Torchlight Infinite just released its brand new 7th season dubbed “Arcana”. With that, a lot of new features and balance changes have been rolled out, and builds are going to be changing in some ways across the board, so there will be a lot of adjusting to be done throughout the grind. With that in mind, here is a quick tip about loot filters in this new season!
How to Set Up Your Loot Filters | Season 7: Arcana
The game has a Drop Filter function that lets you pick or create custom setups that makes it easier to sift through all the garbage that drops on the ground as you grind through the season. There are a lot of good ones made by the community, and you can already freely copy them within the game.
If you want to create a more personalized experience, you can craft your own with the help of the game’s base templates. At the start of the season, one major tip is to quite simply show all legendary gear.
The reason for this is that there have been so many changes in the recent update that you might miss out on something that has actually become really good now. Until you are fully familiar with all of the legendary gear this season, keep them visible and pick them all up for now.
The main thing to keep in mind when customizing your loot filters is that you might also want to already have a build in mind. For example, if you are going for a build that uses a particular element, then you should only check for bonuses that contribute to that.
Luckily, when setting your conditions for your drop filters, you can search for specific keywords to make it easier to check the affixes that you want. There are a lot of confusing conditions that you can add, so keep it simple to start with if you are new to this.
If you really do not want to deal with all of the complex stuff, go through the recommended filters by other players instead. There are so many examples that are highly rated for early, mid, and late game stages, so you will always have something to fall back on if you are feeling lost.
And those are the basics of how to work with the drop filter of the game. Just keep it simple during the start of the season, since nobody knows the value for everything at the moment. Give it a week or two for all of the changes to settle in, and people will be coming up with more detailed filters over time.
