Which Loot Filter Strictness Should You Choose?

Strictness Levels

NeverSink's FilterBlade offers seven strictness levels:

StrictnessEffectBest For
SoftHighlights valuable materials and items; hides nothing.Act 1-2
RegularHides only useless items.Act 3
Semi-StrictHides low-potential/limited-value items.Act 4-6
StrictHides most items without high turnover.Early Mapping (Waystone 1-6)
Very StrictHides low-value rares and crafting bases; hides Waystone 1-6.Mid-late Mapping (Waystone 7+)
Uber StrictHides almost all non-tiered rares and bases; highlights top currency.Late Mapping (Waystone 14+)
Uber Plus StrictHides almost everything except valuable currency and high-return items.Ultra Endgame (Waystone 15-18)

For returning players, Semi-Strict is a good starting point. Soft and Regular are best for fresh league starts. Pressing ALT (PC) highlights hidden items, though their names are minimized for convenience.
