Which Loot Filter Strictness Should You Choose?

For returning players, Semi-Strict is a good starting point. Soft and Regular are suitable for fresh league starts. The ALT key reveals hidden items, often minimizing their on-screen size for easier navigation.

How to Customize FilterBlade Loot Filter in PoE 2

FilterBlade's strength lies in its easy customization without code editing.

Using the Customize Tab

The "Customize" tab offers granular control over every item drop. Search for specific items (e.g., "Divine Orb") to modify their appearance and in-game preview.

Changing Colors and Sounds

Modify colors and sounds individually or globally using the "Styles" tab. You can use custom sounds (.mp3) or community-created sounds. Experiment freely; changes are easily reversible. Community-created Modules offer pre-made visual and auditory adjustments.
