Are you tired of seeing certain items in your Path of Exile (PoE) inventory, but can't seem to get rid of them? The ignore list in PoE might be the culprit. This feature, while useful for ignoring low-value items, can sometimes become a nuisance when you want to sell or use an item that's been added to the list. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to remove items from your ignore list in PoE.
Before we dive into the process, it's important to understand that the ignore list is designed to automatically ignore items below a certain value. This is to help streamline your gameplay by reducing clutter in your inventory. However, sometimes high-value or unique items might get added to the list, leading to frustration when you can't interact with them. Let's learn how to rectify this.
Understanding the Ignore List
The ignore list in PoE is a feature that automatically ignores items below a certain value, based on the currency type you've selected. This means that if you've set your ignore list to 'Exalted Orbs', it will ignore items worth less than an Exalted Orb. Understanding this mechanism is crucial to managing your ignore list effectively.
To access the ignore list, simply press the 'I' key while in-game. This will open the ignore list interface, where you can see all the items currently on your ignore list, along with their values.
Manually Removing Items
The most straightforward way to remove an item from your ignore list is to do so manually. Here's how:
- Open your ignore list by pressing the 'I' key.
- Find the item you want to remove from the list.
- Right-click on the item and select 'Remove from Ignore List'.
- The item will now be removed from the ignore list, and you can interact with it as normal.
Clearing the Entire Ignore List
If you find that your ignore list has become too cluttered, you might want to clear it entirely. Here's how to do that:
- Open your ignore list by pressing the 'I' key.
- Click on the 'Clear Ignore List' button at the bottom of the interface.
- Confirm the action in the pop-up window that appears.
- Your ignore list will now be completely cleared, allowing you to start fresh.
Preventing Items from Being Added to the Ignore List
While removing items from the ignore list is useful, it's also a good idea to prevent high-value items from being added to the list in the first place. Here's how to do that:
In the ignore list interface, you'll see a 'Minimum Value' slider. This slider determines the minimum value an item must have to be added to the ignore list. By default, this is set to 'Exalted Orb'. If you want to prevent high-value items from being added to the list, you can increase this value. For example, setting the minimum value to 'Mirror of Kalandra' will ensure that only items worth less than a Mirror of Kalandra are added to the ignore list.
Using the 'Never Ignore' List
Another way to prevent items from being added to the ignore list is to use the 'Never Ignore' list. This list contains items that will never be added to the ignore list, regardless of their value. To add an item to the 'Never Ignore' list:
- Open your ignore list by pressing the 'I' key.
- Drag the item you want to protect from the main inventory to the 'Never Ignore' list.
- The item will now be added to the 'Never Ignore' list and will never be added to the ignore list, even if its value is below the minimum value you've set.
In the ever-changing world of Path of Exile, it's important to stay on top of your inventory management. The ignore list is a powerful tool for this, but like any tool, it needs to be used correctly to be effective. By understanding how the ignore list works and following the tips above, you can ensure that your inventory is always clutter-free and that you never lose track of a valuable item again.
