It would be wonderful if /kills also showed a breakdown of Normal/Magic/Rare/Unique Monster kills.

This is a request on behalf of Wraeclastian scientists and data collectors.

From the 3.17.4b patch notes:

"

Added a "/kills" chat command to show your character's kill count.

I expect this new command was added as a nice side-effect of the new kill-tracking MTX, which is great!

Currently this command displays the total number of kills of experience-granting Monsters, regardless of Monster Rarity. Here's the current display:

"

/kills:

You have killed 38 Monsters.

It would be so nice if /kills instead had a breakdown of the Rarities of Monsters killed, e.g.:

"

/kills:

Your character has killed a lifetime total of 300 Monsters (200 Normal, 50 Magic, 30 Rare, 20 Unique).

It would be extra-nice if there were also a /track_kills or similar command, which would activate a separate independent counter (and reset the previous tracker).

"

/track_kills

New kill tracker created. Type /kills to view. Your previous tracked kills made after 2022/04/04 04:44 PDT were: 43 Monsters (35 Normal, 5 Magic, 2 Rare, 1 Unique).

You are now tracking Monster kills made after 2022/05/05 05:55 PDT.

Then typing /kills would show both the lifetime total and the current tracker:

"

/kills

Your character has killed a lifetime total of 340 Monsters (210 Normal, 60 Magic, 40 Rare, 30 Unique).

You started a new kill tracker at 2022/05/05 05:55 PDT. Type /track_kills to reset.

Kills since 2022/05/05 05:55 PDT: 40 Monsters (10 Normal, 10 Magic, 10 Rare, 10 Unique).

Obviously an improved /kills alone would be sufficient for players to do this manually: a player could type /kills, record the numbers of each Monster Rarity, play a while, type /kills again and then subtract the recorded numbers. So a special /track_kills would just be for player convenience and may not be valuable enough to warrant even a small amount of development time.

These extra features would be valuable because they would allow all us crazy Wraeclastian scientists to measure specifics when testing mechanics or juicing strategies. They'd also allow players doing "loot from X" experiments to start a new tracker to measure progress.

Add a /reset_kills command and improve the actual /kills (since we can't copy text from the chat) with more detailed information, and a list of kills of the past 2? 3? instances would be much appreciated.

You can have clienttxt open in notepad++ and copy from there

If you play PoE to avoid alt-tabbing...
