Path of Exile 2 loot filters significantly enhance gameplay, especially in the later stages where item drops become frequent. They declutter the screen and highlight valuable items, streamlining the looting process. While using a controller or playing on console might seem to complicate this, PlayStation and Xbox players can utilize item filters just as effectively as PC users. This guide clarifies the process.

How to Link Path of Exile 2 and Console Accounts

To use loot filters on consoles, you must first link your console account to your Path of Exile account via the Path of Exile 1 website. Here's how:

1. Access the Path of Exile website and log in.
2. Locate your account name (top-left).
3. Select "Manage Account" (right-side, below your profile).
4. Under "Secondary Login," click "Connect" for either PlayStation or Xbox.

Follow the on-screen prompts to link your accounts.

Finding and Using Loot Filters

After linking your accounts, return to your profile page on the website and click the "Item Filters" button. Click the "Item Filter Ladder" hyperlink. This opens a new tab displaying available filters.

Select "PoE 2" from the drop-down menu above the filter list. Choose your preferred filter and click "Follow." New players might consider NeverSink's semi-strict or regular filters for a balanced experience.

Once you've followed a filter, open Path of Exile 2. Navigate to the Options menu, then the Game tab. At the top, you'll find the "Item Filter" option. Select your chosen filter from the drop-down menu and save your settings. Your in-game item drops will now be categorized by the filter's rules, using different colors, labels, or sound effects.
