe Zukero could tell us if it's much to ask for, code-wise.

And WELCOME to the forums reader!

It is for sure possible, if the game can pull exactly what item was dropped and show the window for it, it would be able to pull the info of a 'special' item dropping and give a 'special' window for it.

I don't see anything that would hinder it with what we have now, but if I am missing something and it isn't possible Zukero's scripting engine could probably handle it just fine.

It is one of those things that will get done eventually, priorites are where they are for obvious reasons.
