↖ Why You Need a Lootfilter?

Mental Clarity	It enables players to concentrate on playing rather than being distracted by too many elements on the screen.
Economic Gains	By pointing out valuable drops, a good loot filter indirectly increases the amount of currency that can be farmed per hour within the game.

 

↖ Customization 101

↖ Rules

A filter encompasses rules that decide whether an item shows, when it shows and how it looks once dropped. Each item is governed by one rule within the filter. This interface on FilterBlade helps you control these aspects:

• Visibility: Show or hide an item with show/hide toggle.
• Appearance: You are able to customize text color, border color and background color as well as size and minimap icon for instance.
• Sound: Define sounds for individual types of drops.

If any modification is done then there shall be blue borders around it so that anyone can easily identify what was changed and a click on reset will restore the changes done.

• Stack Sizes: Specify minimum stack sizes for displaying items on screen.
• Uniques and Divination Cards: Have rules for showing unique items and divination cards according their values or rarity.
