I am playing this game since launch and since my last MMORPG experience is quite old, I just let the game show me how it thinks stuff is supposed to be. Therefore there are many things that don’t really annoy me directly, but if I spend some time thinking about it, I have to agree with myself that something could actually be done.
This time it is about my inventory and the icons in the game. Whenever I did some events and such, my inventory gets to a point where it is almost full, and even if not, I always tend to carry stuff around that I COULD need eventually, but then I dont. The problem I have with all of that is, that since several icons are shared between different items, I would like to have an option to see what is white, blue, green, yellow or orange in my inventory without having to find an NPC where I get a nice list after clicking on “sell”.
My idea would be something I saw in other games already – colored borders for icon. They would obviously have the same color as the rarity they have, e. g. yellow for rares. This way I could instantly recognize what is actually in my inventory, especially since I only spam F during events without looking. It would as well help seeing what items I actually equipped and maybe even underline how awesome I am, since visual details are the most obvious ones and I like having exotics all over the hero window.
It may not be a big issue for some people, but on the other hand it shouldn’t really be that hard to implement as well and would give me at least something to cheer about.
I attached a modified ingame screenshot to explain what I am talking about. Maybe one could even add an option to sort the inventory by rarity. But that’s only a suggestion.
If this has already been suggested I apoligize, but since it still isn’t implemented, I guess a reminder can’t hurt. :P
