Notification bar option!

Post by Chest_Rockfield »

It would be SUPER AWESOME if we could choose to get a loot notification if and only if that loot contains a legendary or extraordinary item.

I like the idea.
Perhaps the loot notification should always be opened if you got one or more :D drops from 1:1000 or 1:10000 chances. (because extraordinary is not extraordinary :| )
This way we do not need a new option. (would confuse non forum players)

Samuel,

I don't follow. Why would a new option not be needed?

Yeah, also very confused with what you're trying to say...

because it would be default to show rare loot, not a toggle option...

But isn't the default right now to show all loot? Anyone who didn't like that would have to go in and change it. They would see the new option of just L&E items, and could pick that if they wanted. If not, they'd still see L&E items, along with everything else.

Have a look here:

I just said that to make sure what kind of extraordinary I talk about.

So I think if we only show the loot notification if the extremely rare items drop NO ONE will complain. (and want to deactivate an option)

If we had an option IMO it would confuse the players that are usually not aware of extraordinary and legendary items. (and Oskar doesn't want the usual player to be aware of it.)

Hope its clear now.
