Big+Small Feedback Thread (Long-term notes/ideas, not immediate expectations)

It's been said before that "Players are playing POE2 but Mobs are still playing POE1" and this isn't just a problem with Mob speed, but how they fight in general. We see some Mobs with more complex attack patterns but I think the Mobs need a bit more group dynamics or something. Like when they're in the same Pack they will have certain attack patterns or behaviors (or skills?) that they wouldn't perform if they were on their own. Basically, just like Player Skills need to have better/stronger interactions (and payoffs) for combo'ing, this game would benefit that much by gaining better/stronger interactions (and payoffs??? jk y el oh el) when encountering different Mob combinations.

I would like some way to lock the un-occupied slots in the Merchant Shop so I can add items to the page, maybe rearrange them, and price them, *then* list/update/unlock those slots/the shop. This way I don't throw a handful of items in then go "oh shit, I wanna move this" or "I would really have rather priced that another way," etc.

Just like item filters are client-side txt files, please allow there to be Search Histories available for Player Management to: Stash, In-Game Vendor Shop, Online Trade, Merchant Shop, and Passive Skill Node. (was there anything I missed?)

You can copy/paste an item from in-game to a text. You can enter an item from in-game into chat. But you can't simply enter an item from in-game into the in-game item search feature. This needs a smooth integration. (I know I'm repeating others here as well.)

Just like there's in-game item search filter. Now there can be Merchant Shop search filter. Players keep complaining about buying things they didn't mean to and ignoring regex. Just give them a built-in filter so they can easily set a price range to view listings at. I am talking about when they are looking directly at a Player's Merchant Shop, not at the Trade Listings. (This may have already been asked for as well in some way.)

Needs more animations for when you enter. On the floor doesn't make sense if you're returning to it after clearing it. And just in general each of those situations (Fresh abyss and returning) should/could have 3-5 different possible animation/voice-overs, and probably not even odds of getting any specific ones. (I think this has been mentioned before in some form. I understand this one is a bit time/resource intensive.)
