Add loot pets like in lost ark or torchlight infinite.
We like to fight not click all the time to loot.

100% NO. game doesnt need it. tbh imo if you need a loot pet why are you even playing a loot based game. imo its just laziness that seems to drive some to want these

I imagine the game will be more like PoE where having a good loot filter is very important

No, but make crafting components autocollect.

You say no to loot pets. But want crafting mats to autocollect. That makes no sense.

That's the same as having a loot pet without actually have a loot pet.

Maybe because he learnt to use the loot filter. And when using correctly the loot filter, people don't have to continue to collect a ton of loot on the ground. Only some few good items here and here, and mainly the crafting components, without needing to take all the trash loot or items people don't need anymore.

Gold autocollects, you can hold an infinite amount of gold. Should that not autocollect?
You can hold an infinite amount of crafting materials, but they do not autocollect.

Items take up space in your inventory. Autocollecting those is a much more challenging task. I use a strict loot filter and only pick up good ♥♥♥♥.

Same. I make loot filter for my build. So if there is a pet that auto loots it would be good for me.

It isn't laziness. I play PoE a lot with very strict filters and still have my hand hurt while I can play Dota 2 for hours and not have the same pain. I don't play PoE much anymore. Its basic accessibility and there no reason why loot pets shouldn't be used, would help prevent or slow down carpal tunnel syndrome.

Gold is also auto collected in this game. No idea why auto loot pet is so hated. Is clicking to pick up an item that much immersive for this game?

Anything than improves QoL is welcome. Unfortunately, this is the most stagnant genre ever.

just cuz a game auto loots gold is not a reason a game needs loot pets or auto loot for crafting mats. or anything else

issue is with LE if you have a proper loot filter set up you would almost be looting nothing. with one set up theres really no reason to have loot pets. reason loot pet are hated on. is they tend to play a part of the game for you. rather than you actually playing the game (imo this is why its laziness) it also means you dont run the risk of missing a good item on the ground. this is the plays the game for you part. it also degrades the feeling of those items being loot. with loot pets loot feels far less like loot.

yes clicking items is far more immersive than having a loot pet pick all this up for. imo being a loot vacum is just not that intertesting

imo not every game HAS to have loot pets or auto loot for said things. gold is one thing. but crafting mats no. theres no risk of missing anything when looting with them. also depending on how the loot pet is coded it can case you to loot trash useless items. as well as alot of times loot pets tend to suck up items before you even have a chance to see what has drop on the ground. i would rather check items on the ground first rather than alway doing so in my inventor and then dropping unwanted items.

loot pets also make the game easier itself as well as making it easier to play. QoL is something that make a game easier( user friendly) and doesnt make the challange of a game easier aka difficulty. i dont want to see LE go down the loot pet meta i have seen in a few mobile games. something may sound like a QoL but really its not.

whats the point of using a loot filter if the pet can just pick up all the BiS gear/mats

I would not mind an auto loot for mats and gold at all.
Playing Diablo 3 season 28, we got a bunch of auto collect buffs and in all honesty: It does play much nicer. MUCH nicer.

I would not want to see that for items tho.
Mats and Gold are boring to click on. Items should not be boring. If they are: Fix them and don't make them auto loot.
