NeverSink's Itemfilter 7.01 - Tierlist Changes and Goodies for Console Players
I've recently improved my toolchain, which enabled me to create more and new filter features. So, this update brings tiering changes and minor improvements as usual, but also one of the said new features:
I've recently seen, a thread on reddit, about the console community listing some of the PoE-console-specific QoL problems. One of them being the lack of true filter customization. They do get the default filter and my 7 basic filters, but can't change those. Now the problem is their gameplay is pretty different (they can loot easily, but not precisely).
So after talking to /u/Bex_GGG, who confirmed that they can deliver the filters to the consoles in one of the upcoming updates and to the poe-console-discord community, I've designed and deployed these 5 new strictnesses with this update, that will hopefully be an improvements to the console gameplay. ( Note: I don't know when GGG will patch these onto XBOX/PS4 )
If you're interested in hearing more information, the full story behind how that happened, have any concerns about negative consequences, watch the lil' youtube video I've made. I'm also slowly learning to make somewhat better YT videos. That sh*t is hard.
PS: These filters can also be used by PC players and can be found on my github in the folder (Console-Strictness). That being said, they're very easy to recreate on www.filterblade.xyz and frankly I believe the default set is much better suited for PC. Special thanks goes out to /u/tobnac and the poe console discord community.

Filter and Styleversions
Strictness-es are filter configurations the affect how much/little a filter shows. The general rule is that: as you clear faster, you want to pick up less, because in the time you'd take care of a higher quantity of items, you can kill more monsters and get a higher chance at rare loot. You can start with Regular/Semi-Strict first (great for new players and leagues) and simply up the strictness from the option menu, once you feel like you want to see less.
| Nr | Name | Short Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | Soft | Shows too much. Includes low crafting bases, magic jewellery in the endgame. Not recommended for regular gameplay. |
| 1 | Regular | Shows a lot. Recommended for beginners, new leagues and slow-clearing gameplay. Shows all rares. Good for chaos recipes. |
| 2 | Semi-Strict | Healthy balance. Great for new leagues and beginners and medium-speed endgame gameplay. Hides the worst rares. Good for chaos recipes. |
| 3 | Strict | Hides bad-base rares and scrolls. Universal and recommended endgame strictness. Hides random gems (hold alt in the first zone if you level with it). Bad for chaos recipes. |
| 4 | Very Strict | Hides most rares, scrolls, augments, armourers. Good for the endgame and for speed-farming. |
| 5 | Uber Strict | Hides all low currencies and rares. Great for quantity-farmers. |
| 6 | Uber+ Strict | Shows too little. Sterile screen. Hides all kind of stuff, including mediocre divination cards, all kind of crafting material etc. Recommended for speed-clearing quantity-parties or as a base for further editing. Not recommended for regular gameplay. |
Styles have no effect on how strict the filter is, but change the visual and audio configuration. Find one that pleases your eye most or make your own on www.filterblade.xyz
| Style | Description |
|---|---|
| Default | The normal style. It uses a wide variety of colors and shadings to inform users about the drop type, value and properties. |
| Slick | A less colorful version of the normal style. |
| Gaia | (full restyle) Gaia is a nature-inspired style. It uses less colors, but is still very cheerful. |
| Vaal | (full restyle) A brick, corruption, blood and gore styled filter. |
| Velvet | (full restyle) Soft green, blue, grey and pink hues, this filter is inspired by oceanic and royal colorsets. |
| Blue | Minor changes. Changes the color of rares to blue. |
| Purple | Minor changes. Changes the color of rares to purple. |
| Azurite | A new (experimental style) - it's like a DOUBLE purple/cyan style! |
| CustomSounds | Special style. The visuals are based of default, but the sounds are different and are provided in mp3 files. You have to copy the mp3 files too for the filter to work. You can also replace the sounds with your own mp3's to create your own soundset. |
