A good loot filter shows the loot that matters and hides the rest. Tuning it makes farming far less cluttered.
Why this matters
A cluttered screen hides valuable drops and slows your clears. A tuned filter speeds everything up.
Step-by-step
- Start from a strict filter that hides low-tier loot.
- Show currency, maps, and uniques prominently.
- Hide low-level rares once you outgrow them.
- Adjust the tier of items shown as you level.
- Highlight the crafting bases you use.
- Tweak sounds so you hear valuable drops.
Key tips
- Hide low-tier loot
- Show currency and uniques
- Raise the shown tier as you level
- Use sound cues for valuables
Common mistakes
- Showing every low-level item
- Hiding currency you need
- Never adjusting as you level
Practical notes
A good loot filter hides junk and highlights value, so customize it to your build and currency goals. Hide normal and magic items you will never use, and show uniques, currency, and sockets you need.
Update the filter as your wealth grows so you stop picking trash. Use a community base and tweak the tiers you care about. A tuned filter saves time and catches drops you would otherwise miss.
Update the filter as your wealth grows so you stop picking trash, and use a community base you tweak for the tiers you care about.
