What do they mean by "Stash tab priority system"?

Stash Tab Priority is an expansion to the stash system, so that we can be even more organized with hoarding all the items.

When configuring a stash tab, you will be able to check a mark in a box called Tab Priority that then expands to provide options to specialize this specific tab with conditions similar to the Loot Filter.

When an item matches the conditions set for a tab, quick-storing that item from your inventory to the stash (shift + right click or X / Square on controllers), it will automatically go to that tab instead of the one that is currently visible. You can also have several tabs with same or similar priorities, and it will place them from left to right, as long as the tab has room for more items with the selected conditions. Once all tabs with conditions are full, then the item will go to the currently opened page.

Here's the conditions you can customize a tab with:

• Item Type (for example, Boots)

  • If only one selected item type, then you can also specify Sub types, such as Citadel Boots

• Rarity (this is also where you can choose Keys)

  • If you choose Unique, you can also then specify Legendary Potential and/or Weaver's Will

• Class Requirement (For example, Mage)

• Level Requirement

• Item Faction Requirement

And to pre-emptively respond to the "What about keys?" question, we have some other plans for them. Unfortunately that change is bit bigger and is not coming with the Event Patch next week.

Edit: Forgot that Rarity section includes Keys as one of the options, so you can also make specific tabs for keys.

One feature you definitely need to have here is to be able to copy your stash setup and share it (like with the loot filter)

That would indeed be awesome, and would also handle a similar desire where you'd want your previous Cycle stash setup to be 'remembered' in a new Cycle. I'll bring it up.

I do agree, it'd be cool if it could be a thing in some way.

I expect it to not to work because both technical restrictions (Loot Filter has much more options to customize than Tab Priority for one) and potential User Experience issues - if you switch your Loot Filter, does the Tab automatically understand the switch, or do you have to manually go re-apply that? On first thought I think both of the above cases are what players might expect or want.

There might be other solutions for the particular issue you're having, like an option to mark items in the inventory based on the Loot Filter rule #. I'll bring this particular issue up internally, I'd expect there to be better solutions for this particular problem that don't have anything to do with the Tab Priority.
