Map Stash Tab - Suggestions and Improvements

Would be good if map tab wasn't THAT laggy..But it's cool. All these suggestions above seems good but i'd like to add one more thing..Something to see if X map's already compketed on atlas or not ( without going into atlas or dragging map into inventory and going into atlas again )..i mean somerthing simple like like "alt" over map and it says if it's already completed or not ;)

To go along with that, something showing if the elder or his guardians inhabit the map currently. And furthermore, and indicator if the map boss can be bottled for the pantheon powers.

I have several stash tabs full of old (last league) red tier maps, why can't i store them in the stash tab? It seems very annoying that i cant condense my huge portfolio of maps after all that's the reason i bought the map stash tab.

Also since we can't stop previous league maps what does that mean for the future? Will we not be able to store multiple different types of maps (harb/abyss and whatever is in the future).

In prioritized order:

1. Better integration between MST and Atlas as far as showing Atlas completion status, etc. ..... MUCH better integration. As long as the situation exists where I have to keep bouncing back and forth between the two UIs to look up completion status vs. inventory status, I'm feeling like I bought the Emperor's New Clothes.

2. should also have slots for "stuff that works like maps but isn't technically a map" -- +1; fragments, offerings, reliquary keys, whatever.

3. search -- +1, incoming (probably would have rated this 1 or 2 if it wasn't already incoming.)

4. Upgrade button -- +1, even though I personally will rarely use it, it seems like a sensible feature to exist.

Regarding item 1: Yes, this is basically the situation that existed pre-MST but at least then we had the stash find feature to help mitigate the hassle. But, in truth, a map's atlas completion status (etc.) is something that should be shown on the maps themselves. Yes, on each and every map item's tooltip.

And also, FWIW, do we buy things expecting GGG to fix them? Yeah, we do. Other recent tabs have had issues and GGG has wisely aligned themselves with the community in believing that certain things had to be improved upon. It's their prerogative whether they choose to do the same, here, but I would interpret them not doing so to be indicative of a change in their attitude, and my attitude would change in turn.

Bump. Good suggestions. I would also add to use ordinary numbers instead of Roman numerals for map tier and/or make these numbers white/yellow/red colour to match map tier colour.

Well, the good news is that GGG have said publicly that they are working to improve the map tab, including the search function, and that this will apply to the existing tabs. (Not that anyone should imagine it wouldn't, but hey, may as well be explicit.)

Where did GGG say they're making improvements?

1, 2, 3, 4) Very good idea ! +4


5)
Mayby... re-coloring ?

It was on reddit. Sorry, I don't have the link though.

Also, they recently said that they expect them to land in the next patch, also in Reddit. Look to what Bex has been saying.

Ahh good old Reddit... I see someone already made my suggestion and it's the top thread with a "good idea" reply from Mr Wilson xD

And yes, exactly this:

But i think without the Roman numerals thing... sometimes my brain isn't in the mood for even simple translations :p

Absolutely this.

I JUST bought the Map Tab an hour ago for that function only, and it's not in there. Every time I find a new map that's not already in my Map Stash, I have to swap back and forth to see if it's on my atlas.

Please... PLEASE fix this ASAP.

Ditto.

As a suggested solution, when you click on map stash the tab for a specific map, basic completion status info shows up. So, if somebody can't recall whether or not they did underground river, or if they got the bonus objective, the UI for the map stash tab immediately and by default shows that when they click on the tab for the underground river map.

As another suggestion, when you click on a tab for a specific tier of map in the stash tab, the UI will hopefully tell us "All maps of this tier have been completed, with bonus", or posts other completion + bonus information in summary form for that map tier.
