PoE2: Upcoming Filter Sneak-Peak: new style, filterblade goodies, technical stuff

Dawn of the hunt releases tomorrow.

Of course my filter and filterblade will be updated as well!

I just finished finetuning most of the changes, updating filterblade integrations aaaand also finished the new style and wanted to give you guys a preview

New Style

The new style is called Zen.

It's super minimal. Very GGG like and is great for customizing. Technically it's 'inherited' from Dark Mode, but goes a step beyond.

All S-Tier items look the Same. Like a Divine Orb should look like. White background. Red border. Red text. Shwing sound. You know the drill.

All A-Tier items look the Same. Red border. Red text. Black background.

The rest is very close to their original colors, with just a little bit of extra highlight added to makr the valuables! This is usually done in the form of borders. Sounds, map icons, beams are unchanged.

Surprisingly enough this style was WAY harder to get right than dark mode.

New Filterblade Features: PoE2 Economy Types

We aim to reintroduce the Filter Types this update:

• Softcore

• Hardcore

• Stable

A lot of work went into establishing proper and quality economy tiering for PoE2. GGG did not enable the trade river API yet so the results are not as good as in PoE1.

A note: the SC/HC updated types may be disabled during the first 1-2 days of the league, simply to ensure that the economy data looks good and stable!

New FilterBlade Features: Prices, Bonus Info, Icons

This update will include a lot of QoL features for tiering.

You'll be able to see the prices of items in most tierlists, we'll add icons and of course the bonus info collected and compiled by the community team on GitHub will be available as well. This will provide you with handy info like 'where does this unique drop from'.

A LOT of technical preparation

We took the time to improve our tooling significantly. I know this is not the most fancy thing, but having 2 filters to manage means we need to have solid processes.

A lot of things were refactored, improved and streamlined!

You know the saying 'no plan survives the contact with the enemy?'. The PoE2 release was like that.

When is the filter coming?

As is tradition: tomorrow. Around 3-6 hours before release.

I'll stream the final parts of the update.

Come say hi, if you want to watch me scream at code!

Happy Hunting!

Thank you for all your support!
