Include auto-pickup in item filters

[Lurkily]

Like, there's never a time where I don't want certain items picked up. Certain currencies are small and stack and are valuable. So let the item filters determine that certain things like currency objects are auto-pickups.

If I'm out of room, bounce it up like it just dropped again, the filter can play an error noise for failed pickups (filters support playing sound already). To prevent constant fails, only attempt a pickup when it drops near you or when you enter/leave range of an item. Just clear your inventory and click it, or step away and it'll try again as it crosses out of your range.

Giving us tools to save us busywork makes sense, but there's still busywork that could be easily smoothed out with the same tools.

I mean, did anybody say I don't?

The tools they give us just seem to indicate a certain intent. If that's accurate, there's more they could do to further that intent.

Play with a controller for fast pick up items, all you have to do is spam a single button or use turbo mode, some controller have more option like macro etc.. just hold a button to pick up fast lol.

With a controller, the pickup button will pick up the best and most valuable items first, like currency or unique items, it's much faster than a mouse.

I hear ya and I appreciate the suggestion, but inventory management/crafting seems like it would be a pain on a controller, and I don't fancy rebuilding my muscle memory.

I also don't trust what the game thinks is valuable to me. Like, I might want that white stellar amulet or heavy belt much much more than a regal orb, because of what a chaos orb might turn it into.

yes, they want you to pick up Items to "feel the weight"

why do you think Poe vets where so excited and cheered when it was revealed that gold was auto pickup when it was first introduced?

what you want is not going to happen because it goes against "The Vision"
